title: Restrict windows server 2008 R2 remote mmc
body: <p>I am looking for a way how to disable remote access to management console of single Windows Server 2008 R2 with least administrative effort.</p>
  
  <p>Server is in domain and there is big amount of other computers and users in domain, hence looking for some local option rather than changing some settings on domain level.</p>
  
  <p>I can disable usage of remote Server Management on server A that works as I would like - I am unable to access its Server Management from server B.
  However if I will open mmc on server B and add e.g. 'services' or 'computer management' snap-in, I am able to remotely access the server A this way</p>
  
  <p>Need to avoid users to restrict from using mmc and particular snap-ins and preferably trying to find a way without using windows firewall and blocking this type of communication.
  I somehow deep inside do believe, that there could be some registry key or local policy setting that will simply disable remote access of mmc kind.</p>
  
  <p>Obviously have to avoid any further 3rd party tools...</p>
  
  <p>Anyone know how to achieve this? Or at least some hint would be appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thank you</p>
