Remote Windows Service monitoring

[greyone]

I was wondering if there is any way i can monitor a remote windows services.
I'm currently using the followin and when i try to enter an IP address or a remopte machine name i get a permission error. Please help. Here is what i'm using:

System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController.GetServices("remote machine name")

gives me a permission error.

You can use a SNMP utility. I don't know if there are any free ones for the Windows platform (google?), but there are commercial ones available (we use NetIQ).
