What network security rights must I have to run autoMap?
To obtain SNMP information you need to use the correct Read Community string (e.g., Public). To obtain WMI information you must run autoMap from a user account with Domain Administrator rights. This is particularly relevant with using autoMap with the autoAsset add on. If you do not have the correct permission, it means that the workstation you are running autoMap from is not a domain administrator or the workstation you are trying to discover is not logged on to the same domain. Either way windows has not given permission for you to access the WMI RPC services on the remote workstation. Will show devices with the wrong permission in the Discovery Summary Report associated with the autoAsset add on.
