Re: access denied when accessing IIS directory - C# Discussion Boards

28-Aug-08 1:37

Hello everyone,

When executing the following script in PowerShell (or equivalent C# code, I post PS code for simplification purpose), there is always access denied error. My purpose is to retrieve default web site information from remote computer named TestMachine. When I changed TestMachine to my local machine name, it is fine. Does anyone have any ideas? I am already belonging to the administrator group of the remote machine.

$siteName = (Get-Wmiobject -computer "TestMachine" -namespace "root/MicrosoftIISv2" -q "SELECT * FROM IIsWebServerSetting WHERE ServerComment = "Default Web Site").Name

regards,
George

Do you have rights on the remote PC?

Sure, I belongs to the same domain and I am the local administrator group member of the remote machine.

Then you would have to log in locally into that machine*, not via the domain (which happens by default). Else become a member of the domain administrators group, if possible.

* MACHINE_NAME\UserName, not DOMAIN\Username, it maybe limited, so it may not be possible.

Thanks leppie,

I could already use \\remotemachinename\C$ to access any files and directories on drive C, the same for drive D. So, you think I still do not have enough privilege?

My network configuration is, I belong to domain \csmasterstudent, both local machine where I execute the script on and the remote machine are both belongs to \csmasterstudent, and I am also a member of the Administrators group of the remote machine.

Any ideas?

regards,
George

Having local rights on a remote PC in a domain will not give you domain permissions.

Then you have to log into that PC directly (as previously shown) or get added to the Domain Administrators group.

Could you explain what do you mean "Having local rights on a remote PC in a domain will not give you domain permissions." please?

In my situation, the remote machine name is TestMachine, and my domain account name (I am using my domain acconut name to access the remote machine) belongs to the Administrator Group of the remote machine named TestMachine. And you think the privilege is still not enough?

George

I have a class called Graph.cs and in this class I set the values of some data from another class called Data.cs. I then try and read this data from another class called DrawGraph.cs, but I can't seem to read the data I set before this is because it is creatinga new instance of the Graph.cs class is there anyway around this.

Thanks Smile | :)

fix your code, it's obvioulsy broken. You're creating a new class instance, they don't create themselves.

How to write my string "<" in XML format

Hi,

I had the same question here with no positive answers and did a lot of reading finding the answer in Delegates and Event handling - do a search in the articles in Delegates and Event handling. It ends up a long and tedious process of three pages of coding to fix. I got fed up and just posted the variables as public static and then everything can see it allways. Very crude and non conforming to OOP, but quick !!

cheers

turn on double buffering. SetStyle is what you need to call.

Hi all

as is known to all,the char '<','>','&' is XML format.
but when i want to write a string that contain a '<' or '>' or '&'
in a XML,i could replace it such as :
<code>
string XMLstring = x[y].ToString();
XMLstring = XMLstring.Trim();
XMLstring = XMLstring.Replace("&", "&");
XMLstring = XMLstring.Replace(">", ">");
XMLstring = XMLstring.Replace("<", "<");
excelDoc.Write("<Cell ss:StyleID=\"StringLiteral\">" +
"<Data ss:Type=\"String\">");
excelDoc.Write(XMLstring);
</code>
but i failed :
<code>excelDoc.Write("<Cell ss:StyleID=\"BoldColumn\"><Data ss:Type=\"String\">");</code>

what should i do ?
Thanks!

That's not a good idea. Put the text in a CDATA[^] section.

If excelDoc is an XmlDocument it'll handle all that for you.

Hello everyone,

If I have enough priveleges, how could I get and access the services on a remote computer if I know the remote computer machine name? For example, I want to enumerate all the services on a remote computer and stop a service if its name matches some rules?

thanks in advance,
George

Process.GetProcesses(machineName)[^] gives a list of processes running on the specified machine. For authenticating remote machine, I think you should impersonate the user as Process.GetProcesses is not allowing to supply any user credentials.

What means "impersonate the user as Process.GetProcesses is not allowing to supply any user credentials."? I read a couple of times but do not know what you mean. Could you say in some other words please? Smile | :)

Process.GetProcesses is not allowing to supply user credentials for the remote machine. So you need to use some impersonation techniques to authenticate the remote machine. I haven't used but I think WindowsImpersonationContext[^] class can be used for this.

Thanks N a v a n e e t h!

I read the link but confused about what means "impersonation operation" or so-called impersonation technologies, does it a hacking technologies which someone acts (pretents) to be someone else? Could you clarify or provide some reference document about this technique please?

George
