Yes, this is repeatable. My other event log checks are local, I'm trying to expand to remote event log checks. I can successfully share a drive from the remote machine to my trusted IP so the file sharing ports appear to be working fine (which is what remote event viewer uses, I assume). I tried a second remote machine with the same results (same O/S combination). After about 310000 ms it fails with "Object variable or With block variable not set" - I gave it 600 seconds to see if it was just taking a long time, otherwise it was timing out.

Doing this will get you removed from the list. To unsubscribe send a message with UNSUBSCRIBE as subject to [email protected] If you use auto-responders (like out-of-the-office messages), then make sure that they are not send to the list nor to the individual members of the list that send a message. Doing this will get you removed from the list.
