I get this error when running any command using psexec to a Win2012 server:
PsExec.exe -u <user> -p <pass> \\<server_ip> cmd.exe
PsExec v2.11 - Execute processes remotely

Could not start PSEXESVC service on <server_ip>:
Error in the remote procedure call was cancelled
I tried the following:
- put the user and password before the machine name
- put the machine name before the user and password
- use the server IP
- user the server name
- register the connection with
net usebefore trying to run the command - add the credentials with
cmdkey
All of this with no success.
Things to take into account:
- Some other person tries the command and works for her, apparently.
- The user I use to connect to the machine is not a local user, but an Active Directory user of some domain (I am not allowed to use local users).
