SYMPTOMS
========

When you install a Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) site or the SMS
Administrator console on Windows NT 4.0 Terminal Server Edition, you may receive
the following error message:

  You cannot install an SMS Primary site server, secondary site server or SMS
  Administrator console on a Windows NT Terminal Server running on Windows NT
  4.0.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
