enter-pssession to phoneserver and connect-ippbx failed

[tmuellerchen]

Hello Swyx-Forum,

 

I try to connect to our Swyx-Server via Remote-Powershell:

 

enter-pssession svr-xxx

 

I do this as admin and then I try to 

 

connect-ippbx

 

but it fails with a lot of errors. I check the modules with

 

get-modules

 

and the ippbx modul is present.

when I do the same direct on the swyx-server with the same user, the connection works fine.

 

does the swyx-powershell dont work via pssession ?

 

thanks in advance

thomas

Hello Thomas,

 

please post the error messages here, otherwise it is hard to say why it does not work.

It looks like this:

I get the exact same error. You basically can't use

Connect-IpPbx

from a Remote Computer. Not with Invoke-Command and Also not With Enter-PSSession or New-PSSession.

 

Without Connect-IpPbx you can't use any of the IpPbx Cmdlets.

 

That's a pity because I would really like to include an automatised Setup of a Swyx User in my AD User Setup Script, so I would really be interested in an elegant solution.

 

Any ideas?

 

Edit:

 

You have to install the IpPbx Module on your local machine (just copy the folder to C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules, and then you can use it like so:

Connect-IpPbx -ServerName swyxserver

Hello, maybe a bit late but read it by accident. I myself have always worked with remote scripts.

First establish the connection to the server with "New-PSSession".

 

$psSession = New-PSSession -ComputerName "***" -Name "***"

 

If credentials are required, simply provide them. Then transfer the commands via "Invoke-Command".

 

Invoke-Command -Session $psSession -ScriptBlock {connect-IPPbx}
