Hi Everyone, One more happy SA user has joined the community. Great product, many features and competitively priced. Here’s my problem that I’d appreciate getting
some feedback on. I’ve set up a number of checks – both external
and internal. My definition of external and internal is as follows: Internal – servers located on the LAN in the same
domain External – servers I do checks via a Microsoft PPTP
vpn I run SA as a service and after some discussion with Dirk I’ve
installed the latest beta. Running as an app did not help either. My internal checks work, but some of my external stopped. I feel like I overloaded some service on the remote external
machines after numerous closely spaced checks. Mind you things worked for a couple of days after which I
was doing some fine tunning and external checks for disk space or NT services
give now a consistent down – which is not true. I basically make 2 checks to 2 different servers over the
pptp vpn – I still can see remote shares, services are running, nothing
has changed. I’ve made a ping check and dependent on it the disk
check – the ping is ok the disk not. I have the check on a 3rd external machine –
again over pptp vpn – this works fine, but I put it into maint. Til I resolve
this issue. I’ve rebooted one of the remote machines, I’ve
rebooted the SA server – no change. I get a tpical error in the event log 1203 … Wednesday, November 05, 2003 4:45:16 PM ping OK with a
successrate of 100% and an average roundtriptime of 91.4ms Wednesday, November 05, 2003 4:45:38 PM ERR: connect to host
failed: 1203(No network provider accepted the given network path.) But can find no specific solution or related problem. I use
the authentication box for the remote servers, no help. My SA server was w2k server, just upgraded to 2003 because I
can take over the console, which is great for SA as a service, and don’t
have the slow performance of bitmap related remote desktop controllers. The bottom line is it worked, SA can still do it on a third external
server, the internal servers, but not the 2 that have somehow died in the eyes
of SA. I’ve checked that the server service is running on the
remote machines – I can successfully do the net use * \\servername\c$ /u:username
* command. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I’d like to
set this up on our production machines asap. PS I’ve also created the registry dword which causes
SA to de-authenticates before a check – as suggested in the pdf manual –
did not help either. Best regards, Martin |
