I don't know whether this is the right list....but we have configed our application to run on rpoduction environment and accoridng to KB Article ID 158438 - Enabling Non-Admin Users to remotely monitor with perfmon.. we have executed the required steps on production box...

Teh problem is we can access all system counters from remote machien but when we go thru .NET Counters or any custom counters those values don't get displayed. on remote machine...

Any special permission required for custom counters

Ok.. after breaking head for several hours here is the solution to problem

The Remote Registry Service needs to be restarted and i believe every .net application uses perf counter to instrument applications but if u r intending to view this counters remotely then ensure that along with necesary steps mentioned in below KB to allow non-admin users to view perf counter value remotely, the registry service needs to be restarted

It is a bug donno whether it has been fixed.. but atleast we faced this problem in win32k advanced server box.. the registry service which starts on machine startup caches all the perf counter at that time so any counters dynamically added or removed doesn't get reflected...

so now we have kept a scheduled task which restarts remote registry service once all our service has been started....
