Our SolarWinds products are running fine when accessed from our XP Pro workstations. However, as we near rollout of Windows 7, I keep getting prompted for Administrator credentials, when I have Orion (NPM, etc) up in a window. And while I can give it my Admin cred, it keeps asking ... every few minutes.
The basic image is locked down for most users, and that is what I'm testing. So I get prompted for Admin cred when I add drivers, etc. Most of this is normal and expected. But I don't know what Orion wants or needs.
The message is not very specific. Title: User Account Control; Msg: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?; Program name: Internet Explorer Add-on Installer; Verified publisher: Microsoft Windows; File origin: Hard drive on this computer
And then it wants Admin User-ID and PW. I can get details on the cert, but it doesn't help me.
There is really no indication that this is an Orion/NPM issue, other than it comes from that window, and if closed I don't get prompted. I can signon with Admin cred, adjust security settings down, and avoid the prompts, but that goes against the idea of securing workstations at the desired level.
I hope someone has a simple answer. Don't assume that I have great Windows skills. :-)
