  [out] uint32 DaysLeft
);

Remarks

To connect to the \root\CIMV2\TerminalServices namespace, the authentication level must include packet privacy. For C/C++ calls, this is an authentication level of RPC_C_AUTHN_LEVEL_PKT_PRIVACY. For Visual Basic and scripting calls, this is an authentication level of WbemAuthenticationLevelPktPrivacy or "pktPrivacy", with a value of 6. The following Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) example shows how to connect to a remote computer with packet privacy.

strComputer = "RemoteServer1" 
Set objServices = GetObject( _
    "winmgmts:{authenticationLevel=pktPrivacy}!Root/CIMv2/TerminalServices")

Managed Object Format (MOF) files contain the definitions for Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) classes. MOF files are not installed as part of the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK). They are installed on the server when you add the associated role by using the Server Manager. For more information about MOF files, see Managed Object Format (MOF).
