When I run a simple powershell command on a remote PC such as
Get-WmiObject Win32_Process -computer Pc1
Some Pcs reply "Access denied", while other reply fine, but I can't get the difference.
Which rights are involved?

aeroshock almost 15 yearsI'd be very surprised if this was a firewall issue. The fact that some machines acquiesce, and others have the gaul to respond with a "Access denied" means the traffic is getting through to the target, and a response is getting back.
