Installation Fails with an "Error 53"

Goto the SMS Home Page

 
I have an SMS 2.0 Primary with about 100 Secondary Sites.  There are no trusts etc so I just use the SMSSender accounts to send out installations.

On one Site it's installed OK but the console says its pending.  I turned on logging and the remote server says an Error 53.

I've checked the password is OK and that the remote site can connect OK.  Any ideas?

Error 53" is "Computer not found". This indicates name resolution or physical connectivity to the computer in question.  It's possible you mistyped the computer name in the address to the child site.

You could check the address created for that child account to verify.
