Hi wonderful people I hope one of you can help me. I need to access WMI on a remote Win XP desktops and I am getting permission errors when using the local admin account on the remote box. Any ideas? CODE: use DBI; my $machine = 'server'; my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:WMI:'.$machine,'admin','admin'); print "$dbh\n"; my $sth = $dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem'); $sth->execute; while (my @row = $sth->fetchrow) { my $printer = $row[0]; printf "ServicePackMajorVersion is %s\n", $printer->{ServicePackMajorVersion}, $machine; printf "ServicePackMinorVersion is %s\n", $printer->{ServicePackMinorVersion}, $machine; };
ERROR: C:\Scripting\toys>wmi.pl Win32::OLE(0.1707) error 0x80070005: "Access is denied" after character 0 in "winmgmts:\\server\root\cimV2" at C:/Perl/site/lib/DBD/ WMI.pm line 95 Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks Dave PS My system is... Host: WinXP SP2 Perl: 5.8.8 Build 822 DBD::WMI 0.06 DBI 1.607
