SMS: Remote Control Prompts for User's Credentials Even with Domain Administrator Privilege
This article was previously published under Q259740
If you try to remotely control a Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) Windows NT client, the following dialog box may appear:
Credentials Required
The currently logged-in user does not have rights to access the client machine. You must provide the username, domain, and password of an account in the client's remote control operators group.
The Permitted Viewer list is correct and has been verified against another working SMS client computer.
This behavior occurs because the Microsoft Windows NT LAN Manager (LM) Security Support Provider Service is not enabled.
To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
- Using a remote connection, connect to the client computer through Server Manager.
- Start the Windows NT LM Security Support Provider Service, and then set the service to automatic.
- Stop, and then restart the SMS Remote Control Agent service.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2003
- Microsoft Systems Management Server 2.0 Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
