Package does exactly what it is supposed to in that case. When pushed to a Windows server that did not already have the Universal forwarder, everything worked.</P> Wed, 12 Jun 2013 19:04:48 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/Deployment-Problems-with-SCCM/m-p/55682#M10886 LiquidTension 2013-06-12T19:04:48Z
