Just out of curiosity: what level of privilege do those credentials require? Administrator on the server? Just a user?
Also: are you in a position to comment on the efficiency of this WMI vs the NSClient protocol? I understand WMI can get at perfmon counters, which is what I use NSClient for at the moment. Not having to install the NSClient client (that's really weird to type and worse to read) on each server would be great; it'd be even better to not take 1second per data item (the NSClient client code takes two samples 1 second apart before returning, hence the fairly large default "timeout" for NSClient).
