If you use PowerShell remoting and get “HTTP 403” errors, one of the more obscure reasons for this is a proxy that interferes with your request.
It’s easy to exclude the proxy, though. Simply add a session option to your call and set the ProxyAccessType to “NoProxyServer”:
# you are connecting to this computer # the computer in $destinationcomputer needs to have # PowerShell remoting enabled $DestinationComputer = 'server12' $option = New-PSSessionOption -ProxyAccessType NoProxyServer Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock { "Connected to $env:computername" } -ComputerName $DestinationComputer -SessionOption $option
