When you go to add device, you could also use "ping" monitoring and WMI, by setting the Discovery Protocol to None. Then you'll get the device added if it responds to pings, and in 15 minutes or so I think WMI will show up.

Note, you'll miss a lot of info without SNMP though. You won't get any graphs for CPU/Memory/HD space or network use. I think you won't get software list.

You will be able to do windows service monitoring, but not process monitoring as that uses SNMP. You'll be able to do ping based up/down monitoring of the server.

You'd have to look at Nagios plugins I think and custom graphs to try and get WMI performance counter based graphs instead of SNMP, or buy the Enterprise subscription from Zenoss.

Hi, I have started the vmware image in vmware player. Everything seems to work. I have added one device, its a windows 2000 proffesional. When I try to add another device, nothing happens.
I put in a dns name to one of our servers, then use /server/windows
I press add device, and it thinks for a while, but no log appear. Then i stops, and the device isnt added.
