Net::WMIClient version 0.62 ====================== This module provides a pure perl interface to the WMI client from the wmi package that does not require forking to execute wmic. It requires that lib_async_wmilib.so from the WMI package be installed, and that the configured WMI source code be available at build time to provide the required headers. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL (You will be prompted for the path to the WMI source) make make test make install TESTING By default, network tests are not done. If you wish to do network tests against a Windows machine, you need to create a Samba auth file with proper credentials in it, and run 'make test' as follows: WMICLIENT_AUTHFILE= WMICLIENT_TESTHOST= make test That will run a few basic tests against the host using the specified credentials. DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: lib_async_wmilib.so from the wmi package, along with the configured source code at build.
