Yes, but please ensure that you change the default listener to use HTTPS

I attended a session in Orlando on remote management, and the things you can
do with WinRM and WinRS were really awesome. You  may want to do a quick
search on those. There's a lot on MSDN and TechNet regarding both.

Useful to know about running remote commands with psexec. Will come in handy
for the odd occasion when I need to silently roll out patches on a case by
case basis, and I'm sure it will prove to be very useful for other scenarios
over time. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Another interesting use of pstools is "psexec \\computername cmd" which will
open you a remote command prompt and keep it open until you exit in the
normal fashion. Much easier than telnetting. Psexec is probably the most
useful tool in the suite.

Thanks James - I expect pstools will automate the telnet step below but
after posting found an alternative approach to find out what processes are
running in "near enough" realtime....

1. Start telnet on remote computer via computer management
2. Connect to telnet server from client
3. Run "tasklist /v" every 10 seconds or so to gauge what processes are
taking up system resource

Will give pstools a shot though - the above workaround is too overkill for
my liking...

Download pstools from MS to get it

Hello all,
I'm looking for a tool that will allow me to view (in realtime) processes
running on a remote XP SP2 desktop, i.e. to gauge CPU utilisation, etc.
Although "tasklist /s computername" tells me WHAT processes are currently
running (along with memory usage), I'd like a similar view, only in
realtime.
I'm aware I could simply remote control the PC in question and use Task
Manager to view running processes but the user has left their desktop locked
and due to internal security policy I'm not authorised to reset the user's
password without contacting the user first.

To put into context the above requirement, I'm simply trying to ascertain if
any applications are running within the user's logon session before I log
'em out to install some software.

Hope that all makes sense. Apologies if I haven't explained clearly.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

- JS

 

 

 

 

Pslist will do this, 

 

Pslist \\servername <file:///\\servername>  -s is all you need.
