The following example connects to a remote computer and displays information about the operating system on the remote computer. A ConnectionOptions is created to connect to the remote computer with default connection options.
using System; using System.Management; public class RemoteConnect { public static void Main() { // Build an options object for the remote connection // if you plan to connect to the remote // computer with a different user name // and password than the one you are currently using. // This example uses the default values. ConnectionOptions options = new ConnectionOptions(); // Make a connection to a remote computer. // Replace the "FullComputerName" section of the // string "\\\\FullComputerName\\root\\cimv2" with // the full computer name or IP address of the // remote computer. ManagementScope scope = new ManagementScope( "\\\\FullComputerName\\root\\cimv2", options); scope.Connect(); //Query system for Operating System information ObjectQuery query = new ObjectQuery( "SELECT * FROM Win32_OperatingSystem"); ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(scope,query); ManagementObjectCollection queryCollection = searcher.Get(); foreach ( ManagementObject m in queryCollection) { // Display the remote computer information Console.WriteLine("Computer Name : {0}", m["csname"]); Console.WriteLine("Windows Directory : {0}", m["WindowsDirectory"]); Console.WriteLine("Operating System: {0}", m["Caption"]); Console.WriteLine("Version: {0}", m["Version"]); Console.WriteLine("Manufacturer : {0}", m["Manufacturer"]); } } }
