    I have been trying to install the Stirling client beta on a 64 bit Windows 7 beta with no luck.  Is there a trick or is it not supported?

    Hello!
    This is functional with FCS v2 Beta 2 - we have TAP customers and internal users here at Microsoft running FCS v2 Beta 2 against Win7 Beta (Build 7000) and Win7 RC (build 7100)

    Thanks
    Chris

    I have FFS setup with SCOM2007 and AD group policy to get the FF client installation through WSUS.  I did not have a problem getting this to deploy with the XP machines but am running a test WIN7 x 64  box and though he is managed by SCOM2007 and FFS sees him as having the wrong policy he is not getting the full FF client installation - when I go to the box and look at the FF information all that is available is the uninstall client option.  So I am running the uninstall and rebooting and going to see if he picks this up through group policy correctly.  Is there any intent to have a process available from within the FF console that would let you generate a pushed or manual client installation on a discovered device?

    I tried the reinstall and the FFAgent gets installed correctly but the client/gui component does not.
