PowerShell 7.3 - guide with Endpoint Security Policies Blocking Invoke-Command Remoting
I'm refactoring my project and I'm trying to configure I'm learning this framework and After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out....... I've tried everything I can think of but Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy. I'm working with an scenario while trying to use `Invoke-Command` for remote execution on multiple machines in our network. I have set up PowerShell remoting correctly, and can successfully run commands remotely on some machines. However, on others, I receive the following behavior: ``` Invoke-Command : Connecting to remote server <MachineName> failed with the following behavior message: WinRM want to process the request. The following behavior occurred while using Kerberos authentication: want to find the computer <MachineName>. Verify that the computer exists on the network and that the name is spelled correctly. ``` I suspect it may be related to the endpoint security policies enforced on those machines, as they are in a different OU with stricter group policies. I've tried several things, including: 1. **Checking the WinRM listener**: I ran `winrm get winrm/config/listener` and confirmed that a listener is set up on the machines. 2. **Verifying DNS resolution**: I can ping the machine names without issues, and they resolve correctly with `Resolve-DnsName <MachineName>`. 3. **Testing Kerberos authentication**: I ensured that the service principal names (SPNs) are set correctly using `setspn -L <account>`. The output seems fine. 4. **Adjusting Group Policies**: I temporarily disabled some endpoint security settings on the machines, but the scenario continues. I also tried running a basic remote command that just checks the system date: ```powershell Invoke-Command -ComputerName <MachineName> -ScriptBlock { Get-Date } ``` This consistently fails with the same behavior. Is there anything I'm missing or any specific configurations that could be causing this scenario? Any help would be greatly appreciated! What's the best practice here? I'm working on a web app that needs to handle this. What are your experiences with this? I'm developing on macOS with Powershell. Thanks, I really appreciate it! Thanks, I really appreciate it! This issue appeared after updating to Powershell LTS. Any suggestions would be helpful.
