Read remote file without file sharing

I'm trying to read a file on a remote computer howeve开发者_运维知识库r, ports for file sharing are blocked. Actually most porst are closed and only have access to execute WMI and Registry queries.

Is it possible to read or pull data from a remote server using WMI or the registry?

The WMI doesn't allow read the content of any local or remote fil. Instead provides a set classes to list, copy, rename, compress and get info about files and directories. These classes are CIM_DataFile, CIM_Directory and Win32_Directory. If you want to see a sample of how use these classes check this article Manipulating local/remote files and folders using Delphi and WMI which I wrote some time ago.

There's another possibility, created by Frank White a few months ago using this "cmd /c echo ..." approach:

strCommand = "cmd /c echo myTextCommands > c:\temp\testscript.txt"
