You should be able to use WMI remotely as long as you have got appropriate
rights eg to use the WMI class's on Exchange you need to have been delegated
at least view only admin in the Exchange organization. Depending on the
level of detail you need you may find you need to mix the API's you need to
use eg there are something's you may not be able to get via WMI that you
need to use ADSI for, possible you may even need to use CDOEXM this is where
you may have problem using it across domain boundaries (eg with CDOEXM you
cant specify alternate credentials) but WMI is the easiest way to get
resource information such as how big mailboxes are etc. I don't code in C++
but I don't see this as problem to using WMI.
