    Hi, can you please explain this code?

    Hi, maa was last here five years ago

    Also, have you read perlintro? What is it exactly that needs explanation, and why?

      Hi since I posted i've done some research and things are starting to clear up I guess.

      At this point i'm just kind of stuck on winmgmt objects and how to create these with different parameters and what they all mean. Also, he seemed to initialize the objects with one statement opposed to the other way I've saw it done.

      my $obj = Win32::OLE->GetObject( 'winmgmts{impersonateLevel=impersonat +e}' ); foreach $process( in $obj->InstaceOf("Win32_Process")){ #iterate through the list of LOCAL processes }

      But he has added ...

      .. , (security)}//$remote_computer\\root\\cimv2");

      So idk at the moment winmgmt objects are confusing me and I don't know what documentation will clear this up or what to look at to find a parameter list and things for the meaning of cimv2. Also how he has constructed the objects for the remote servers is beyond me at this point and seems pretty slick. What do you think?I am trying to delve deeper into these windows objects I suppose. I am going to keep hacking away at it
