Tom86We're gonna have to make some noise about it. I filed a bug on the UserVoice; kindly https://windowsserver.uservoice.com/forums/295071-management-tools/suggestions/39891064--bug-actually-implement-windows-10-node-managemen and comment on it if you can. Also retweet and/or add to the thread on this https://twitter.com/jdrch/status/1236729138146353152 to the WAC Twitter.

 

It's important that we get this going; Linux, FreeBSD, and Illumos have easy web console remote management already via Cockpit, Webin, and Napp-it, respectively. Windows is way behind in this regard and needs to catch up. The status quo is neither the wave nor sustainable.

      Prasidh_Arora  Thanks! The Twitter thread I linked to also has some troubleshooting advice from Rafael Rivera as well as some other measures I've tried.
