Having an issue running tasks on machines via the ghost console

 

I've made a package using the AI utility, the package is on the server along with the ghost console install, each machine can be seen in the correct Ghost console folder

 

How i want to run this task to install an application on 30 machines in a classroom, but when the task starts it gives me the "changing logon settings - success" status but goes no further

 

When i log into one of the machines i get "Your machine has been chosen to participate in an administrative task that may require it to be restarted, we recommend that you save any work in progress immediately" as it should but it says under that "beginning task in x seconds" and the seconds are not moving and it just sits there

 

What could be causing this?

 

EDIT: Actually, ignore the bit where its stuck on "x" seconds, it now gives me "a task is in progress on this machine" but it isn't actually doing anything

 

For the record the package is about 240mb in size

Nevermind, it's now fixed

 

Appears multicast isnt working on part of our network, setting both the console and task to unicast has fixed the issue temporarily
