Hello, First, a few things out of the way: AD schema has been extendedClient has been installed and assigned (at some point in the past)Site exists under System Management in ADBoundary exists in SCCM and so does the site in AD.Clients at other sites have no issue.Tried restarting and reinstalling client and rebooting machine (laptop).Firewall is off on client and server.Can telnet to LDAP ports 389 and 636. It seems there is something that's not quite right with the branch server at this location. It is a DC and when I look in AD on the branch server everything is there. For some reason the client just can't seem to get the SLP from AD and I don't know why. I see messages in the Location Services log that show it cannot retrieve SLPs from AD. Then it attempts WINS but that of course does not need to be set up. Are there test LDAP quereis that I can run or some other way to pinpoint the issue? Thanks, Steve

Which command lines are you using to install the client?Kent Agerlund | My blogs: blog.coretech.dk/kea and SCUG.dk/ | Twitter: @Agerlund | Linkedin: Kent Agerlund

Three questions: Are you in Native Mode? What type of boundaries are you using? Are you using supernets? Nicholas Jones, MCITP | Core Infrastructure Consultant | Sparkhound | https://www.mcpvirtualbusinesscard.com/VBCServer/nicholas.jones/profile

This is some info that you could look at and find the details. please post elaborate info of locationservices.log and ClientIDManagerStartup.log to understand more of this issue. To know more abt the SLP and the logic behind it http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb632435.aspx To check the details of this issue,just to be doubly sure of the details http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/configmgrsetup/thread/a638fde3-e2d3-4b40-baa1-21cc18ec2442 Another perspective which has worked for me http://blogs.technet.com/b/configurationmgr/archive/2009/08/10/troubleshooting-issues-where-clients-are-not-reporting.aspx let me know if this works.
