Add SMS_SLP to a non-domain SCCM client
We upgraded to a new version on the client (4.00.6487.2148) and now it seems the client cannot find the SMS_SLP location according to LocationServices.log, can someone give me instructions or point me to a information on how to configure a non-domain/workgroup
member on how to resolve this naming - this is on SCCM 2007 R3 server.

To my knowledge, you can only set the SLP during client install (in a supported fashion) using the SMSSLP public property.Jason | http://blog.configmgrftw.com | Twitter @JasonSandys

Correct, how did you upgrade the client, did you just run ccmsetup.exe on it and wait for it to pull the client settings from registry?http://www.sccm-tools.com http://sms-hints-tricks.blogspot.com

If the SLP was not assigned during the installation of the clients, I suggest that you use WINS for this.

you can also do a .reg file with this. While probably not the recommended method But works if you have the client already installed and don't want to reinstall
32 bit
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\CCM]
"SMSSLP"="server.domain.com"
64bit os
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\CCM]
"SMSSLP"="server.domain.com"
Restart service and it should kick in

If the server locator point is not directly assigned during client installation, clients can locate it through Active Directory Domain Services or WINS:
...If you have not extended the Active Directory schema for either SMS 2003 or Configuration Manager 2007, clients can automatically find a server locator point if it is manually published in WINS and if clients have not been installed with the SMDDIRECTORYLOOKUP
installation property. For more information about manually publishing the server locator point in WINS, see
