I use the Portable Scripts Center version without any problems for a
local computer. There may be more info about applying it for
enterprise search. Usually, I see a query to LDAP for multiple
workstation request.

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer &
"\root\cimv2")

Set colOperatingSystems = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem")

For Each objOperatingSystem in colOperatingSystems
Wscript.Echo objOperatingSystem.Caption & " " & _
objOperatingSystem.Version
Next
