Manage Windows Server 2003 from Windows 2000?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to use MMC from a Windows 2000 computer to
connect to a Windows 2003 Server and then look at the Event Log or browse
System Information?

I tried it with two computers in a workgroup, MMC asked for my remote
Administrator user and password, and then the tree view appears on screen,
but as soon as I click on anything it says "Access Denied".

I can use command line WMI against the same machine without any problems,
but MMC won't work...
