I have .NET 2.0 SP1, .NET 3.0 SP1 and .NET 3.5 running on a Windows Server
2003 R2 SP2, fully patched. It is NOT a DC.

I have some WMI errors that apparently need .NET 3.5 SP1 (which isn't out
yet, and I've tried but can't get the hotfix that will correct the problem),
and am hoping that .NET 3.5 with n o errros in the WMI Diagnostic utility
will do the trick.

I ran it just now and it came back with a statement that WMI is operating
correctly. However, the .txt file that was generated had some errors that I
feel I should fix. However, I haven't a clue on how to do it in
WMIMGMT.MSC. Here's the errors:

Since these aren't the default, they may be significant errors for what I
want to do (install Office Sharepoint Server 2007). I don't know why I have
anything that is not default. I did a fresh install of the OS the other
day, joined it to a SBS domain and set it up as a Application Server.

Would sure appreciate any help/advice/comments.
