My tip of the day for anyone wanting to do a large scall domain rollout of xp or vista.....turn off the firewall on your workstations before you start to deploy software.
I have run in to numerous problems when imaging workstations with system centre config manager, thanks to the xp firewall. It stop our AV definitions updating, it stopped remote control client from working, it sopped windows updates running internally etc etc
We have a firewall protecting our external traffic, so an internal firewall would literally become an adminitrative nightmare.
I've just spent 2 hours wondering why Symantec AV definitions were not updating on our newly imaged PCs. Thanks Microsoft.....
