Looking under a couple windows servers that I just successfully modeled, I go to inspect the Windows Services part and the Monitored column was totally greyed out.. Cannot click the check box on any service. What can I do

Take a look at this older article: http://community.zenoss.org/message/68369

It doesn't appear that Zenoss automatically graphs those services. Maybe in the new Microsoft ZenPack that came out with 4.2.5 it does by default

Give it a shot!

You can't click that box, you need to highlight the service and cclick the "gear" icon. Choose monitoring -> yes.

I got it.. Python and Microsoft now installed. The column is still grey, however I can click on the hyperlink for the service name and open the WINSERVICE properties page and enable Monitoring that way. Seems odd and almost like taking the back door but I guess it works.
