• host - Host of a Window machine to run the query on.
• username - Account username (defaults to Administrator).
• password - Account password.

For information on how to enable and configure WMI, please see the following page - Enable WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation).

These require winexe to be installed and available in the path.

For debian this is available by:

wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/uibmz:/opsi:/opsi40-testing/xUbuntu_12.04/amd64/winexe_1.00.1-1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg --install winexe_1.00.1-1_amd64.deb

The WinRM commands require WinRM to be configured to allow non-domain joined connections (untrusted). 2 actions are provided to set this up via RPC, setup_winrm and lockdown_winrm. If you have finished using WinRM, it is recommended to run the lockdown action.
