I noticed that the default cache size is too small for our
needs. How can I change the default cache size without
touching each machine? We will have about 4000 clients and
changing the cahce size manually is not an option.

When you deploy the client you can use the SMSCACHESIZE option to set the
cache size to a bigger value.

Another way to do it would be via scripting. The following piece of code
checks whether the cache size is less than 250MB and sets the cache size to
1000MB if its less than 250 MB.
You can run this VBS on all clients whose cache size you want to increase.

SetCacheSize.VBS

Dim nValueToCheck
Dim nValueToSet

Dim oUIResource
Dim oCache

Set oUIResource = CreateObject("UIResource.UIResourceMgr")
Set objCacheInfo = oUIResource.GetCacheInfo

nValueToCheck = 250
nValueToSet = 1000

' Set the cache size if it's less than or equal to 250
if objCacheInfo.TotalSize <= nValueToCheck then
objCacheInfo.TotalSize = nValueToSet
end if

Thanks for the quick reply.

Sorry for my ignorance as I am an SMS newbie.

We are using the auto push feature so as soon as a system
is discovered it will push the client. I have not seen any
configurations for this. Is there do***entation that goes
over this? I've gone through the concepts and planning
guide as well as the admin docs and I even purchased the
book from microsoft press, but I havn't found any info on
this (maybe I just missed it?). Could you please point me
in the right direction as far as configuring this? Again
thanks for all of your help.

You should post this question in microsoft.public.sms.setup. Those guys will
be able to send you pointers to docs.

If you are using Client push, goto (Site settings > Client Installation
methods) 'Client Push Installation Properties' page (Advanced client tab)
and there you can specify the cache size as another installation parameter.
