Hello,
I am trying to use the win_shell module to run a script which includes the username parameter.
- name: Execute {{ set_wmi}} to capture the existing user accounts for WMI security for the root namespace
win_shell: .\set-WmiNamespaceSecurity.ps1 root add “domain\username_sls” Enable,RemoteAccess,Methodexecute
args:
chdir: “{{ temp }}”
register: set_wminamespace
The result always seems to be “account not found”. I am not sure if it is trying to always pass the \ as part of the username.
If anyone can help or advise here, that would be much appreciated as I think I have tried username@domain, also I have tried to use variables instead of the actual account. Tried single and double quotes, everything results in account not found.
