The Intel WS-MAN Translator build 568 has just been released.  The new features of this build included:

 

  • Validated with Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 Service Pack 2
  • Enhances legacy support for wireless profiles, 8021.x profiles, and 3rd party data storage
  • Enhanced Kerberos authentication and Kerberos ticket handling

 

There are known issues and feature gaps with the previous versions (builds less than 568) of the Intel WS-MAN and Microsoft SCCM SP2.  It is recommended that customers upgraded to Intel WS-MAN Translator build 568 when upgrading to SCCM SP2.  SCCM SP1 customers will also see stability and performance increases by upgrading to this WS-MAN Translator build.
