How to check registry key value on computer which is not in domain??
I think that I must use local admin credential for this but I dont know how
I tried this:
$user = "admin"
$password = "pass" | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force
$computer = "computer"
$domain=$computer
$username = $domain + "\" + $user
$Credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $username,$password
$key = '\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters'
$valuename = 'DiskSpaceThreshold'
$wmi = Get-Wmiobject -list "StdRegProv" -namespace root\default -Computername $computer -Credential $Credential
$value = $wmi.GetStringValue($HKEY_Local_Machine,$key,$valuename).svalue
$wmi
$value
But the result:
Get-Wmiobject : Could not get objects from namespace root\default. Serwer RPC jest niedostępny. (Wyjątek od HRESULT: 0x800706BA) At line:12 char:8

So I tried something else

Result for this script

comp3 \COMP3\ROOT\default:StdRegProv System.Management.ManagementBaseObject
Personally, as I am used to use powershell remoting to gather information from remote machines, I would proceed like this:
So in your case, something like (If you are retrieving a value named DiskSpaceThreshold inside of HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters)
$user = "admin"
$password = "pass" | ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText -Force
$computer = "computer"
$domain=$computer
$username = $domain + "\" + $user
$Credential = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $username,$password
$session = New-PSSession $computer -Credential $Credential
$r = Invoke-Command -Session $session -ScriptBlock { Get-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters -Name "DiskSpaceThreshold" }
Remove-PSSession $session
Write-Host $r.DiskSpaceThreshold
The effect of trying to run the script from P-L user post
New-PSSession : [computer] Connecting to remote server computer 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 HTT
PS 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.
