Passing credentials with system.Net.WebClient?

jwhite — Wed, 29 Aug 2012 05:00:00 GMT

So I'm trying to validate connectivity to a website in my local environment. Using the blog: http://learn-powershell.net/2011/02/11/using-powershell-to-query-web-site-information/.

I'm using the following code:

Function webtest {
$web = New-Object system.Net.WebClient
Try{
$web.Downloadstring("http://website")
}
Catch {
Write-Warning "$($error[0])"
}
}

So the error I'm getting is:

WARNING: Exception calling "DownloadString" with "1" argument(s): "The remote server returned an error: (401)
Unauthorized."

According to the blog, I should see the contents of the website upon successful validation. How would i pass credentials to the website to ensure that I'm not getting denied access?

Thanks, remoting is enabled and I will verify credssp is enabled as I am not positive about that.

Why would credssp be required for this script if the client computer and destination server are in the same domain and the account used to login and also to run the remote powershell session are both domain admin accounts?

I know credssp is for multi-hop authentication, but it didn't look like that was required in this configuration I am using.

Also, for the file copy portion, I have another script that just copies a file and that works fine being run exactly as I ran this. How does that work? That script is below and I've not had any issues with it.

Import-Csv c:\Scripts\servers.txt | foreach {

$server = $_.name

$location = "\c:\Temp"

Copy-Item "\\server\Applications\dotnet4\dotNetFx40_Full_x86_x64.exe" -Destination $location -Force -ErrorAction silentlyContinue | out-null

if(-not $?)

{

"ERROR: could not copy file(s) to: $server at $location"

}

} | out-file errors.txt
