remote sc OpenSCManager query failed 5 access denied

问题

I'm writing a script that periodically checks that certain services are running on remote workstations. I'm having a devil of a time getting an "SC \workst1 query" command working from one test machine to another. Both machines are running XP pro SP3. Neither is part of a domain. Both are in the same workgroup, and the administrator accounts have the same passwords.

I keep getting the "[SC] OpenSCManager FAILED 5: Access is denied" message, from either workstation to the other. I have tried using elevated privileges on both. Windows firewall software is turned off. There are no messages are showing up in the Event security logs. When (as administrator) I try going to "Computer Management" -> "connect to another computer" and access the remote services I get "Error 5 Access is denied".

I can set up a filesystem share between the two machines successfully, and "net use \workst1\IPC$ /user:Administrator" completes successfully, but the SC query still fails. I'm using IP addresses and not hostnames in these commands, but that doesn't help. I don't know what else to try. Thanks for the help.

Try to run the commans as a Administrator

start-> (type cmd in search box), right click on cmd, Run as a administrator -> execute your command

You must have administrative rights on the remote machine. Moreover you must access the drive before calling "sc". This can be achieved in command line using

net use \\remotemachine\admin$ <password> /user:<username>

admin$ is a hidden shared drive accessible to administrators that "sc" uses to control services.

I was having the same issue today trying to check if a service is enabled remotely. I could solve the issue modifying the User Account Control for remote restrictions in windows:

To disable UAC remote restrictions, follow these steps:

Click Start, click Run, type regedit, and then press ENTER.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System
If the LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy registry entry does not exist, follow these steps:
On the Edit menu, point to New, and then click DWORD Value. Type LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy, and then press ENTER. Right-click LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy, and then click Modify. In the Value data box, type 1, and then click OK.
Exit Registry Editor.
