The wmi collector doesn't work any more

[cakrit]

I installed last night's build. Just as with the windows server, the wmi collector no longer produces charts by default. Pinging our devs, FYI for now @dfpr . This broke two days ago.

Wait, on my PC I see something different, connection refused

No, it's the timeout. The other one won't work.

So we're getting a timeout that breaks the collector. This is a bug for the collector, not the installer.
