remote shell.application objects ?

[snaileater]

All the tries i made opening a remote shell object with the following line :

$oShell = ObjCreate("shell.application","MAX-D04-34")

failed ...

Is there any obvious reason explaining this behaviour ?

Thanks.

Hello snaileater,

You can only open DCOM (Distributed COM) objects on remote computers. Shell.Application is NOT a DCOM object.

You can use the 'Component Services' MMC (=dcomcnfg.exe) to see a list of installed DCOM objects on your computer.
