Performance Counters Corrupted

[JJayUK]

We have an application that has a number of customer performance counters added.

When the application is installed (using Install Shield) the counters appear fine on each server where the application, is provided you run perfmon on the actual server.

When we try to add counters to perfmon using a different machine and connecting remotely, though, the counters are replaced by a set of numbers. Anyone seen this before and can help?

I've been looking at using Perfmon counters, but haven't actually implemented them yet.

I'm guessing that the installer calls a "create" method in your code to create the counters, which when your code runs, makes use of. Or does your program create them on first use?

The other idea, is when connecting remotely, the remote machine (the one doing the monitoring) needs the counters installed so that the local Perfmon will know how to display the values from the remote machine.
