Executing a command on a remote windows system using WMI

Usually we use psexec tool from sysinternals to execute any program on a remote system. There is another way to execute a command on a remote windows system via WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). This function would be beneficial to QTP automators because its a vbscript function and can be used in their function libraries (after some modifications). All you have to do is call this function with the target system name, username, password and the command to execute. The output would be the process if of the process that was initated on the target system. Have fun…
