SYMPTOMS
When you try to open a 3270 session by using either the Host Integration Server 2000 (HIS 2000) Administrator Client or the HIS 2000 End User Client on a localized Windows 2000 system, you may receive the following error message:
CAUSE
The HIS 2000 Setup program does not grant the Remote Enable permission to the Everyone group for the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) Root\MicrosoftHIS namespace when you install Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000 on a localized Windows 2000 system.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Host Integration Server 2000. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
328152 How to Obtain the Latest Host Integration Server 2000 Service Pack
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, do either of the following:
- From the HIS 2000 root directory, run the following command: Wmiace /namespace:root\microsofthis /user:<Everyone Group> /mask:0x20
where <Everyone Group> is the equivalent group name of the installed language.
For example, if the language is German, the command resembles the following:
Wmiace /namespace:root\microsofthis /user:Jeder /mask:0x20
- Grant permission manually. To do this, follow these steps:
- Right-click My Computer and click Manage.
- In Services and Applications, right-click WMI Control and click Properties.
- Click the Security tab, then locate and select MicrosoftHIS Namespace.
- Click Security and grant Remote Enable permissions to the Everyone group.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Host Integration Server 2000 Service Pack 1.
MORE INFORMATION
The HIS 2000 setup program uses a separate command to grant the Remote Enable permissions. The syntax is the following:
Wmiace /namespace:root\microsofthis /user:Everyone /mask:0x20
Because the Everyone group is named differently on localized versions of Windows 2000, this command fails to grant the required permissions.
