This is standard DCOM/RPC stuff. So you have to open the following from the Zenoss server to the Windows servers. 135/tcp 445/tcp > 1023/tcp (yes, anything above port 1023 could be used) > _______________________________________________ This problem has really become a problem. As suggested from the zenoss documents Iâm using âsnmp informantâ as a gathering tool. I guess that it some how binds itâs self to snmp because I donât see it running as its own service. When I run the tool âSysinternals TCPView for windowsâ I donât see port 445 listening or connected and donât see âsnmp informantâ. And when I try to add port 445/tcp in windows firewall I get a message itâs already installed. Port 135/tcp no problem. I look at my firewall log on the windows server and see zenoss is still being dropped. So, I add the destination port reported in the log file âin this case 11879/tcpâ go back to zenoss and it works. So, Iâm REALLY confused why Iâm having this problem with my firewall settings and zenoss. Let me ask, if you were doing a clean install with zenoss, monitoring a windows server 2003 with the firewall turned on, what steps would you use? -Rick -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=34208#34208 -------------------- m2f --------------------
