If you google around a bit, you can also find a few PSExec GUI's floating 
around.

It’s actually very simple. The usage info, download link, and a few examples 
are located here:

FYI: You don’t need to copy PsExec to the remote system.

PsExec may come in handy here to pipe the output of “net accounts” to a text 
file.

From a WMI perspective, there is unfortunately no one reliable place to get 
this. Win32_NetworkLoginProfile will return Password Age, Bad Password Count 
and Password Expiration time for a given user logged into a system. 
Win32_UserAccount holds some of this info for a local user account. You would 
think RSOP would hold this on the local system but alas, it is not very 
reliable on returning this but in fact its not if you are trying to query the 
remote machine’s RSOP namespace (root\RSOP). I would say that the MOST reliable 
way to get it is to use the LSA* Win32 APIs to query these values directly from 
the SAM on that system, but alas,  I haven’t used them specifically and don’t 
have a lot of information for you on doing this.
 
If you can run a remote shell on a system, you can simply type ‘Net Accounts’ 
to get the local effective password policy.

I’m looking for a way to remotely obtain the password policies of a group of 
servers that are not part of a domain.  I was looking to see if there was a 
WMIobject I can work with for powershell.  Any ideas?
