Sometimes Windows doesn't like talking over the network using RPC, WMI o= r Windows File Sharing. This happens for a variety of reasons - none of them relate to Open-AudIT.
It may even be that the Windows firewall (or another third party firewal= l) is blocking all connections. Whatever the cause, Open-AudIT cannot remot= ely talk to (or can only partially talk to) the target Windows devices.
For these difficult PCs I recommend setting up a scheduled task to run a= nd submit the audit result to the server. This is easy to do.
First you will need a copy of the audit script. The simplest way to obta= in it is to logon to Open-AudIT from a machine that is not the Open-AudIT S= erver, then go to menu =E2=86=92 Discover =E2=86=92 Audit Scripts =E2=86=92= List Audit Scripts. Click the Download button for the Windows audit script= .
The reason to not logon to Open-AudIT from localhost is so the data subm= ission URL in the audit script is populated correctly.
Save the audit script to c:\windows on the target machine(s).
Then create a scheduled task (on whatever schedule you like) to execute = the task using cscript c:\windows\audit_windows.vbs.
And that's all there is to it.
Once the task has run (feel free to "run now"), you should see data for = that machine in Open-AudIT.
