I added the service account that the service runs as to the administrator group... in our case it was an AD account that had to be added to all of the windows machines we were monitoring... however, this isn't really acceptable to my organization from a security stand-point... so I will continue to look at why the user cannot access anything... when I try connecting directly to the WMI provider (not through zenoss), I receive an access denied error, even though I granted the user remote-access through the WMI provider... so it's not a zenoss issue, but a Windows security issue.

This is why adding the user to administrators solved the problem -- they have full permission to read/write WMI... Zakir" - Zakir... I feel dumb asking, but what user did you add to administrators? Did you need to add that user to all of the servers I'm assuming?
