I understand that according to KB977384 you need to install the hotfix on all: Primary and secondary site servers Remote administrator console servers (Remote Configuration Manager consoles) Remote provider servers (SMS Provider) Client computers but on what systems other than the site server do I actually need to install R3 on by running the splash.hta? My SMS Provider is on a seperate server so do I just need to install the hotfix or do I also need to install R3? What about all the remote admin consoles? Again, just install the hotfix or both the hotfix and R3?

Thanks Kent. I finally found this: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/shitanshu/archive/2010/05/04/part-1-configuration-manager-r3-beta-deployment-in-microsoft-it.aspx which has a table that does a good job of showing what needs to be installed and where. Just wish Microsoft would have included something like this in their final RC documentation since a lot of us don't trust beta documentation.

I just completed installing SCCM 2007 R3 RTM on my site server and installed the hotfix KB977384 on all my clients via the package/program yet the client version = 4.00.6487.2153. Is that right? I find other articles out there that state the client version for RTM should be 4.00.6487.2157.
