KB: Configuring the Remote Registry
WebWatchBot 5.0 introduces new system monitoring types which require
access to the registry. If monitoring a remote computer (any computer that
WebWatchBot is not running on), remote registry access is required for the
following Watch Types:
- Performance Counters
- Process - Uses performance counters for remote computers
- Service - Uses performance counters for remote computers
On the remote computer, ensure the Remote Registry Service is enabled.
- Open the Services control panel applet:
- Ensure the Remote Registry service is set to start automatically and
that it is started:
Additionally, on the remote computer, registry access may be restricted - by default
Administrator accounts have full access to the registry. If organizational policy dictates
that access must be elimiated or restricted, you will need to grant access to the
registry by the user account that WebWatchBot is running under.
