In my current project, I need to get CPU utilization.
Example, I will have the IP, username and password of the server. I will ping that server using c# from my application and it will give CPU usage. The server will be under the same network.

Is it possible to get CPU usage?

What I have tried:

Till now, when I ping the IP address it is responding the server is turned off or not.

PING is just that: "are you there?" - and all the information you can get from it is a time for the round trip, which gives an "I'm alive!" signal - no other information is transferred.

I'm not sure you can get the remote computer's CPU stats without writing an app running on the server which responds to you when requested.

IF you can access this information from the Computer Management Application on your computer; you should be able to access it using the PerformanceCounter class.

I have used PerformanceCounter. I am getting error Access to deny. But its working fine to get own server information.

Sounds like a permission error; if you cannot get access possibly a "special user" could be created and impersonation could be used. Not my forte
