 Posted: Mon Aug 05, 2019 3:18 pm Post subject: Server not found or responding. Error #70: Permission denie |
 |
|
I know what the culprit is, but first, let me give you the info:
I am running a VBS HD Script from HostMonitor. If needed, I can post the code I am using. When I run this test against a Windows 7 station, it responds back with the primary Drive Letter, Percentage Free, and (GB Free). For example, C:42%(98.5).
When I run this test on a Windows 10 station, I get "Server not found or responding: Error #70 Permission denied."
I am using the Connection Manager, and I only have one domain account listed that has full Administrative privileges. HostMonitor is installed on a Windows 2008 R2 server, the workstations above are both on the same Domain.
I have verified that WMI is configured on both stations, along with Remote Registry. I can ping both stations by name and IP address. I can browse to each station thru Windows Explorer by name or IP, using the same Domain credentials.
Every Windows 10 station I run this test on replies with the same error. I have even tried putting the FQDN into the test with no change in result.
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

What about built-in Drive Free Space test? Does it work? or returns the same error?
Why you are not using this test? Because it shows disk with lowest amount of free space while you want to see several disks (all disks with free space below limit)?

As I understand "when I run this test on a Windows 10" means script actually running on Windows 2008 R2 (HostMonitor system) but it tries to get data from Windows 10 system (same domain)?

When I use the built-in Drive Space test on a Windows 10 station, it returns Error: Access is denied. This station is on our domain.
When I use the built-in Drive Space test on a Windows 7 station, the test runs as designed and returns a value. This station is on the same domain as the Windows 10 station.
Correct, HostMonitor is running on my R2 server, and it is running the test against Windows (7 and 10) stations. The server is on a Workgroup, not on the domain with the computers it is running tests against.
Here is an interesting note: When I run this test against a Windows 10 station not on the domain, but on a Workgroup, the test runs successfully. But in the Connection Manager, the one and only account I have is for our domain account, which does not have any rights over the Workstation computers (it is not added or referenced at all in the Local Computer Users and Groups).
I am able to run other tests against Windows 10, such as CPU Usage, Services running, file availability, etc. And I have not manually added in the test itself what account to use. Everything should be running thru the Connection Manager credentials, if credentials are necessary. |

I would recommend to run HostMonitor on domain server or use RMA (Remote Monitoring Agent) started on domain system.
However we tested similar config (HM on non_domain_host, Windows 7 and Windows 10 domain systems) and we cannot reproduce the problem, HostMonitor was able to check Drive Free Space on Windows 7 and Windows 10
May be you are using account without necessary rights?
(theoretically Windows7 and Windows10 require the same set of rights)

I think if you are using WMI in external script, then you should connect to remote system using specific account (specified in your script).
But in your case this probably will not help..
I think Dominant Process and Memory tests fail as well?
