SYMPTOMS
You use the Remote.exe command line tool to try to start a remote control session with an IPX client, and you receive the following error message:

Security rights to run Remote Tools on this client have been denied.



CAUSE
You have omitted the extraneous zeroes that appear as the first part of the client’s IPX network address.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, you must supply all of the leading zeroes for the client's IPX network address. You should take note of the network address, which will be similar to "00000000:0050BAD49253."

Type the following command but replace the network address with that of your client computer.

remote.exe 1 00000000:0050BAD49253



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Systems Management Server version 2.0.
