Waiting for the upcoming v2.3.0 release will give you the official fixes for 
Vista and Windows Server 2008 monitoring.

If you are adventurous and feel like patching you can fix the low-level 
communication code so that it will work with these newer OSes. This will let 
you monitor services, etc. using the existing 2.2.4 code but won't give you any 
of the additional WMI or PerfMon based monitoring that is in the Enterprise 
version (if you are an Enterprise customer).

The patch is this changeset: http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/changeset/9769

You can also download the WMI library that was built with this patch using this 
version: 
http://dev.zenoss.org/trac/browser/trunk/inst/externallibs/wmi-0.1.13.tar.bz2?rev=8639

This change was not tested much in the 2.2.x branches, but it is what it is key 
to be able to successfully communicate with these newer operating systems.
