| It only likes UNC (\\) names. I would like to use system monitor on a server wihtout using Terminal services on the server itself. I'm in Phoenix AZ and the server is in Washington DC. |

| \\[IP] does work in a web browser though, but not in performance monitor. Using in a explorer or browser window brings up a list of network shares. An internet IP does not work.Edited by - GreatInca on 03/12/2002 16:30:37 |
