COMMAND WMI FAILED

[senjor]

I was trying to configure an alarm that receives data from a WMI command.
The module is not initialized and the error log I see this:

NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT - NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT - NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT - NT_STATUS_IO_TIMEOUT
NTSTATUS: NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT - NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT

Helo senjor,

It is not getting data from the wmi module. Try this from the server command line with wmic command to see if it works and report us.

Cheers.

After running on the server with any queries wmic :

ERROR : dcom_create_object
ERROR : Login to remote object
NT_STATUS: NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT -  NT_STATUS_NET_WRITE_FAULT

What Windows version are you running?

[senjor]

XP Professional Service Pack2

Are you running Windows firewall? It must be able to allow remote management or disable firewall service.

Also, if user isn't admin user, then you will have to give serve DCOM execution permissions to this user, as it is explained here:

I'm frustrated. There is no firewall. I am the administrator of the agent.
The Windows Management Instrumentation service is running.

Despite all this, I keep getting this error  :(

It seems to be a problem with Windows authentication.

I guess you have wmi server enabled in pandora_server.conf

Code:

# wmiserver : 1 or 0. Set to 1 to activate WMI server with this setup
 # DISABLED BY DEFAULT
  wmiserver 1

Then have you check DCOM permissions?

Regards.
