How to deploy wmi namespace security in domain, multlple servers?
Hi, I have a process that is doing remote monitoring via wmi. I am fully aware of the setting up the security and allowing dcom remotely. My question is: is there any way to set WMI Namespace security across a domain or enterprise? I do not want to have to use an domain administrator user account for this monitoring, goes against the least privilege principle. The only official microsoft way I can find is via wmimgmt.msc (see link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/295292). It seems that this is very unfriendly to a large organization.
