Have you tried executing from the command line to see if the command
is executing properly? Whilst it shouldn't be a huge issue, have you
tried dropping the version specific counter?

  \\ASP.NET Applications\\Sessions Active

So the service isn't starting that you're trying to use to get
counters from? nsclient++ seems to work okay, not tested on 2008 yet,
pretty soon though.

I don't have that counter monitored, but I do have RAS monitored with
nsclient++.
