WMI provider method terminates after creation

Hi,

I have to use a combination of alternative username/password

credentials and remote process creation and fetching its output on

termination. So I can't use the moniker style GetObject as it doesn't

support alternative username.

Am using the following code, but it creates the process, gives me the

PID but when I RDC to that remote machine, I don't see that PID in the

task manager. What could be wrong? Please help me. The following code

is taken largely from the MSDN link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384833(VS.85).aspx

--------------*-------------*------------------

Set locator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")

Set service = locator.ConnectServer("192.168.1.34","root

\cimv2","Administrator","password")

service.Security_.ImpersonationLevel = 3

Set process = service.Get("Win32_Process")

Set inparams = process.Methods_("Create").InParameters.SpawnInstance_

inparams.Properties_.Item("CommandLine") = "Notepad.exe"

Set outparams = process.ExecMethod_("Create",inparams)

If Error = 0 Then

WScript.Echo "Process created with PID of " & outparams.ProcessId

End If
