Retrieve information of a remote machine in vbscript

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



At first a beg your pardon for my poor English...And also I'm new in
vbscripting...

My Question: It's possible to retrieve information like Operating System
characteristics, Video, Processor, Disk space (free and total) for example of
a remote machine into a domain and put this information in Access tables with
Access vb script? I would like to be able to do a machine inventory by net
putting the information in access 2007 to work it.

I have tried it in WSH and in Access but I always have system messages like
"User without permissions..." or "RPC server is not in use...". I use a user
with Domain Administrator permissions.

I have catched the examples in the Script Center and in Hey, Scripting Guy!
sites...

Someone can give me ideas? Someone have examples in access?

Thank you all in advance.
