WinRM cannot process the request. Error 0x80090311

Question

I have to 2 systems (SR01 & SR02) with local administrators account. Both the systems are in the same domain. The local admin accounts are same with different password. These machines are VM's.

When I run a enter-pssession from SR01 to SR02 it throws the below error.

Error: Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server SR02.Domain.com failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot process the request. The following error with errorcode 0x80090311 occurred while using Kerberos authentication: There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request. Possible causes are: -The user name or password specified are invalid. -Kerberos is used when no authentication method and no user name are specified. -Kerberos accepts domain user names, but not local user names. -The Service Principal Name (SPN) for the remote computer name and port does not exist. -The client and remote computers are in different domains and there is no trust between the two domains. After checking for the above issues, try the following: -Check the Event Viewer for events related to authentication. -Change the authentication method; add the destination computer to the WinRM TrustedHosts configuration setting or use HTTPS transport. Note that computers in the TrustedHosts list might not be authenticated. -For more information about WinRM configuration, run the following command: winrm help config. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.

Script Used:

$cred=Get-Credential

Enter-PSSession -ComputerName "SR02" -Credential $cred

Solution

I was able to get past this error by adding the remote computer to my computer's WinRM TrustedHosts

winrm s winrm/config/client '@{TrustedHosts="remoteComputerName"}'
