RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Installing WhatsUp Gold Windows Events service on remote servers

[Eyster, Daniel]

I figured out what the problem was.  I needed to have the service start as the administrator of our domain.  Once I made that change, I started to receive email alerts from the event viewer.   Dan   -----Original Message----- From: Eyster, Daniel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 12:54 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Installing WhatsUp Gold Windows Events servic e on remote servers   Tim,   Thanks for the reply.  However, I still can't get WUG to receive event viewer information from remote servers.  All the servers are 2000 DC's and have the WMI installed on them.  Auditing is turned on on all the servers and I have the events defined in WUG.  As I said before, it works on the server that has WUG installed, but that's all.  TIA for any help.   Dan     -----Original Message----- From: Tim Farley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 11:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [WhatsUp Forum] Installing WhatsUp Gold Windows Events service on remote servers   No, you don't need to install anything on the systems being monitored, as long as they are running Windows 2000 or XP.  If they are running NT 4.0 you might need to install the Windows Management Instrumentation Core (WMI CORE), which is a component of Windows that comes from Microsoft.   The WhatsUp Gold Windows Events service runs only on the WUG system to act as the collector.   --Tim Farley   IPSWITCH -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Eyster, Daniel Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2003 11:13 AM To: ' ([EMAIL PROTECTED])' Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Installing WhatsUp Gold Windows Events service on remote servers We have just over 100 domain controllers in our domain (one per county).  I would like to set up Whatsup Gold to monitor there security event viewer logs for authentication failures.  I know I need the WhatsUp Gold Windows Events (winevnt.exe) service running on them, however, I cannot figure out how to install it.  I have looked on ipswitch's website, but I haven't found anything about it.  Any ideas?  TIA for any help.   Dan Eyster Lockheed Martin Space Ops MCP+I, MCSE NT4.0/2000 (717) 705-5140 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
