I am trying to access EC2 machines remotely to get some info using C#. I wrote code as below:-
ConnectionOptions options = new ConnectionOptions
{
Username = serverspace.ServerIP + @"\xxxxxx",
Password = "xxxxxxx",
Impersonation = ImpersonationLevel.Impersonate,
EnablePrivileges = true
};
ManagementScope scope = new ManagementScope(String.Format(@"\\{0}\ROOT\CIMV2", serverspace.ServerIP), options);
scope.Connect();
But an RPC exception is thrown as below:- The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA) at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo) at System.Management.ManagementScope.InitializeGuts(Object o) at System.Management.ManagementScope.Initialize()
1- Is the problem in the code? 2- Do I need to adjust anything in all machines firewall?
RPC firewall ports are documented here:
Service overview and network port requirements for Windows
-Remote Procedure Call (RPC):
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/832017#method39
System service name: RpcSs
Application protocol Protocol Ports
RPC TCP 135
RPC over HTTPS TCP 593
NetBIOS Datagram Service UDP 138
NetBIOS Name Resolution UDP 137
NetBIOS Session Service TCP 139
SMB TCP 445
Additionally, you need the "high ports" range 49152 through 65535.
