While recently working a Recovery Solution issue, we encountered some problems.  The clients could not register and SSM jobs were not completing.  Upon reviewing the Event Viewer logs, we saw a consistent sequence of errors

Hi Connect Members,

Any change which is intentional can be recorded, but in case if its not something not noticed & specially with workstations running windows Xp , it can create problems & disappointment when things dont work as expected, Than suddenly we think what has changed or what we have changed, No worries, not to think any more, Microsoft has a tool that will not only let u know what are the changes but help you to troubkeshoot the XP systems issues, It works in following scenario-

1. Software Programs—installed applications, such as those listed in Add/Remove Programs
2. Windows hotfixes and other OS updates
3. Windows drivers and services

Once the client machine boots up into the PreOS it will need an IP address to communicate with the Ghost Cast Server, and by default that IP address will come from the DHCP. When there is no DHCP server, the client machine will not get any IP address, hence, the machine will not be able to communicate with the Ghost Cast Server.

To force the PreOS WinPE or WinPE-512 to use a static IP address:

1. Go to "\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Ghost\Template\common\winpe\ghost" for WinPE and "\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Symantec\Ghost\Template\common\winpe-512\ghost" for WinPE-512
2. Remove the read only from start.bat
3. Edit start.bat using the notepad and add the following line between x: and cd \ghost

   netsh int ip set address local static 192.168.0.100 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1

   (IP address of 192.168.0.100 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0 and a Default Gateway of 192.168.0.1 would be set on...
