This is driving me nuts and I haven't been able to find an answer online
yet. Wondering if anyone else has run into this: I installed Vista
Enterprise on my Helpdesk PC and have been getting validation errors
when I try to add a software pkg in GPMC and when I attempt to access
our DHCP server, nothing comes up except the server name and 'server
option'. What am I missing? Thanks for any help.

Jack,



Questions outside of Group Policy are usually better suited for
newsgroups that focus on those technologies. However, in this case I was
able to find the following from the KB930056
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930056> , titled "You experience
installation errors and compatibility problems when you install Windows
Server 2003 management tools on a Windows Vista-based computer". Sounds
like this might be your problem.



DHCP Server Administration (dhcpmgmt.msc)

An administrator cannot view existing IPv4 scopes and IPv4 super-scopes
by using the Administration Tools Pack on a Windows Vista-based computer
to connect to a Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1-based computer.
Additionally, an administrator cannot create new IPv4 scopes on a
Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1-based computer.

Note If you do not see the scope information, apply hotfix 935988. For
more information about hotfix 935988, click the following article number
to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

935988 <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935988/>
(http://support.microsoft.com/kb/935988/ ) When you try to remotely
administer a DHCP server from a Windows Vista-based computer, you cannot
find the DHCP scopes

Darren, I used the stripped down version of Admin Studio to create the
msi. I've got a lot to learn about packaging so that makes sense. Any
ideas about why I can't see anything in DHCP? Thanks for the help.

Jack-

That sounds like an issue with the MSI. Windows Installer has this thing
called ICE Validation that tests to make sure the package database is
valid. I suspect you are hitting that. Did you self-package this app? It
could be an issue with the version of Windows Installer on Vista being
less tolerant of validation errors than XP.

Darren, Thanks for the quick reply. When I try to attach a package to a
GPO for distribution, I'm able to navigate to the package and select it
but it hangs for a minute and comes back with a message that the package
couldn't be verified, run validation. I'll post the exact message when
I get back to my desk. I'm re-imaging the lab with the Maple software
pkg I was having trouble with in my last post. But, what I've been
doing is remoting into another Helpdesk computer w/ XP and I'm able to
attach the pkg w/o a problem and it'll show up in my GPMC.

I've not heard of this one. What do you mean by "validation errors"?
