title: Powershell and XMLRPC
body: <p>We are a Windows shop using Powershell extensively.We also have a Spacewalk that I would like to poll some data from as part of the existing Powershell script. Spacewalk API is exposed via XMLRPC.</p>
  
  <p>I have spent some time searching for examples on how this can be done but the information is really scarce. The closest I could get was this link ( no longer available)

  <p>Lack of examples makes me think that I am looking in the wrong direction. I know about new-webserviceproxy and I used it for quering Sharepoint but I don't see anyone using it for XMLRPC calls. </p>
  
  <p>It is trivial to write the call in Perl or Python but this is not what I need in this specific case...</p>
  
  <p>Am I going the wrong way here?</p>
