Need help figuring our WMI error message

[anthonymel]

I have been getting this error message ever since I installed SMS 2003 on one of my servers. Does anyone have an idea on what to do here. Could this be related to a computer account being placed in the wrong security settings?

"A provider, PolicyAgentInstanceProvider, has been registered in the WMI namespace, root\CCM\Policy\Machine, to use the LocalSystem account. This account is privileged and the provider may cause a security violation if it does not correctly impersonate user requests."

Thanks alot,

Anthony

Open the Computer Management, under Services, check WMI Control Properties and make sure that under the Security tab\Root you have a SMS folder that your SMS Admins have access to. Also, check at this document:
