I have about 1500 guests under management, most of which are windows. A few guests are not accepting connections from Ansible. Looking at their WinRM configurations they are set to listen on all IPs for the WinRM listener, their windows firewalls have exceptions for 5986, but when I do a netstat they're not actually listening on their base IP. Some are listening to all other IPs except that base IP, other times if there's just a loopback and a base IP they're only showing results in netstat for the loopback. Has anyone seen anything like this?
Example: PS C:\Users> winrm e winrm/config/listener Listener Address = * Transport = HTTP Port = 5985 Hostname Enabled = true URLPrefix = wsman CertificateThumbprint ListeningOn = 10.11.XXX.XXX, 127.0.0.1, ::1 Listener Address = * Transport = HTTPS Port = 5986 Hostname = true Enabled = true URLPrefix = wsman CertificateThumbprint = CENSORED ListeningOn = 10.11.XXX.XXX, 127.0.0.1, ::1 Yet when I do a netstat -nao | findstr 5986 I get: PS C:\Users> netstat -nao | findstr 5986 TCP 0.0.0.0:5986 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 4 TCP [::]:5986 [::]:0 LISTENING 4 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
