We ar running WUG 8.x on a Windows 2000 Server and all domains we are monitoringa are also W2k domains. We have made a new user account on the WUG server wich is named the same as the account we use on the customers domains - with the same password. We are not having any problems restarting any services on the other domains. We have not tested this in a NT 4 enviroment, however.

Per your suggestion on our WUG server, we entered a similar script. We have a successful connection using an account with admin privileges to the ipc process on a domain controller in the target domain The security logs(from server in target domain) shows a successful connection But WUG continues to fail when trying to restart the service. WUG map detects it is down but is unable to restart it on its own Target domain is a win 00 AD domain. Is that a problem? On the source domain it is a standard NT 4.0 domain Again and further assistance is appreciated.

We are performing monitoring of services on our customers domains and we have made a script wich runs every time the WUG server start. The script performs an IPC$ connect to the domain controller with an account wich have administrator privilige on the remote domain. net use \\[SERVER_IP]\IPC$ /USER:[DOMAIN]\[USERNAME] [PASSWORD] Hope this helps Regards Alf Ove Gaasland Netpower ICT -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 1. august 2003 19:44 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] How Do you Restart NT/2000/XP services on a server that is in a different domain than the WUG server.
