I am running Node-RED on ubuntu and want to be able to check on a couple of Windows services. Does anyone know how I can do this?
I was thinking maybe WMIC or such, but finding working tool is proving hard.
Thanks

Yes, WMIC is one method. There is an npm package for node.js wmic - npm (npmjs.com) - you should be able to use that with Node-RED.
Don't forget that you may need to turn on remote access to WMIC.
Alternatively, if the Windows device is a server (can be done on workstations too but is simply harder to manage for large numbers of devices), you should probably be using real-time log analysis or real-time reporting.
