JSI Tip 2590. How do I configure administrative alerts in Windows 2000?

The Windows 2000 Server products contains a new Server Manager, Srvmgr.exe, which can be used to add recipients to and remove recipients from the local Windows 2000 Alerter service.

You can also use Regedt32 to navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Alerter\Parameters

Double-click the AlertNames value name, a REG_MULTI_SZ data type, and add the computers and users you wish to receive administrative alerts, one per line.

Both the Alerter and Messenger service must be started.
