SYMPTOMS
========

Once a Systems Management Server (SMS) package has been created, it is possible
to set the package option "Update distribution points on a schedule." However,
once this option has been set, the option cannot be cleared. You can clear the
option; however, if you exit the property page and then view again, the option
is still selected.



STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. service pack for
Systems Management Server version 2.0. For information on obtaining the service
