Help: PERFMON4 from XP to 2000, different domains...

[FB]

using PERFMON4 I am trying to read counters from a 2000 Server but I can't
because I am logged on XP as admin of domain1 while 2000 is part of
domain2...

there's trust relationship between domain1 and domain2, both ways...

if I log on XP as domain2 admin I can read them without problem...

I tried setting permissions on the Perflib registry entries but it didn't
work...

any clues?

Try adding your user account to the local administrators group of the
servers. If there are a lot of servers that can be done via Group Policy
startup scripts or Group Policy Restricted Groups. If you want to use
Restricted Groups to manage groups on domain workstations implement it at
the OU level and NOT at the domain level. --- Steve
