SMS client required rights?

[Barkley Bees]

We have recently deployed some systems to a small sales office. These
systems are unique, compared to our run of the mill clients, in that users
will not have local admin rights. After having set up these systems and
logging in we notice that the SMS client does does not autodiscover the site
code. When clicking discover it also fails. Any ideas? Thanks.

That was the first thing that came to mind for me but they are correct. When
I log on with an admin account or connect remotely via the SMS Client Center
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/smsclictr) I can set the site code. We are
only experiencing this when a user with no local admin permission logs on. I
suppose I can set the site code for all these machines (~50 or so) and that
will be the end of it but it's rather strange.

You mention they do not autodiscovery automatically. If you remote in (or
walk a user through this over the phone), when they click the Discovery
button, does it discover a site, or not. Monitor the local logs, especially
with a failure. It could still be a boundary issue; for example if they
aren't 255.255.255.0, boundaries can be more fun.

If it does autodiscover, what method are you using to autodiscover
automatically? Run a script from a network / domain location -- to which
these workgroup computers do not have access? (And that would be the problem.
Just a wild guess of course, thinking outside the box).
