Error when I activate xp_cmdshell on linked server

[LyesH4ck]

Hello,

I would like to report an issue when I try to enable XP_CMDSHELL on a linked server.
A simple screenshot to describe the issue.

Thank you.

I will check and fix soon as possible, What I see here is, You can execute queries however you don't have enough privileges to enable cmdshell. can you give it a try to do it manually. Also try with -ImpersonateSA or DBO

Thanks for your response.
I wasn't sure if it was a permission issue :)

I thought I was Sysadmin on this instance.. But not...
I've tested the link with PowerUpSQL.

Thank you :)

Patched in new release... V2
Please spend some more time to find issues as such.
