HI All,

I am using SCCM CB 2006 and i am trying to manage VPN client subnets. Seems the ports are all opened but the communication or policy request is not getting updated. I have configured the boundary group with IP range and assigned to primary site. Still it is not showing active in the console. Please suggest. Below are the logs

    Hi,

    Clientlocation.log showing Unable to retrieve AD forest + domain membership may indicate some network/authentication issue, other than sccm itself.

    As yannara suggested, we may check the communication first, by running gpupdate or nltest.

    If it succeeds, we may try the following in a web browser of a client computer to see if the communication with MP is ok

    Based on your screens, make first sure that your AD connection via VPN works. What happends if you write gpupdate on a vpn client, will it fail?

    This is clearly a networking issue at this point. You should first get this sorted out with your networks team.
