wmi error?

[gcue]

im not creating an object just connecting with objget and i already tried to capture the error there as i mentioned above. but the hang happens as im doing the objget. when i check the status of the service its running but its in a weird state because i cant restart it.

thanks though

Objget then

[gcue]

as i mentioned earlier, objget hangs - but checking the service with sc /query - shows running

[gcue]

this is how i was connecting before

$objWMIService = "winmgmts:" & $strComputer & "rootcimv2"

i also tried these other ways - still hanging

$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate,authenticationLevel=pktPrivacy}!" & $strComputer & "rootcimv2")
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate,(Security)}!" & $strComputer & "rootcimv2")
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:" & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate,authenticationLevel=pktPrivacy,authority=ntlmdomain:cguser.capgroup.com}!" & $stComputer & "rootcimv2")

Use the Scriptomatic from the Microsoft Scripting Guys and set it's wmi source as the host you're having trouble with.

Again tho, sounds like there's a deeper problem. You might want to consider RDP'ng to the computer and checking things out. If the scriptomatic can't map that namespace, there's something wrong and you'll have to start troubleshooting from the host in question.
