The problem here appears to be one of interrogating the correct node with the correct context.
I was hopeful that I could interrogate a domain controller using the /node: context but that doesn't appear to function as expected either. I am able to interrogate any system where a user has logged in using the following context: wmid /node:"domain" netlogin where (Name like "%username") GET PasswordExpires The requirement appears to be that the user must have logged into the system.
