    Remotely administer DNS server on 2008 R2 Core from W7 RSAT

    Hi



    I want to administer DNS server installed on standalone 2008 R2 core
    server from DNS Manager (RSAT) in Win 7.

    I have disabled UAC on Win 7, Server and Client are in same workgroup,
    have same administrative account (for example: Valiant) and same
    password.

    When I run DNS manager in Win 7 and enter IP address of DNS server I get
    error: Access is denied.

    I can connect with Server Manager from Win 7 RSAT into Core R2 server.
    If I choose DNS from Role I've alse get same error: Access is denied.

    What am I doing wrong here with my simple wish to administer remotely
    DNS from GUI tool ?

    Hello NVVN,

    Did you enable remote administration on the server core machine:

    Hi As I posted, I can connect with Server Manager, so remote
    management is enabled on core machine.


    If I disable firewall (all 3 mode) on core machine I can then connect
    with DNS Manager console but can not connect anymore with Server Manager
