Can I successfully establish a connection on a WinRM port to the remote machine? There are several things to get in the way here. In my experience these are the primary hurdles to WinRM sweet success. I'll address cross platform scenarios using plain WinRM, powershell remoting from windows and some Chef specific tooling using the knife-windows gem.

I'd like to lay out in this post some of the fundamental moving parts as well as the troubleshooting decision tree I often use to figure out where things are wrong and how to get connected. I started working for Chef about six weeks ago and it is not at all uncommon to find customers and fellow employees struggling with failure to talk to a remote windows node. Now armed with 2012R2 and more knowledge its simpler but lets say you are trying to connect from a linux box using one of the open source WinRM ports, there are several gotchas. It wasn't simple at all and took a few hours to finally succeed. I had been using powershell for about a year at the time and thought I'd give it a go.
At the time, powershell 2 was the hotness and many were talking up its remoting capabilities. This was my experience years ago when I made my first attempt to use powershell remoting to connect to an Azure VM. Connecting to a remote windows machine is often far more difficult than one would have expected.
