Half of my domain is auditing the rest are being skipped after it doesn't get a response back from WMI. As in it never gets a computer name so it goes on to the next computer. Why would it do that? The computer are all setup the same.

Any ideas?

Just as an idea until they respond to you... have you tried manually connecting to the machines with compmgmt.msc and tried to view the WMI with the same credentials that OA is using? Could a firewall be blocking the calls?

Also look through the FAQs, particularly...

Seems most likely firewall related or security related.
