I had a similar situation and posted a message a few days ago. Check to see if your Remote Registry service is enabled and running. Ours was disabled for security reasons; enabling and starting it fixed the problem.

As a security measure NetBios has been turned off on these servers. On checks of the reote server, an error is returned: 1722 The RPC server is unavailable. The checks on the local machine though return ERR: 53 The network path was not found. I have tried using different addesses eg 127.0.0.1, 192.168.1.3 etc I am not so worried about the remote servers but would like to be able to check the local machine as all the checks are process and service related I there any way to resolve this without any additional services/protocols being installed?
