Hi, I'd like to be able get remote PC folder size.
1. Remote PC is not a Domain member, so I need to point access credentials in a script, but I do not know where I need to connect using ConnectServer method...

here is part of the script:

Set objSWbemLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
Set objSWbemServices = objSWbemLocator.ConnectServer _
(strComputer, "root\cimv2", "user_name", "pasword")

I have this connection "objSWbemServices" working but I do not know how to make it working with "Scripting.FileSystemObject"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(\\remote-PC\C$\Folder1)
Wscript.Echo objFolder.Size

thanks

Use MapNetworkDrive to authenticate to the remote PC, get the folder size, then use RemoveNetworkDrive to disconnect.
