Pete, thanks for the responce, but it still doen't make since to me. I am telling the system to use a specific SEP package, located in a specific path on my SEPM. After giving this information the SEPM says "Uploading". Why would it take several minutes for the system locate a package when I've told it exactly where it is?
The reason I ask this question is because, this has always been my preferred method to push small numbers of clients to our users (1 - 3). This process in previous verisons took less then a minute to deploy a client. Now, the process can take well over 5 minutes to depoly. If I'm not mistaking all this is doing is taking a prebuilt SEP package, copying it to the target system, and kicking off the installation. So, why all the extra steps to slow this process down?
