WinRM on a computer in an AD domain

This guide is an aid to perform basic configuration of WinRM, but you will need to adjust the settings for your environment should you require any particular parameters.

To sum up:

  1. Create a Group Policy object for the Active Directory® (AD) domain to which the computer belongs (note the time it may take for changes to propagate).
  2. Edit the item created in step 1 with the services required for WinRM.
  3. Create rules in the Firewall (of the operating system) to allow the incoming connection.
