This module leverages the remote command execution feature provided by the BMC Patrol Agent software. It can also be used to escalate privileges on Windows hosts as the software runs as SYSTEM but only verfies that the password of the provided user is correct.

The powershell version tends to timeout on the first run so it may take multiple tries.
