SYMPTOMS
When you are using the keyboard in a Systems Management Server (SMS) remote control session, the client's keyboard may become stuck, and may not respond when you press keys. If you go to the remotely-controlled computer, pressing certain keys in the remote control session may create unexpected results. For example, when you press the apostrophe (') key, you may receive the following result:
'7777777777777777777777777777->
CAUSE
This problem may occur if the Administrator console is running a 101-key keyboard and the remote control client is running a 106-key keyboard (Japanese).
