The SMS Site Control Manager may log an error message when you view Site Status under the System Status node in the SMS Administrator console
In Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) 2003, you use the SMS Administrator console to view Site Status under the System Status node. When you do this, the SMS Site Control Manager may log the following error message:
ERROR: The "Site Definition" item in the master site control file "C:\SMS\inboxes\sitectrl.box\sitectrl.ct0" does not contain a "Property List" item named "NAL Reserved", or that item is corrupt.
This problem occurs when the encrypted network abstraction layer (NAL)
password for the SMS service account is missing
from the site control file.
To resolve this problem, you must reset the site system connection
account. To change the SMS service account, you must perform a site reset. To do this, follow these steps:
- Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Systems Management Server, and then click SMS Setup.
- Click Next two times.
- Click Modify or reset the current installation, and then click Next.
- Type the account and the password that you want to use for the SMS service account, and then click Next.
- Click Next three times, and then click Finish.
- Click Yes to continue and to reset the site.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
