Microsoft Exchange 2010 PowerShell Cookbook (Review) [easyazon-image align="left" asin="1849682461" locale="us" height="110" src=" width="89"]PowerShell is hands down one of the most important skills than an Exchange administrator can learn. You can do a lot in Exchange Server 2010 using the GUI administration tools, but eventually you’re going to have to drop into the shell to do some deeper administration or simply to save time on bulk admin.
My first contact with PowerShell was when Exchange Server 2007 was released. I dipped into the shell only when absolutely necessary, preferring to stay in the GUI whenever possible. As time went on I found myself using the shell more and more, and developing a few scripts in my tool kit for some of the repetitive tasks that came with working primarily on Exchange deployments and migrations. Well it looks like that book has finally arrived in Microsoft Exchange 2010 PowerShell Cookbook by Mike Pfeiffer. PowerShell Key Concepts Summary.
Speed Up Excel Automation with PowerShell - Hey, Scripting Guy! Blog. Summary: Microsoft PFE, Georges Maheu, optimizes the Windows PowerShell script he presented yesterday. Microsoft Scripting Guy, Ed Wilson, is here. Our guest blogger today is Georges Maheu. Georges presented a script yesterday to gather Windows services information in an Excel spreadsheet. Although the script did an adequate job for a small number of computers, it does not scale well for hundreds of computers. Note: All of the files from today, in addition to files for the entire week are in a zip file in the Script Repository. Georges’ team blog can be found at PFE Blog OpsVault. Take it away Georges... Today, we look at scaling up yesterday’s script. The first version of the script was linear and simple but somewhat slow; it works well for a small to mid-size environment, but it does not scale well for larger environments.
When doing security assessments, most of the time, only a subset of computers is considered. Unfortunately, I am not aware of profiler tools for Windows PowerShell. Manipulation des fichiers en VBA - Club des décideurs et professionnels en Informatique. VBA propose des méthodes pour travailler sur les fichiers. Ces fonctions de bases telles que Dir, Name, etc. ont un comportement proche des commandes DOS. Malheureusement, elles sont beaucoup trop limitées et permettent, hélas, que très peu d'actions ou bien alors au prix d'un code lourd à maintenir. Afin d'étendre les possibilités en ce qui concerne la manipulation des fichiers et des répertoires, Microsoft à mis au point un ensemble d'objets regroupés au sein de la librairie Microsoft Scripting Runtime. Cet ensemble de classe hiérarchique possède une unique racine : le FileSystemObject, plus communément connu sous le nom de FSO. Bien qu'il s'agisse en fait du nom d'une classe, il n'est pas rare de voir le mot FSO désigner la technique d'accès aux fichiers dans sa globalité.
La hiérarchie des objets de cette librairie peut être comparée à celle de l'explorateur Windows : des fichiers inclus dans des dossiers qui eux-mêmes sont inclus dans des disques. I-B-1. I-B-2. I-B-3. I-B-4. I-C-1. PowerShell Code Repository. PowerShellInside by /n software - The Power Of PowerShell Inside Your Apps!

Harnessing PowerShell's String Comparison and List-Filtering Features. "Hmm. Wifi Hotspot! " When you are first learning PowerShell, it often seems to be an 'Alice through the looking-glass' world. Just the simple process of comparing and selecting strings can seem strangely obtuse. Michael turns the looking-glass into wonderland with his wall-chart of the PowerShell string-comparison operators and syntax.
PowerShell is an outstanding successor to the Windows/DOS batch language. The tradeoff for this added power and flexibility, though, is an increased complexity: learning PowerShell is not a trivial undertaking. Please imagine what it is like for anyone falling into this particular rabbit hole. "Funny, the doors are getting smaller, but the size of Windows keeps growing. " It was all very well to say "Program with me," but the wise little Alice was not going to do that in a hurry.
“Let’s try listing all the files in the current directory. Both of those sound like convenient aliases, Alice surmised. I started out in Accountancy, but then discovered Lisp. LDAP Query Basics. Topic Last Modified: 2011-01-13 By William Taylor This article discusses Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) queries, which can be useful, but confusing, when troubleshooting Microsoft® Exchange Server and its relationship to its directory. This article provides basic information about LDAP queries. = (EQUAL TO) This LDAP argument means a certain attribute must be equal to a certain value to be true. For example, if you want to find all objects that have the first name of John, you would use: This would return all objects that have the first name of John.
Parentheses are included to emphasize the beginning and end of the LDAP statement. While working with Exchange Server, you encounter situations that use LDAP strings. The following example illustrates how to search using Active Directory Users and Computers: Open Active Directory Users and Computers. This example attempts to find all objects that either have prez for their title or test for the start of their name. Slow script for getting list of ...
Search Users from Multiple Domains Using a Common Attribute–PowerShell Script ~ Santhosh Sivarajan's Blog. This script searches 2 Active Directory domains using a common matching attribute value (employeeID) and creates an out file with Source SamAccountName, Target SamAccountName and Name. You can use this script if you are performing user migrations and merging user accounts during the migration. Input file – Empid.csv – contains all employee IDs. Output file – UserInfo.txt - The script generates a TAB delimited file output which contains Source SamAccountName, Target SamAccountName and Name files. In this script I am using employeeID as the common attribute to search user account in the source (ss-infra.lab) and target (santhosh.lab) domains.

Google's Chromebook set to transform how we think about computers | Technology | The Observer.
On 15 June, Google will officially take the next step on its road to global domination. From that day onwards, online shoppers will be able to buy the Google Chromebook, a device that the search giant hopes will change the way we think about computers – and in the process rain on the parades of Apple and Microsoft. On the face of it, the Chromebook seems an unlikely game-changer. Its first two manifestations – from electronics giants Samsung and Acer – look like any old netbook: thin (0.79in) clamshell design, 12.1in screen, standard-sized keyboard, trackpad. At 3.2lb, it's not particularly light. The surprises start when you hit the on button. If this were a film, then the screen would go blurry at this point, signifying a flashback. But now it's 1993 and a kid called Marc Andreessen has just launched a new kind of program which gives you a graphical window onto this web thingy.
With hindsight, we can see that Netscape was too far ahead of the curve.
