Check_nt not reporting memory for 1 server

[Phil Costelloe]

I have sometimes seen the Windows performance subsystem that nsclient
queries stop giving out values for some of the counters while others
still work OK. The easiest way to check that is to go into
Administrative Tools -> Performance on the Windows server, click the +
above the graph, select System as the Performance Object and System Up
Time as the Counter, click Add then Close. If you select System Up Time
in the list of counters below the graph, do the counter statistics show
numbers (increasing by one every second) or big fat zeroes?
