Something like this might work:

$provider = "WinNT://$ComputerName/LanmanServer"
$cred     = Get-Credential

$netfile  = New-Object DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry(
              $provider, $cred.UserName, $cred.GetNetworkCredential().Password
            )
$netfile.Invoke("Resources") | % {
  ...
}
