Special Configuration for WMI on Different Systems

On a Windows XP Pro computer, ensure that remote logons are not being coerced to the GUEST account (referred to as
"ForceGuest", which is enabled by default on computers that are not attached to a domain). Open the Local Security
Policy editor by clicking Start > Run and entering secpol.msc. Open the Local Policies node and select Security
Options. Then, scroll down to the setting titled Network access: Sharing and security model for local accounts.
If this is set to Guest only, change it to Classic and restart the computer.

namespace, the user might need to change the LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy as needed.
