Newly instaled XP clients disappear from EM 3.0 console

NLNAV

Hello,

I'm having a strange problem. Since a few days my newly deployed XP clients disappears from my Em 3.0 console when i comply them with the group policy.

Situation.

We are upgrading our clients from w2k to XP with an pre configured image. Sophos is already installed in this image. The client appears in the em console when it joines the domain.

The status showing in em is "differs from policy" and "waiting for response from computer". After the "comply with group policy" action the client disappears from the em console.

The client reappears again after a reboot and has the same status as mentioned above.

Does anyone have an idea?

Regards,

Peter

    Hm, I must admit that I'm a little bit confused. Let's see ...

    So you did a fresh install of SEC3.0 (why not SEC4.0) and using the new CID(s) you built the image and you did not transfer the database? Then the client appears in the em console when it joins the domain - it should do so "immediately" (unless it can't reach the server before it's in the domain). Which policy differs? Updating? If so - what's the difference (if you can spot it)? The consoles are not on DCs, are they?

    Guess we need some more details. And what does the Network Communications Report on the client say?
