I am having a bit of trouble getting the perfmon checks to work in Servers Alive when accessing a remote server.  I have the latest version of SA running on a standard build of Windows 2003 Standard server.  When I try to check perfmon on any server other than the local one I am getting access denied errors:

 

Tuesday, November 22, 2005 1:41:44 PM machine.domain.com Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,_Total) gave errorAccess is denied. ( 5)

 

I have configured these tests to authenticate before checking with a user that is a member of Domain Admins AD group (note: we are running a Windows 2000 AD environment).  Additionally, Domain Admins is in the Administrators group on the servers.  I’ve worked with Dirk on this a bit and it seems to be an issue with Windows 2003’s use of ANONYMOUS LOGON and Windows 2000’s use of the EVERYONE logon when the initial connection is made.

 

I checked the mail list archives and didn’t see anything obvious.  Can anyone running in this configuration (SA on W2K3) give me some ideas?  Hopefully I am missing something real simple.

Thank you in advance,

 

Eric
