LSClient and Active Scanning

[d_i_saunders]

Hi,

Little help required...

We have LSclient running on most of our PC's and its been working fine for a number of years..
We havejust upgarded to verison 3.5 as it can now be restricted to specific OU's..

We have pointed the service at the the OUs we want to scan..

My quesiton regarding this is:
1) Will it matter if a PC reports back via LSClient, and then picked up in the Active Scan? Will it just be skipped?
2) Can the OU filter be restricted to pc that match a specific filter? (eg starts UK**** )

Secondly is the Lansweeperservice.exe.config file still used?

If so is the line below not casuing it to go and scan anything it can see?

<add key="Activescanning" value="1" />

regards

dave

Most likely the problem is caused by the dns records not yet updated (or the location not accessible due to firewall settings)

That would fit.. out DNS takes days to update.

Is there anything not working at the moment (no scans done)?

Except for the vpn users.

The "System.DirectoryServices.Protocols.LdapDirectoryIdentifier The operation was aborted because the client side timeout limit was exceeded" error is caused by timeouts to your domain controllers

Do you get this error only when the vpn users log on or all the time using active scanning?
