dstearns94 -> App deployment to Remote users (5/7/2008 11:28:14 AM)

All, I'm somewhat new to the SMS world, so hopefully I don't ask questions that are too silly.   Anyway, I'm having an issue with what I think to be BITS related but I'm not sure.   I have set up an few different packages and I have deployed them just fine to users that are on the LAN.  However, that very same package will not deploy to the remote user.  I believe I have the subnets set up correctly so the remote user can hit the distribution point.  I noticed in the console that the client receives the advertisement and on one occasion  on a spare laptop I keep in my home that a folder on the client system was created ( C:\WINDOWS\system32\CCM\Cache\Packge folder) but the files do not push down.    I checked some of the log files, but I really don't know what to look for, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

how are the remote clients connected? via vpn?

Not sure what happened but somehow I would log in to MyITForum and it said I was logged in as a guest, I could not reply.  Anyway I created a new log-on, "dstearns94" is now "dstearns213".   Yes jmlewis, the end users that do not receive the package are tunneled in over a VPN.

ok. we have the same issue with users via the vpn receiving packages and connecting via remote tools. i think it has to be because of the limited bandwith or something. i will see if i can find any sort of answer for you and post.

see if this makes any sense. i found this part of the article on MS TechNet. it relates to SCCM 2007 but it all sounds relative.

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb694288.aspx


If clients assigned to the site can install software updates and run advertisements when they are directly connected to the intranet but not when they are connected over a virtual private network (VPN) connection, this is likely to be a configuration issue related to boundaries and the software update deployment or advertisement configuration. If you haven't defined the VPN scope used by these clients as a boundary for their assigned site, the VPN connection will be considered to be within a slow network boundary. You will also see this issue if you have defined the VPN scope as a boundary but it is configured as a slow network boundary rather than a fast network boundary. In either of these scenarios, if software update deployments or advertisements are configured to not install for clients connected to a slow network boundary (the default configuration), VPN clients will not be able to access this content until they are connected directly to the intranet (on a defined, fast network boundary).

Thank you, I will review this and let you know what happens.



dstearns213 -> RE: App deployment to Remote users (5/13/2008 8:48:58 AM)

jmlewis, just wanted to write back and let you know after reading over the link you provided I took a closer look at the Boundaries set up in my SMS Server.   You were right on; I had two subnets that were listed in both the roaming boundary section and the site boundary section.    I removed the two subnets from the roaming boundary section and everything seems to be working fine now.   Thank you!
