Silly question but have you installed the snmp service on your W2K8 server?
See the admin guide here
http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.2.3/ch16s01.html and
here http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.2.3/ch16s07.html.

Note that some server vendors, e.g. Dell OpenManage, provide much more
comprehensive snmp suites than snmp-informant, so you're probably better off
installing that instead.  See
