I have seen great article
PowerShell 2.0 remoting guide: Part 8 – remoting scenarios and troubleshooting

I have this issue: I have two computers in domain, in network.
First Test OK: Remoting to a computer in domain from a computer in domain
COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor is Domain User.
Domain COMPANY_DOMAIN
Computer: iis01
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iisw01 -Credential COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor
[desiisw01]: PS C:\Users\desmonitor\Documents> exit
Second Test Wrong: : Remoting to a computer in domain from a computer in domain, using local administrator user
iis01\instalador is Local User for machine iis01
Computer: iis01
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01
-Credential iis01\instalador Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM
client cannot process the request.
In machine ii01 using Terminal Server (Remote Desktop) using COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor, I open PS Console and I execute
PS C:\Users\desmonitor> winrm quickconfig
WinRM already is set up to receive requests on this machine.
WinRM already is set up for remote management on this machine.
PS C:\Users\desmonitor>
Then, I try again but I get same error:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01
-Credential iis01\instalador Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM
client cannot processthe request.
Using this command:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "*" -Force
PS C:\Users\myUser>
Now, I get access:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01 -Credential iis01\instalador
[iiw01]: PS C:\Users\instalador\Documents> $Host

In my company, there are many computers to connect to iis01.
Each compute need execute the command for adding the remote computer to local computer’s trusted hosts list ??
I have several questions about it ¿
How can I get list about TrustedHosts (WSMan:\LocalHost\Client ) in local computer ?
How can I know if WinRM service is enabled in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM service is running in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM is set up to receive request in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM is set up for remote management on this machine?.
Best Answer
Q1. How can I get list about TrustedHosts (WSMan:\LocalHost\Client ) in local computer ?
Q2/Q3. How can I know if WinRM service is enabled in a computer ? How can I know if WinRM service is running in a computer ?
Q4. How can I know if WinRM is set up to receive request in a computer ? Not very sure on this but I will confirm. One way to find is to see if the client ports are listed or not. But, like I said, I can confirm this.
Q5. How can I know if WinRM is set up for remote management on this machine?.
You should be able to list the listeners.
If you don't see anything here, that means you are not setup for WSMAN incoming connections.
