NSclient & windows XP

[Trace McQuaig]

Thought of that... Just tested it on a win xp corporate and the counters are
there. However a winxp pro retail does not have the counters. I will have to
check with microsoft support information to find out why...

Personally, i do the following :

  --> Start
  --> Parameters
  --> Configuration Pannel
  --> Administrative tools
  --> Performances
  --> Right click on the right panel
  --> Add counters
  --> Add the wanted counter, then close the window
  --> Right click on the counter on the bottom of the right panel then
  "Properties"
  Then, you can find the full path of your counter.

Hope this helps,

Chris
