so, we're making several security updates at my job and utilizing the remote capabilities of XP's computer management function. my coworker has been taking care of this while i research some things and got the following error message.



Mind you, this is an XP Pro box, latest patches, no firewall service on and has an NTFS file system. plus, managing it anyway allowed my coworker to still make all of the needed changes and have them stick. so much for not being able to manage it!

silly MS and your goofy error messages.

this has been xposted to my personal journal as well.

Edit: sorry about that linking glitch. I don't often link pics on LJ and the way I tried before was how I had to for other forums. Thank you to bassgirl for the correction.

You need to link to http://pics.livejournal.com/cirobi/pic/0001fqr6/s640x480, not to the page that the picture is on.

If the response to pressing "Yes" on that dialog is anything other than "I just told you it cannot be managed. Are you fucking blind?", then Microsoft needs to put down the crack pipe.
