Valid on Windows Server 2008

To use SAM on a Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 endpoint, perform additional configuration steps on the endpoint.

Follow these steps:

Notes:

• Steps 1 through 13 are not required when you add an endpoint on Windows in the Enterprise Management environment.
• Steps 2 through 6 are required only when the Enterprise Management machine is LINUX.

1. Open the Windows registry.
2. Navigate to the following registry keys and do steps 3-6 for each key:

   HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{76A64158-CB41-11D1-8B02-00600806D9B6}
   

   HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{233664b0-0367-11cf-abc4-02608c9e7553}
   

   Note: You can use the Find option in the Edit menu to search for these registry keys.

3. Right-click each key and select Permissions.

   The Permissions dialog appears.

4. Click Advanced.

   The Advanced Security Settings dialog appears.

5. Click the Owner tab, click Administrators in the Change Owner to: field, click Apply, and click OK.

   The Advanced Security Settings dialog closes.

6. Select Administrators in the Group or User Names window of the Permissions dialog, and select the Full Control checkbox in the Allow column of the Permissions for Administrators window.
7. Click OK.
8. Click Start, Administrative Tools, Local Security Policy.

   The Local Security Policy management console opens.

    • Network Security: minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including secure RPC) clients
    • Network Security: minimum session security for NTLM SSP based (including secure RPC) clients
11. Right-click each policy and select Properties.
