I'm running a Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 which is on a domain. I'm trying to connect to it via the Server Manager in Windows 7 on a laptop that is not on the domain. From my understanding, you need to use HTTPS when connecting from a remote server manager IF the client is not on the domain, which is my case. I tried to switch the Hyper-V Server to HTTPS by doing "winrm quickconfig -transport:https"
Then I get an error:
WinRM already is set up to receive requests on this machine.

Then I ran "winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener" and recieved the output of:

Can anyone shed some light on this? We don't use certificates within the domain.
