I'm writing some interactive examples of using get-wmiobject. One of the
name spaces requires Pkt_Privacy authentication level to access remote
machines. Is there a way or plans to implement a property we can use to
select which type of authentication level. Not all WMI name space require
this level from what I'm finding. I looked the help for get-wmiobject and
get-credential, nothing out the box appears to have a property we can
define. TIA\\

Here is the error that shows up on the remote Longhorn server.

"Access to the root\WebAdministration namespace was denied because the
namespace is marked with RequiresEncryption but the script or application
attempted to connect to this namespace with an authentication level below
Pkt_Privacy. Change the authentication level to Pkt_Privacy and run the
script or application again"
