10.4 Server Admin Tools Won't Install on Leopard Client

I've got some Mac OS X 10.4.10 servers to admin, but it seems I can't do it in Leopard? I've downloaded the 10.4.7 server admin tools, but it says:

"You cannot install Server Administration Software on this volume. You are not allowed to install the software on this disk for an unknown reason."

When when I choose which volume to install to.

Has anyone else come across the problem?

Yeah.

I ordered my copy of Server because of it...

EDIT: Just copied the apps from my server and works fine. Seems that the installer only adds the apps, and they have no dependancies - yay!

I upgraded Leopard with the Server Tools preinstalled and they still work?

Yeah, I did a clean install and I am attempting to install them from the package.

I got a copy of the actual apps, copied them over from a 10.4 box and it works - so I think Apple need to release an update for the 10.4 server tools to work on Leopard client.

That's a really unhelpful error message! "for an unknown reason".....
