My client just self installed a Vista Business laptop into their network and comment that the Kix script I wrote for them doesn't seem to be working. It works fine on all the existing WinXP clients.
I'm going to visit the client for other matter including this one.
I didn't think there is an issue with Kix and Vista but thought I would check with the forum - just in case!!!
So, any issues with Kix and Vista?

Since all our systems are behind the corporate firewall, there are no local firewalls on the workstations. Aside from disabling the firewall, I haven't run into the same issues..
net use x: \\vistapc\c$ /user:vistapc\administrator P@ssw0rd just worked for me. Of course, the default installation leaves the administrator account disabled. I defined a password and enabled the account as part of the install process. If you don't do that, it won't work.
There are some anomolies, some (I think) due to outdated tools.. pslist \\VistaPC fails, but XNet List \\VistaPC works just fine. SIT 2.0 works well against Vista systems using a combination of remote registry, wmi, and other processes. Version 2.2 uses WMI almost exclusively, and works fine, including managing services, processes, and such.
I'll publish my configuration tasks when they're complete - might be useful to others..
