PowerShell 2.0 remoting guide: Part 8 – remoting scenarios and troubleshooting

I have this issue: I have two computers in domain, in network.
First Test OK: Remoting to a computer in domain from a computer in domain
COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor is Domain User.
Domain COMPANY_DOMAIN
Computer: iis01
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iisw01 -Credential COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor
[desiisw01]: PS C:\Users\desmonitor\Documents> exit
Second Test Wrong: : Remoting to a computer in domain from a computer in domain, using local administrator user
iis01\instalador is Local User for machine iis01
Computer: iis01
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01 -Credential iis01\instalador Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM client cannot process the request.
In machine ii01 using Terminal Server (Remote Desktop) using COMPANY_DOMAIN\desmonitor, I open PS Console and I execute
PS C:\Users\desmonitor> winrm quickconfig
WinRM already is set up to receive requests on this machine.
WinRM already is set up for remote management on this machine.
PS C:\Users\desmonitor>
Then, I try again but I get same error:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01 -Credential iis01\instalador Enter-PSSession : Connecting to remote server failed with the following error message : The WinRM client cannot processthe request.
Using this command:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Set-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts -Value "*" -Force PS C:\Users\myUser>
Now, I get access:
PS C:\Users\myUser> Enter-PSSession -Computername iis01 -Credential iis01\instalador [iiw01]: PS C:\Users\instalador\Documents> $Host

In my company, there are many computers to connect to iis01.
Each compute need execute the command for adding the remote computer to local computer’s trusted hosts list ??
I have several questions about it ¿
How can I get list about TrustedHosts (WSMan:\LocalHost\Client ) in local computer ?
How can I know if WinRM service is enabled in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM service is running in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM is set up to receive request in a computer ?
How can I know if WinRM is set up for remote management on this machine?.
Q1. How can I get list about TrustedHosts (WSMan:\LocalHost\Client ) in local computer ?
Get-Item WSMan:\localhost\Client\TrustedHosts
Q2/Q3. How can I know if WinRM service is enabled in a computer ? How can I know if WinRM service is running in a computer ?
Get-Service -ComputerName server01 -Name winrm | Select Status
Q4. How can I know if WinRM is set up to receive request in a computer ? Not very sure on this but I will confirm. One way to find is to see if the client ports are listed or not. But, like I said, I can confirm this.
Get-ChildItem WSMan:\localhost\Client\DefaultPorts
Q5. How can I know if WinRM is set up for remote management on this machine?.
You should be able to list the listeners.
Get-ChildItem WSMan:\localhost\Listener
If you don't see anything here, that means you are not setup for WSMAN incoming connections.
