Integrated Windows authentication in PowerShell script

Question

_{Thursday, November 7, 2013 10:33 AM}

 I am connecting remote session through Invoke command which I have to pass credentials but I don’t

want save password in script file or disk or registry .

Is it possible to implement integrated windows authentication?

Note: I will be configure the script in schedule task is task schedule configure credentials will use to

connect to remote machine.

$s = New-PSSession -computerName OMIDCM077 -authentication credssp -configurationname microsoft.powershell32

-credential $cred

Here i will use service account to connect remote session .

Maybe -Authentication CredSSP ?

Have a look on the link below:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.management.automation.runspaces.authenticationmechanism(v=vs.85).aspx

Note: 

CredSSP authentication is available only in Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and later versions of Windows

I have checked the link but the password will store in the disk

it must take integrated windows authentication by default that is my requirement .

Then you should use Enter-PSSession and need to enable remote feature in server. Let me know if that helps.

No I have to use New-PSSession .

Think about security implications. If you are fine with hard coding the password

 $pw = convertto-securestring -AsPlainText -Force -String "PASSWORD"
 $cred = new-object -typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentlist "DOMAIN\USERID",$pw
 $session = new-pssession -computername "SERVERNAME "-credential $cred
 $session

Currently I am using CreditSSP but password should pass

Is there any way to read password from schedule task configuration or SSO or windows authentication
