I am unable to to use the UNC check to connect to the default admin shares on some of my windows 2003 server machines. I just get a status of unknown. There are no authentication failures (or sucess) in the event log on the target server.
If I create a new share at the root of the drive, I can connect to that just fine...but not the admin share (c$, d$, etc.)....
Does anybody know why this is so and how to fix it?
Thanks

What error do you see in Reply field? You may enable "Show errors description in "Reply" field when cannot access resource" option in "Options" > "Miscellaneous" tab > "UNC test related options" area. With this option enabled, HostMonitor will put error description in "Reply" field in case "UNC" test cannot access to resource.
Is HostMonitor started as a service or as an application? Have you specified admin account in "Conect as" box in "Test Properties" window of UNC test? Do you use "Connection Manager" to specify appropriate account? http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/mfra ... htm#conmgr

Enabling that error display allowed me to track down the problem
