I've recently created a little script that allows me to get the disk size and free space of 2 servers at each school site when I provide the script with the schools 4 digit site code.
First it pulls the information on the sites from a .csv file, and then uses that information to put together a string for the DC FQDN hostname, and the .10 server.
Then it requests the password for my elevated access account used to get the information on the disks.
I am having an issue where when the script creates the script block and then uses Invoke-Command and sends the script block to the servers, and provides back the PowerShell object with the information.
The error provided is as per below:
[{ServerName}] Connecting to remote server {ServerName} failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot process the request. The following error with errorcode 0x80090311 occurred while using Kerberos authentication: There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request. Possible causes are: -The user name or password specified are invalid. -Kerberos is used when no authentication method and no user name are specified. -Kerberos accepts domain user names, but not local user names. -The Service Principal Name (SPN) for the remote computer name and port does not exist. -The client and remote computers are in different domains and there is no trust between the two domains. After checking for the above issues, try the following: -Check the Event Viewer for events related to authentication. -Change the authentication method; add the destination computer to the WinRM TrustedHosts configuration setting or use HTTPS transport. Note that computers in the TrustedHosts list might not be authenticated. -For more information about WinRM configuration, run the following command: winrm help config. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic. + CategoryInfo : OpenError: ({ServerName}:String) [], PSRemotingTransportException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : AuthenticationFailed,PSSessionStateBroken
Things I've tried:
Resetting my password
Altering the Authentication type to Basic
Device is running Windows 10 1607 v14393.1944, PowerShell v5.1.
There is a one-way trust between the domain I am in and the domains the DC1 and MS10 (.10) are in, the domains trust us, but we don't trust the domains.
The account I use is local admin on the device via a nested AD Group, across all domains.
I'm not very understanding of Kerberos, so any help would be amazing.
The script is below: Note: I've had to remove some parts, so I've filled the area with what would be there (i.e. {String} where there would just be standard text, and {FQDNServerName} where there would be a FQDN server name written as text, or {Region} where I would have had the region written as text}).

EDIT: The uninstall of the software updates did not fix the issue, so unless it's something to do with those 2 updates that I can't uninstall it doesn't appear to be Software Updates.
It turns out that the domains I am trying to reach were not in my TrustedHosts config for WinRM.
By using the following command, I was able to add the domains (of which I have numerous) to the TrustedHosts using the '*' wildcard.
NOTE: I have replaced part of the domain with {String} where it would normally have part of the domain name for confidentiality reasons.
winrm set winrm/config/client @{TrustedHosts="<local>,*.{string}.edu.au"}
