Recommended Posts

Hi Friends,

I am little bit new on the Microsoft windows servers, i am trying to connect my windows server 2008 services.msc console remotely to my desktop (windows 8.1),

when i open the services.msc on my desktop and select "connect another to another computer" i am facing this error "windows was unable to open service control manager database error 5 access is denied".

its not prompting for password as well..

Can anyone please help me out what i should be configure on remote servers to allow me access on my desktop.

I am attaching the snapshot of the error which may be clear picture about the error..

Thank You in advance

Regards,

You can check First.

 

sc \\servername query 

 

If it gives you error (Access denied) means you need to set the required permission for user. Also You should allow WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) Port -135 in Firewall exception of Remote computer, for which you want to manage services.  

 

Also, you can do via cmd (run as admin) - sc \\servername start ServiceName (start or stop)

 

Hope it will help..

 

Thanks,
