Greetings,
I've installed the free Hyper-V Server 2016 (seems to be a core server). I'm not using a domain, just a workgroup.
When I try to remotely manage with Hyper-V manager on a Windows 10 box, I get "An error occurred while attempting to connect to server "IP." Check that the Virtual Machine Management service is running and that you are authorized to connect
to the server.
I can remotely manage the server -- confirmed using "Computer Management" MMC to remotely access and manage some components of the server.
Using this page (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/hyperv_on_windows/user_guide/remote_host_management) and others as a guide, these are things I have done:
"Enable psremoting" on both client and server. "enable-wsmancredssp -role server" on the server. "enable-wsmancredssp -role client -delegatecomputer fqdn-of-server" on the client, except instead of fqdn I used IP address. What
fqdn would I use in a workgroup?
I've also added the server as a trusted host to the client, via "Set-Item wsman:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts SERVERNAME/IP -Concatenate -Force" except again I used IP address instead of server
name.
I've also tried enabling the local administrator account on the client and giving it the same password as the administrator account on the server. I've also tried the "connect as another user" feature
of the Hyper-V manager, via localhost\administrator or just administrator.
Finally, the very last step of the link I provided is to make a group policy change on the client in the System\Credentials Delegation\ area. I enabled "Allow delegating fresh credentials with NTLM-only
server authentication" and added wsman/IP_address.
Any thoughts?
