WinRM 2.0 CTP2: New .CHM possibly this week

I reported HERE that there was a new WinRM 2.0 CTP build dated June 20th.

A new version of the help file was not included in the online download, but I understand we may see that this week.

New WinRM 2.0 CTP2 installs fine on Vista SP1

I recently announced a new CTP build of the new WinRM 2.0 CTP HERE.

I recently indicated that I was able to install this CTP2 *over* CTP1 on Server 2008, Server Core 2008 (actually over WinRM 1.1 in this case), and also I just successfully tested Vista SP1.

WinRM 2.0 CTP2 installs on Server 2008 Core

I reported HERE in May that the original WinRM 2.0 CTP would not install on Server Core.

As I mentioned last week HERE , there is a new 2.0 CTP2 build that was just released.

I'm glad to report that installs perfectly on Server Core 2008, and that on top of the built-in WinRM 1.1 that comes with Server 2008.

New WinRM 2.0 CTP2 build - June 20th

I've recently blogged about issues with the original WinRM 2.0 CTP build from May. I just noticed a new CTP build is available HERE.

I don't have confirmation that the issues with Server Core have been fixed. I also noticed the download doesn't have a seperate .CHM help file, so I'm unsure if the (hopefully, new) .CHM is packaged in the installer or not available yet.

WinRM 2.0 CTP on Server Core

I recently blogged HERE that the WinRM 2.0 May CTP would not install on Server Core 2008. I had posted an issue on the Connect web site HERE.

The feedback item was updated by Microsoft as being fixed. I expected this was going to be fixed soon. As I recently HERE, a new 2.0 CTP build is due soon.

WinRM 2.0 CTP: CTP2 due soon

I got word yesterday that we should be seeing a second CTP of the new WinRM 2.0 very soon.

There should be some documentation updates. In particular, I provided some feedback on the lack of details around hosting WinRM within IIS.

So, I'm hoping for these documentation updates, and I also understand that this should resolve the installation issue on Server 2008 Core.
