Event Viewer cannont connect to remote WinXP SP2 event viewer

[Russell]

Within EVENTVWR.MSC, Select Connect to Another Computer.

I successfully connect to any remote Windows 2003 or 2000 event viewer logs.
I always fail when connecting to remote WinXP SP2 machines. Error is:

"Unable to connect to the computer 'computer name or ip address here' The
error was Access Denied."

I am logged on to local PC with a domain account that is member of Domain
Admins. All PCs are domain members. I have turned off Windows Firewall on
remote Win XP machines. This is all being done on a private LAN segment.
(i.e. no firewalls other than Windows Firewall involved.) Does not seem to
be AV related either. Would appreciate any suggestions. thanks, Russell
