Connecting to Windows server over Winrm with https from Linux System

Hi Team

We have a scenario, where we need to connect to Windows server from a Linux Server ( Jenkins host is linux )
We want the connection to happen over https with WinRM

For which we have following in place:
1. WinRM is configured with http (5985), https (5986) listeners.
2. Https listener is configured with SSL with thumbprint of SSL certificate whose CN is domain name, listener configuration successful.
3. WinRM Service is running.

Connection from Linux server does not work when in my command I specify to use SSL transport for WinRM, its failing over SSL certificate issue.

Currently, I haven't performed any step to add any pem file for target Windows server SSL certificate on client ( Linux server )
Any suggestions/inputs/pointers on following will help.
1. If Linux to Windows connectivity with WinRM over https is possible? The command I am using in that if I ask to disable validation of ssl certs it works over https, but I want to achieve it with SSL certs validation enabled.
2. Which certificate or key should be added on to linux host, how to generate it?

Any response is really appreciated.

Thank you!

WinRM connexion

Hello,

Being an IT guy, I need to install software on multiple computers. And for some reasons, we decided to install them remotely by using WinRM.

So on one hand, I have my Windows 10 who is a client of our domain (let's call it
myDomain). And in the other hand, I have like 50 computers who are in
workgroup.

To enable WinRM in both computers, I type the following command: winrm quickconfig

And I answered yes to all the questions that I was asked.

Problem:

Then from my Windows 10, I used the following command to login to one the 50 computers: Enter-Pssesion -Computername
FORMATION

And I get an error.

Question:

1) With WinRM, is it possible to connect from Windows 10 client to an another
Windows 10 client ? or it should be Server to
Client?

2) is it possible to connect Windows Client member of a domain to
Windows client WORKGROUP ?

Thanks you in advance,

Poudandane. O

 

Unable to configure WinRM on domain user

Hi everyone,

I'm unable to configure WinRM on a domain computer. I have a simple domain with

1) Windows server 2012

2) A client running Windows 7

If I try to run WinRM on the local Administrator, everything works fine, but if I switch to a domain user, than problems occured.

For example, if i run winrm quickconfig in powershell as the domain Administrator, then I get:

WinRM already is set up to receive requests on this machine.

WSManFault

Message = WinRM cannot process the request. The following error occured while using Negotiate authentication: An unknown security error occurred.

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.

Error number: -2144108387 0x8033809D

An unknown security error occurred.

When i run it as local admin, everything goes well.

So, what am I missing?
