Question for the Window's gurus out there. I'm not really a 'windows guy' and 
don't have access to the Windows servers that I've been asked to monitor. 
Therefore, I'm using the NRPE VBScript setup developed by Groundwork to monitor 
some Windows servers via WMI. The NRPE-NT service runs on one box which I do 
have control over and this is also where the VBScript plugins live.

When running NRPE-NT as my own Windows account, I can check services on 
File/Print servers, but not Domain Controllers. I tried several other accounts 
that have various levels of access and receive different errors. I've been 
reduced to having one of our Domain Admins run this service under his account, 
which works. This was done temporarily to test that this method is possible, 
but cannot be used as a permanent solution. The goal is to have NRPE-NT run as 
an account with the minimum level of permissions to perform these service 
checks.

What level of access does the account that runs the NRPE-NT service need to 
have on all of the servers in order to function properly?
Thank you,
