To allow a non administrator user to query WMI some changes must be done to Access permissions and Launch and Activation permissions in DCOM configuration.
We know it can be done using dcomcnfg.exe but we need to monitor a large network and we would like to configure all system settings at once. Does anybody know if there is a way to perform this settings from the domain controler? If there is not, which is the best way to automatically change this values? Setting Windows registry? Is there any API that permits to perform a safe change of this values?
You can reset the DCOM access permissions by deleting the following registry key:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Ole\DefaultAccessPermission
So you might have a nosy round in there.
However there's a lot more than just DCOM that you'll have to verify if you want non-admins to be able to access WMI.
If you send me an email I can get you a PDF that describes everything you'll need to look at.
