Hello all, I am trying to make LAN remote connection utility for my IT department with powershell. With the help from OpenAI’s GPT-3.5, I managed to achieve a script that works only on remote machines that already enabled and configured winrm service. I tried to add one of the commands below to al…

Thank you, I found yesterday a working solution here: “ Enable PSRemoting: Local and Remote Techniques ” using WMI

[image] sasha: enable and configure winrm remotely in powershell that is pretty much a chicken/egg scenario. My vote is if you have GPO is to use that. More info here: [SNair] How to enable WinRM remotely? powershell asked by SNair on 11:07AM - …

little bit of a chicken/egg situation there. Invoke-Command leverages WinRM to execute remote commands, so if WinRM isn’t already running, you can’t use Invoke-Command to turn WinRM on. You might consider a non-Powershell solution to this: Create a Group Policy that configures WinRM on all your ta…

Thank you. I tried to use PSexec from PStools instead of Invoke-Command but still got errors.

[image] sasha: I tried to use PSexec from PStools instead So … this means you DONT have GPO available? Maybe you could show your code and errors so others can try to help?

Thank you. I dont have GPO related to winrm and cannot make one meanwhile. When the script will work properly it will be on Github for everybody. The error is - Connecting to remote server 10.xxx.xxx.xxx failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot complete the operation. Verify that the …

OK, this error “appears” to be related to your initial post. I was hoping for your code/errors for what you tried with “psexec” … but that may get flames for not being “powershell” related.

I definitely agree GPO is the way to go here. I wouldn’t accept “you can’t use the right tool for the job” However, if you find yourself in a position of needing to remotely enable without GPO, then psexec would be my next choice. Of course, that has it’s own requirements for the admin shares to be…

Finished working on base LAN remote connection utility script. Thank you all for helping me, any improvement will be appreciated. [image] GitHub - 5a5ha/lan_Remote_Desktop_Connection: Remote desktop connetion... Remote desktop connetion utility for local area network - 5a5ha/lan_Remote_D…

Congrats on finishing and getting it up on Github, that’s awesome. I don’t want to pick apart the entire script but from briefly looking at it two things stand out to me that I’ll provide feedback on: It uses an IP address for remote connection, which inherently won’t work in my environment or re…
