Unable to perform "Perfmon" to a remote Windows XP Pro workstation

Problem:
When attemtping to perform a "perfmon" from any of my Windows based servers
to one particular Windows XP Pro workstation, I get an "unable to connect"
error immediatly on the server I am trying to execute the perfmon from. It's
almost like it does not even attempt to make a connection to the remote
Windows XP Pro workstation to pull the performance counter information.


Knowns:
1. The id I am using with "perfmon" is an ID that is part of the domain
administrators group.
2. The Domain administrator global group is defined in the remote Windows XP
Pro's local administrators group.
3. I am able to connect with the same ID used with perfmon to make
connections to the remote Windows XP Pro's drives and add and delete anything
on the remotes drives.
4. I have verified diskperf was activated on the remote system.
5. I followed Microsofts KB300702, which did not help me so I removed the
specific user ID (used with perfmon) from the documented areas and just left
the local administrator group in the documented areas.


Question:
Can anyone help me with this issue?


Thanks

Gary
