DS Client for Vista

This is from the DS manual.
"The DAgent installation program is contained in the Agents\AClient folder on the
Deployment Share. To install, launch the installation MSI on the computer using an
admininstrator account, and complete the prompts.
To install the client-side, graphical, DAgent Configuration Utility (this utility is similar to
the client-side configuration GUI installed with AClient), select the Dagent Config
option. The graphical configuration utility is not installed by default."

I gave up and went to 6.9.

I gave up and went to 6.9. Now I have the agents like I should in \\localhost\express\Agents\AClient

The biggest thing I learned from all this is:

Deployment Server for Clients is the 32bit SA console aka Altiris_DeploymentSolutionWin_6_9.exe (only available at altiris.com)

Deployment Solution for NS is Altiris_DeploymentSolution_6_9.exe (available from solutionsam)

It makes sense when you are using the latest version, but when you have to pull an archived version it was a rat race tracking things down. Hopefully someone else will see this and not waste half their weekend on installs like myself

BTW, the new 6.9 feature where the Agent Update job is auto-assigned and scheduled is a nice feature. No more worrying about flooding the network with Aclient installs on 400+ client environments.
