Cannot open RemoteRegistry service on computer "ipaddress"

Votes:

0

I am trying to use the ScheduledTask2XML.exe that we downloaded and installed. My current parameters are 

-c="ipaddress" -t=helloworld -u=".\admin username" -p="password"

I enabled Remote Registry service to be Automatic on the remote computer. Is there something missing or not configured properly?

exexml scheduled-task scheduledtask2xml

Dear achavez,

thank you for your KB-posting.

Please do not use double-quotes for the parameters. If there are no whitespaces or special charakters, there is no need for quotes and even if there are whitespaces, please use single-quotes ' ' instead.

-c=10.10.10.10 -t=helloworld -u=admin/username -p=abcd1234

Best regards,
Sven

Hey Sven,

I tried it without double quotes and it didn't work. The issue was that I was on a different subnet. For some reason this affected the Remote registry. Thank you for you time and assistance.

Hi achavez,

How did you fix it? I'm facing the same issue and we are on different VLANs.

Thanks.
