Offer Remote Assistance

I have enabled Offer Remote Assistance through GP and have been using it
successfully with XP machines for quite some time. I have just started using
a Vista machine and attempted to offer remote assistance to an XP client and
received an error message:

Your offer to help could not be sent. Check the following:
Do you have the correct permissions...
Is the remote computer turned on...
Is there a network problem...

I immediately re-tried to offer remote assistance to the sasme XP client
from an XP machine and it worked fine.

Do I need to modify a setting on the Vista PC to get Offer to work?

You need Full admin rights.

You need Full admin rights. Starting the app you use to access the remote
assistance by rightclicking it, will show an option to 'run as
administrator'

Hi, Richard,

Did you ever get this issue resolved?  I am wrapping up a Vista roll
out for my company and have run into this exact same issue.

Thanks,
Nicole
