Forwarded Events and 2008 DCs

[Guest Don]

One of the steps involved in configuring a server to forward events is this:

 

"4. Add the computer account of the collector computer to the local

Administrators group on each of the source computers."

 

However this is not possible on the DCs.

 

I am not 100% sure if this is related but I am able to collect the events from

any 2008 servers but the DC where I get the following error message:

 

Error - Last retry time: 5/7/2009 5:00:51 PM.

Code (0x3AED):

 

 

 

 

Windows Event Forward Plugin failed to create subscription.

 

 

 

 

Next retry time: 5/7/2009 6:00:51 PM.

 

How can I solve this?

 

TIA,

 

Don
