This procedure verifies that the username/password combination are correct, and that there is no firewall blocking the connection. Since this is done from the Zenoss server, this test is a better approximation of how successful Zenoss will be in connecting to the Windows device.

As the zenoss user on the Zenoss server:

wmic -U 'user' //device 'select * from Win32_computerSystem'

The wmic command will then prompt you for the password.
