UserName problems

Post by cdeal »

Using HM 5.88 on W2K3.

I am having some strange issues with the Connection manager.

If I add a WMI test. The only way I can get it to work is to use the connection manager and add the server name under "Server or Domain" and add the domain name to the Login field (domain\username). Any other combination does not work. Here is an entry from the ConnMgr.log when I do this:

" Login: domain\administrator@server Connection error #1219: Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again."

To get the perf. counter and other test that require a login, to work. I also have to enter the username/password on just one of the test for that server. Otherwise I get this in the ConnMgr.log:

"Login: domain\administrator@server Connection error #1326: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password"

Maybe the connection manager should sent the information to the server in this format "domain\administrator" and leave off the @. I have other servers that also require me to enter the Login info on the individual tests. It does not work when I use the connection manager and remove login's from all of the test.

Connection Manager establishes connections for all test methods except WMI. Manager stores information about WMI accounts but it does not perform connection. This means error was produced by some other test.
Why? Because you have specified domain\username as login.

Solution? If simple username does not work for WMI test (it works in our network), setup separate account for WMI test.
On the other hand, probably we can modify our code to include domain name in the request... Anybody else has the same problem?
