    Hi,

    I'm trying to enable psremoting on my windows 7 workgroup at home, but constantly get authentication errors and I can't seem to find why.  Can anyone give me the necessary steps to enable it please?  I've modified the remote security settings to allow my local machine 'in', but I'm still getting authentication probs and am stuck for ideas.

    Thanks in advance.

    Bob

    Here is the error and remote (home) config.

    LOCAL 

    PS C:\Users\Bob> $c = Get-Credential machine\user
    PS C:\Users\Bob> Enter-PSSession machine -Credential $c
    Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM client cannot process
     the request. If the authentication scheme is different from Kerberos, or if the client computer is not joined to a dom
    ain, then HTTPS transport must be used or the destination machine must be added to the TrustedHosts configuration setti
    ng. Use winrm.cmd to configure TrustedHosts. Note that computers in the TrustedHosts list might not be authenticated. Y
    ou can get more information about that by running the following command: winrm help config. For more information, see t
    he about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.

    Hello,

    could you try these steps on your Remoteclient

    1) winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener

    2) Set-WsManQuickConfig

    and again 3) winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener

    are there differences between the output of 1) and 3)?


    perhaps 4) enable-psremoting

    Did you review:
    PS> help about_Remote_Troubleshooting

    Specifically, this section:
    "HOW TO CONNECT REMOTELY FROM A WORKGROUP-BASED COMPUTER"

    I never said you were an idiot, but I try to never assume anything that wasn't specified.

    You wouldn't believe who I had to remind a year or so ago about reading that section...
