SYMPTOMS
========
A Microsoft Window 2000-based client may not be installed. The Wn_remote.log
file may be encrypted. When you gain access to the Wn_remote.log file, the first
run shows that client assignment did not succeed because of an incorrect IP
address:
ASSIGNMENT *************************************** $$<CliEx32.dll>
Before adding new sites, there are 1 site keys and 0 sites in the site list $$<CliEx32.dll>

After a reboot, you see that CliEx32 did not initialize:
Begin CliEx processing. $$<C:\WINNT\MS\SMS\CORE\BIN\Boot32wn.exe>
ERROR: Load of DLL CliEx32.dll failed (C:\SMSDIR\MS\SMS\CORE\BIN\cliex32.dll) The specified module could not be found.~~ $$<C:\WINNT\MS\SMS\CORE\BIN\Boot32wn.exe>

Unable to continue; exiting $$<C:\WINNT\MS\SMS\CORE\BIN\Boot32wn.exe>
The next two reboots will show Client Configuration Manager (CCM) attempting to
install the client but not succeeding.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if the Windows 2000-based client's SMS_LOCAL_DIR folder
is encrypted. This does not allow the service to access the necessary files.
Most of the core client files are copied to the client, but are not entered in
the registry as being installed, so optional components are not installed.
WORKAROUND
==========
Remove the encryption from the SMS_LOCAL_DIR folder.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0.
