I have been trying to document my install using the vm appliance, but I've not completed it yet.
In the mean time I would suggest looking in the forum for the thread "Major WMI issues". I explained much of what I went through to get zenwin installed and working in my environment. You can also checkout the wiki: http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/wiki/HowToSetupZenWin - Ryon -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Spirko Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 8:57 AM To: General discussion of using zenoss system Subject: RE: [zenoss-users] WinService Has a definitive guide been written that explains the installation process for ZenWin? I am currently using the Zenoss VMware appliance and have ZenWin services installed on the same server as the VMA. I am able to pull service information from the Zenoss machine and my DC, but not from any other domain member servers. I really would like to be able to gather additional information from all my windows boxes without installing additional agents. If could get ZenWin to work I think this would satisfy my needs (for now). Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------------------- Jason Spirko Systems Administrator Xoran Technologies Inc. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kristopher D.

You definitely need it for XP/2K3.

I do not have it installed on my 2k server either but it seems to be working there. Do I need it for XP or 2k3 servers? ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kristopher D.

The others are 2003 and xp. I am not sure how to verify WMI errors. I did install WMI on my 2003 server earlier today to see if that fixed the issue but has not of yet. ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kristopher D.

We have 1 server at our office that I am monitoring and the others are at a hosting facility. The only server that shows WinService is our server here in the office.
