STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 2.0 This problem was first corrected in Systems Management Server version 2.0 Service Pack 2..



MORE INFORMATION
This hotfix needs to be applied to all workstations and servers that have the SMS Administration console installed. Secondary site servers, by default, do not have the SMS Administration console installed and do not need this hotfix applied unless the Administration console was also installed on that site.

To install the hotfix, use the appropriate method on the Systems Management Server site server.

Method 1: Using the Hotfix Installer
NOTE: You can only use this method on I386-based computers.
 * 1) Copy the hotfix folder structure to a share on your network. Q241734.exe is a Microsoft Windows Installer file that updates specific files on your site server.
 * 2) Log on to your site server using an account with administrative privileges.
 * 3) On the site server, close the Systems Management Server Administrator console.
 * 4) Run Q241734.exe and follow the directions in the wizard. You can run the file in Quiet mode using the /s switch.

Method 2: Manual Installation
 Quit the Systems Management Server Administrator console and stop the Windows Management service. Replace the Sms_musr.dll file in the \bin\  folder with the version obtained from the hotfix. At a command prompt, type the following command:

cd \bin\  regsvr32 sms_musr.dll

 Restart the Windows Management service and the Systems Management Server Administrator console.
