Hi Everyone,

I’ve searched the net trying to fix this issue myself, but had no success. I’m running Windows 8 and when I try to connect to a remote domain controller from PowerShell ISE I receive an error that states

The WinRM client cannot process the request. Default authentication may be used with an IP address under the following conditions: the transport is HTTPS or the destination is in the TrustedHosts list, and explicit credentials are provided

Thanks for the help!

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

Try this, I believe on the Windows 8 machine. Enable and Use Remote Commands in Windows PowerShell | Microsoft Learn

I’ve had to do a lot of stuff like that to get tools to work on a Workgroup hyper-v server I have.

I seem to have figured it out, if I use the DC computer name I am able to connect, but if I use the IP I cannot.

Are you using the IP address instead of host names?

Thanks Chris. Using the IP address and adding it to the Trusted Hosts worked for me.
