SYMPTOMS

performance object are not available through a Terminal Server Client session.

CAUSE
=====

The user who is logged in through the Terminal Services Client is not a member
of the Administrator user group on the computer that is hosting Terminal
Services. Only users who are members of the Administrator group can view some
performance objects, such as "Internet Information Services Global".

RESOLUTION

If it is appropriate for that user to have all Administrator privileges on the
computer hosting Terminal Services, add that user to the Administrator group.
