SYMPTOMS
========
Advertisements that require a specific drive letter to execute do not execute on
the first attempt if the required drive letter is already mapped and the
advertisement is not scheduled. When you select Run Now, the running program is
present on the taskbar but the program executable is never actually started.
However, after repeated attempts, the program may start.
RESOLUTION
==========
To work around this problem, the advertisement can be scheduled to run at a
future date instead of choosing Run Now. After you do so, the advertisement will
execute successfully on the first attempt when it is scheduled.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server
version 2.0.
