Check Remote the Servers

We have offices on many different locations in The Netherlands (Amsterdam, Utrecht, Rotterdam). We want to install the program on one main location and check the other locations trough the internet. So then we have one server and one monitor to check all the other servers, without installing the program on the other locations.



If we want to know the drivespace of the server on the other locations we get an error that he cant find the RPC.



We check the KnowledgeBase and found the articel RPC Server is unavailable

We followed the artikel by forwarding the port 139/445 and the other tips. But it still dont work



Now is this what we want possible with ServersCheck or are we doing something wrong.



What we just want is one big LCD Screen to watch or servers from or different locations trough the internet.



Thanks

Netbios traffic should be allowed as well as following ports:

137, 138, 139, 445



If you are monitoring a Windows XP machine with the Windows firewall on, then type following from the command prompt:

Netsh firewall set service RemoteAdmin



WMI is transported using DCOM, which uses RPC. If a firewall is preventing ICMP (Ping) then the server will not receive the command. Likewise, if a server is allowing ICMP, but not RPC, then the WMI command will still fail.

So you say that what we want is possible ? because we open now the extra port 137,138 but it still dont work.



We turned of the firewall but that doesnt help.



We can ping the servers and we have a fixed ip.



On the local network (one location) everything works fine.



Is it possible that because we have a trail version that that function is disabled ?



Thanks

No the trial version has nothing to do with it.



And DCOM is enabled on the remote machines for remote access?



Firewalls on both ends are open for

TCP Port 139 (Netbios Session Service)

TCP Port 445 (RPC)

UDP Port 137 (Netbios Name Service)

UDP Port 138 (Netbios Datagram Service)
