can you connect to admin$ on the client usin the client push account? If not, then you will have to fix that problem first.Kent Agerlund | http://scug.dk/ | The Danish community for System Center products

I am not sure but could you please guide me how would i check and confirm that I can connect to admin$ on the client using client push account? Thanks for your help in advance.Sumeet Khokhani

Hi, It think it will be easiest if you logon as the client push account, click Start, Run and type \\pcname\admin$ and see if you can connect.Kent Agerlund | http://scug.dk/ | The Danish community for System Center products

Hi, From the ConfigMgr server/Computer Management connect to one client machine then go to Services and Applications/WMI Control and right click then Properties, see if there is an error ... if so, if the Windows/third-party firewall is enabled on the client machine, so make sure that the WMI is authorized http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb694088.aspx ; in addition, enable the remote adminitration exception on the client machine http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb490616.aspx and try to install the client again and see the log file.

Sumeet, The log text above show that the client DID install, why do you think that it didn't install?http://www.enhansoft.com/

Hi, Could you please check the whether the client has been successfully installed on the computer? Could you find Configuration Manager icon in control panel? The error translates to "WBEM_E_INVALID_NAMESPACE". If the client has been installed, personally I will disgard the error line in the log.Please remember to click Mark as Answer on the post that helps you, and to click Unmark as Answer if a marked post does not actually answer your question.

Can you check if there is any firewall or antivirus blocking?Juan Manuel Cedeo / http://elrincondecedeno.blogspot.com/ The only site in Spanish about SCCM and Deployment
