Because there are many challenges to control in ConfigMgr, I will post another blog about handy tips and tricks! This time I will order them on subject, so it's easy to find the right one!

Everybody knows there are some challenges when installing, configuring and managing ConfigMgr 2007. With SMS 2003 that was the same, a great product when it works, but a lot of frustration when it doesn't.
