Re: Access denied to event viewer?

If I read your post correctly you can access security log remotely while
logged on as the built in administrator account for the domain but not as a
domain user that is a member of the domain admins group. Double check that
the domain admins group is a member of the administrators group in ADUC,
make sure that your user account is not a member of guests group, and verify
that administrators have the user right to manage auditing and security log
in Domain Controller Security Policy under local policies/user rights. ---
