    Dear Members,

    I want to install MR in my laptop as a test environment,am wondering if its possible to install it in a standalone machine,i mean not in any domain. I have only one windows user account i,e admin.

    I would really appreciate your contribution.

    Regards,

    Charles

    NYBruce, thanks for your contribution.Yeah i got it and i eventually installed,DCPROMO command helped.

    Now am facing different problems, i can't log in to MR, i get an error,

    connection failed .user does not have appropriate permissions to connect to the server.contact your administrator

    can't connect to the management reporter server.

    NB: i think this new requirement by MS is damn irritating.

    hanks,

    Hi I also run DCPROMO in my VM, and then i setup domain user for admin group and SQL. use the domain user to login, then you would use MR.

    Siele,

     This means that the user you typed in to be the MR Administrator is not the user you are connecting as. Management Reporter will not let users access the system unless they are added as a valid user. Verify you are logged into your domain and not the local box. I've seen some confusion and you can use the whoami command to see if you are logged in as machine\administrator or domain\administrator.

    Please vote on any enhancements that you would like to see in the product:
