The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Systems Management Server version 1.2 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

During a Remote Control session with a Windows 95 client computer, if the
administrator clicks Shut Down on the remote client's Start Menu, the client
computer may hang or experience a blue screen failure. When the administrator
presses CTRL+ALT+DEL, the client does not reboot and a physical reset of the
client computer is required.

Systems Management Server version 1.2 supports Remote Reboot through the HelpDesk
Reboot button, and does not support shutting down a client computer using the
Quick Windows viewer. Shutting down a Windows 95 client through Quick Windows
viewer may result in data loss on the Systems Management Server client.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 1.2. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
