Remotely accessing WMI information without using a Local Administr

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas how to do this please?

We are trying to get access to WMI information on a Windows Server 2003 and
Windows Server 2003 SP1 box.

I have setup a domain user account and added this account to the security
permissions for WMI. I have also added this account to the DCOM Security
Settings for "Launch and Activation permissions" with full remote control on
both.

I am still receiving a error when I'm running a script to poll data.
"80041003 - Access Denied"

There is no problem with the script as I have successfully tested when the
domain user is added to the local administrator group.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Chris
