PoSh Remote/Alternate Credentials

Just need to bounce this off you guys/gals ::
I have a script that runs several checks, using the .Net method, on some
registry values of remote systems. I have 3 domains, and domain admins in
one domain do NOT have rights to systems in other domains. I would like the
script to use the get-credentail cmdlet to prompt for other credentials, the
only problem is that when it does, the script doesn't run all the pieces
correctly (access denied..)

If i log into a system on the other domain (and yes trusts, etc. are all
fine) and run the script as admin it works great.

Thanks,

Get-Credentials doesn't work like you expect. It does NOT change the current
context. It gives you a System.Management.Automation.PSCredential object you
can pass Get-WMIObject as well as other .NET Classes that implement
System.Net.NetworkCredential
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...redential.aspx).

In your case I assume your using the
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...ey(VS.90).aspx. I
am not sure if you can pass creds to that.
