Hi,

I am having trouble assigning the site code to around 250 machines and these machines seems to have the similar issue with regards to the client assignment.

I have been working on this issue from past few days and tried all the possible troubleshooting steps with no luck.

So here is the environment details.

---------------------------------------------------------

Central Site - does not support any client. SLP is installed here

Primary 1 - support clients and this is the site where we are facing issues.

Primary 2 - support clients

--------------------------------------------------------

• AD extended
• Boundaries added
• DNS publishing is enabled
• SLP is configured in central site and also published in WINS server.
• WINS server setting are passed to client machines.
• 80,443,445,3268,3269 - No issues with these ports from client side.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Please advise.

Thank You.

If you look at the client, does it have a assigned site code in the client control panel?

Site code returned from WMI is <>

Was the client install set to Auto or a forced site code?

Client does not have site code assigned to it in control panel.

The client install was set to AUTO.

I also tried forcing the site code by including it in client installation command line "SMSSITECODE=<sitecode>"

Note: Did not mention SLP and MP information in the command line.

below is the error from the Location service.log (Verbose and Debug logging is enabled)
