Status: failed (Access is Denied)

[The_Stranger]

I have a few Vista machines on the domain, this seems to be specific to 2 of them.  I created an install package, then a deployment task and pushed a test run to my vista computer.  This was successful.  Then I opened the Deployment Task and changed only the computer names to 2 other vista boxes.  This resulted in the error Status: failed (Access is Denied).

These 3 computers are all on the same domain, I used the domain admin account on the successful install and didn't change it when I pushed to the 2 computers that were unsuccessful. 

the install log:

Please replace the C:\Program Files\Alwil Software\Management Tools\aswRInst.dll file with this one:
http://public.avast.com/~peterka/4.7.657/aswRInst.dll
and try again.

Hi I have the same problem with my friend, and I replaced the dll file with the one you suggested but still I have this error message in my log file

by the way when I try to connect to that computer using "RUN" a window comes up and asks for network password, how can I eleminate that? Because I have entered the account name and password to the remote computer but still couldn't manage to eleminate that window.... I used the valid account name and password in installation package but still couldn't manage to deploy the product. Thanks for your help

Check the 'Simple File Sharing' option in Folder Options of the workstation. It must be disabled for the remote deployment to work.

I have tried that as well but still couldn't manage to deploy the product
I disabled the option in folder option which is "Use Simple File Sharing" but still it requires a network password when I use RUN to reach to the computers \\Computer\C$ folder...Anything else I can do?

And the log looks the same as before ?

I think it is normal that it requires a password, why do you expect it should not ?

[kemal.aldag]

Because it DOES NOT ASK any password from workstation to server, it asks from server to workstation. That's why. But still trying on it.
