Oh, things like, you don't have sufficient access rights to check file
properties.

I know in the ideal world that every machine logs in to the domain and
every machine has Domain Admins in the Local Administrator group and
every machine has the SMS agent (or some similar agent) and reports all
its properties back to a management console and every machine can be
controlled remotely, etc., etc., etc., yada, yada, yada.

I just don't know where that ideal world is.
