Windows WMI: Permission and Plugin time out

[hbceylan]

Hi, I have added a few windows server using with wmi monitoring wizard on nagiosxi with administrator rights user.But it's doesn't work.The error is wrong username and password or access level problem.The user have administrator right in the server(status unknown in the sshot-259), also I have changed checking user with local administrator account (null in the sshot-259) again it doesn't work.

Another problem, IIS and SMTP service monitor is running smoothly before, the plugin is timed out suddenly.(status unknown in the sshot-258)

Why these happened?

Could you please help me, thanks.

Did you add the required permissions as laid out in this document?

Additional rights need to be given beyond the user being an Administrator.

additionally, you can test by running WBEMTEST from a remote windows machine to ensure WMI can be remotely accessed.

start > run > WBEMTEST

Can you create a separate post for the IIS SNMP issue.
