Unable to add PowerShell host through domain user

[anuragvr]

Hi,

I am trying to add PowerShell host through PowerShell plug-in’s “Add PowerShell host” workflow by login in the VCO client as domain user then it throws error

Can't validate host:  Invocation of script $host threw exception (Dynamic Script Module name: addPowerShellHost#15)

When I log-in into the VCO client virtual machine’s Administrator user- then I able to add PowerShell host successfully..

Please help to short out this issue.

The first version of the plugin supports only basic authentication and not with domain credentials.

Update is prepared that will include also support for Kerberos authentication wich will allow usage of domain accounts.

Hi,

we've had the same problem.

There was a problem in the "PS-Remoting" configuration of powershell, of the target-system.

We've solved this by doing this:

Thanks buddy for reply, we already gone through this url but my problem is different I am not able to add PS host through domain user. I came to know that this the issue with PS plug-in itself.
