Hi all,

I have a simple WMI query that runs fine locally, but querying a remote system gives an access denied error. When I add the local user to the remote system as member of the administrator group, the query works as expected, but I don't want to have that user as a member of that group.

I already tried the following things, unfortunately not successful so far:

  • I enabled RemoteAdmin for the firewall (netsh firewall set service RemoteAdmin enable)
  • I added the user with all possible access rights to the WMI Security settings (for the root name space, and I also checked that the settings are correctly propagated to the namespace I'm querying, root/cimv2) via wmimgmt.msc
  • I enabled remote access for the user in DCOM COM security

I still get the same error every time I run my query, is there anything else that I may have missed?

Thanks in advance &

Best regads
