How to work with the Sharepoint cmdlet without installing sharepoint?

Question

I need to load the fields of a CSV file into a Sharepoint 2010 list using powershell. I work in Windows XP.

When I try to add-pssnapin

Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell 

It throws an exception like

"Windows PowerShell snap-in" Microsoft.SharePoint.Powershell "is not installed on this machine."

Is it possible to work with the Sharepoint Powershell cmdlet just by installing Pssnapin or by placing the necessary DLLs somewhere and downloading it?

Answer 1

I think the only way is Enable-psremoting on the Sharepoint server and from the XP computer enter-pssession -computername sharepointservername and Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell .

This way you can remotely control the sharepoint server
