If you were Registered and logged in, you could reply and use other advanced thread options I am having exactly the same issue. I have 2 servers only, server1 is a DC
and server2 is a domain member. From server1 I open Computer Management, and
then try to change to manage server2. It opens, but when I try to open Event
Viewer I get the same Access Denied message. I cannot see any information on
the other machine, keep getting access denied.
But if I go to server2 console, open Computer Management and try to switch
to manage server1, it opens fine, I can see everything. So it is only broken
in one direction. Very odd.
I checked all the things you suggested: Logged in as domain admin, netdiag
is all success, groups are set up correctly, no one in Guest or anything.
Windows Firewall is not enabled on either server. RDP works just fine.
Any clues? Thanks in advance!
