Thanks for that! I didn't realise that I couldn't specify credentials with certain commands.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I'm trying to create a Powershell script that retrieves a server name from a text file and then performs the get-service command on the server name and outputs the results to a file. The script that I am using is as follows<br />
<br />
$computernames = Source location of the computer names<br />
$credentials = get-credentials &quot;domain account name&quot;<br />
<br />
get-service -computername $computernames $credential | where-object {$_.Status -eq &quot;Running&quot;} | export-csv C:\Users\Output.csv.<br />
<br />
When I run this command I get the following error:-<br />
&nbsp;<br />
Get-Service : Cannot find any service with service name 'System.Management.Auto<br />
mation.PSCredential'.<br />
At line:1 char:12<br />
+ get-service &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt;&nbsp; -computername $computernames $credential | where-object {$_<br />
.Status -eq &quot;Running&quot;} | export-csv C:\Users\Output.csv<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; + CategoryInfo &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;: ObjectNotFound: (System.Manageme...on.PSCr<wbr />edenti<br />

&nbsp; &nbsp; + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NoServiceFoundForGivenName<wbr />,Microsoft<wbr />.PowerShel<wbr />l.<br />

<br />
Does anyone know where I am going wrong with this? <br />
