I don't think so, first of all I am passing my credentials to the domain in
question which is on our internal network and of which I am an enterprise
admin. Also this is no different from running a script on any other server
that I would want to attach to with alternate credentials. Here is a
description of the SWbemLocator- “You can use the methods of the SWbemLocator
object to obtain an SWbemServices object that represents a connection to a
namespace on a local or remote host computer. You can then use the methods of
the SWbemServices object to access WMI. This object can be created by the
VBScript CreateObject call.” What I am trying to do is create a script that
will patch all of my Domain Controllers on a particular domain.
