    Hello,

    A few months ago we updated the wmic binary to include the latest security changes made by Windows.

    https://firefly.artica.es/centos7/wmic-1.4-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

    With this version you should be able to continue your remote wmi monitoring operation without any problems.

    Kind regards

    Thanks for reporting this.

    We’re working in a wmic replacement, Windows servers will forbid this method in next release.

    Hello Sancho,

    what you mean with “wmic replacement” ? A completly new tool will be released? And could you estimate when?

    Thank you.

      Yes, it’s planned to be finished at 761 release. Will replace the current binary and it will have a similar interface, just to replace it. Please read carefully the release notes when the release it’s finished.

    In a week more or less, we have already a solution for this. You will need to replace the wmiclient for a new one. It will be detailed in the update documentation.

    Thanks for reporting this, please contact us here for any question regarding to this.

    Hi,

    Can you check if you have the following token enabled, if so, disable it and try again.

      Hi

      Have you tried to get information without additional parameters?

      Could you send the output of the pandorawmic command to check it?

      Thanks
      Kind regards

        Hi,

        yes i did and it works.

        I just want to now if by default the pandorawmic tool is using NTLMv2 and if it’s possible to use also kerberos, if so in wich way.

        Thank you

    Yes, with pandorawmic the use of NTLMv1 is restricted to SMB version 1 only if NTLMv2 authentication failed or SMB Extended Security is not supported.

    We have been checking about kerberos authentication and it is true that the new library used in pandorawmic supports this authentication, but it is not included in the new binary. We are going to check it to include it in next versions.

    Thanks
    Kind regards

      Hi,

      during these days i noticed that pandorawmic use of CPU is more intensive than wmic. Don’t you think?

        Hi

        We have not experienced that problem at the moment, we will monitor the CPU usage in depth.

        Kind regards

    Hi All,

    is possible that pandorawmic is creating a lot of subdirs like this one under /tmp ?

    Hi

    It´s true that this folder is created by python, but we have not this files in /tmp folder of our testing environment. Do you have wmi checks not working at this moment in Pandora Server or failing some times with timeouts problems?

    We have seen in other occasions with compiled files that can store these files when they do not finish the execution correctly.

    Kind regards
