Setting WMI permissions remotely on windows server 2003

Question

Hello. I know this question is related to 'server setting'

but I can't receive any answer (http://serverfault.com/questions/141754/setting-wmi-permissions-remotely-on-windows-server-2003)

this question is close to server setting, but is also very close to programming. if not close please

here's the question.

I made a simple program checking the service on the remote server is started or not. by using this(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dwd0y33x(v=VS.90).aspx)

but the permission should be set. and I can't find any document via the internet. except one document.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa393266(VS.85).aspx

but the engineer say that 'tell me exactly what I do. there are many DCOM

are they any nice document to show him?

thanks in advance
