Problem
Solution
Cannot monitor an NT
machine on a different NT-
domain.
You should ensure that you can also login in the other
domain (i.e. the login name in which you entered the
controller machine, must also have an account at the
monitored machine domain.)
Cannot monitor an NT
machine (An error
message is issued:
"computer_name not
found" or "Cannot connect
to the host")
The NT machine you want to monitor, only enables
monitoring for users with administrator privileges. In
order to allow monitoring for non-admin users, you
must grant read permission to certain files and
registry entries (Microsoft tech-note number
Q158438.) The required steps are:
a. Using Explorer or File Manager, give the user
READ
access to:
%windir%\system32\PERFCxxx.DAT
%windir%\system32\PERFHxxx.DAT
where
xxx is the basic language ID for the system,
for example, 009 for English. These files may be
missing or corrupt. If you suspect this; expand
these files off of the installation cd.
b. Using REGEDT32, give the user READ access to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft
\
Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib
and all sub keys of that key.
c. Using REGEDT32, give the user at least READ
access
to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\Current
ControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\winreg
