WMI and user account

[MAD]

Hi list,

I'm have to find a way to get some advanced monitoring metrics for 
Windows boxes. As SNMP is not really usefull on Windows (sic!) and I 
really don't want to be messing with locales to get data from the 
perfmon, I was looking to use WMI requests. However, each doc I've seen 
seem to tell me I have to use an administrator account to connect to the 
WMI agent and extract my data.

Is there a way to use an user account with restricted rights?

Thanks in advance,

Marc-André
