Today I had spent a lot of time troubleshooting one module. After few checks I realized that it was simple typo that prevented PS from seeing my module in correct way. So here is function for you to avoid same problems… ;) check-in: d624785806 user: Bartek Bielawski tags: trunk

This script runs a variety of checks on server hardware to get status or basic information. It can check memory, perc events, firmware versions, gets service tags, shows summary hardware status, retrieves ESM log, and can auto load the omsa webpage. This is a basic overview of some dell WMI related namespace operations which can be easily extended as needed. To run the script, provide the name of the function you want to call and the remote machine name to check. Note: WMI namespace for Dell is installed with dell openmanage software, v4 and higher. check-in: 0b9af82535 user: Nathan Linley tags: trunk

Presents the user with a .NET GUI box to collect subnet (10.30.49), starting node (1) and ending node (254). Uses this info to collect information from every PC on that subnet within that node range and then outputs data to a spreadsheet. Example shown outputs to OpenOffice Calc but I have a seperate one for Excel output. This is one of my first attempts at really useful scripts. Im sure there are some things that could have (should have) been done differently or better. check-in: cbbcd3d901 user: Brad Blaylock tags: trunk

Send an email via the GMail SMTP server (or any server, really, but there’s some extra code in here and defaults that will make it work with Gmail so you won’t have to do research). NOTE: there’s a Send-SmtpMail in PSCX, but as far as I can tell, there’s no way to convince it to use SSL so I can’t get it to work with Gmail at all. check-in: a33202810c user: unknown tags: trunk

Creates a bridge between (any) MUC chatroom and a Jabber user — by default it joins the #PowerShell channel at IRC.FreeNode.net and echos everything said there to you, and everything you say to it … to the chat room.

push-module will import a powershell v2.0 module and ensure that when the module is removed using remove-module, the functions the module clobbered are restored. UPDATE: previous version restored (promoted to global scope) clobbered functions that were visible from push-module function scope; this is wrong – it should only restore global functions. check-in: 62f384e984 user: Oisin Grehan tags: trunk

This is an overhaul of Jeffrey Snover’s original Start-Demo script … I’ve switched it to use ReadKey, which saves you some typing and makes the whole thing seem more natural when you’re demoing, (at least to me).

13:00
This is like a (very simple) “more” script for PowerShell … the problem with it is that you’re paging by a count of objects, not by how many lines of text they’ll output … so the paging doesn’t really work except for format-table output … unless you specify it manually. However, this script provides you with “an option” if you want to have paging and still be able to use a script to color the output based on context or syntax. check-in: 2b5a1b18d0 user: Joel Bennett tags: trunk

This script is intended to use IIS logs to audit OWA/Activesync logs for syncing of mail from an iPhone or a palm device. This script is not perfect, nor the prettiest thing in the world but it works. It could be further added to parse for windows mobile devices. If it was really slick it would grab all the unique values in the DeviceType= portion and then automatically include all mobile types. You can email the results to yourself in $To varible. check-in: 2c1c95bafe user: psukus tags: trunk

Never content to leave well-enough alone, I’ve rewritten my XML DSL with 100% less cruft. New-XDocument no longer requires the “xe” command as long as the name of your XML Element doesn’t coincide with that of a PowerShell command (if it does, you need the “xe” on the front), and namespaces can be referred to by short name like dc:creator to keep things simple. Please review the examples on New-XDocument as this is a breaking change. check-in: 104df129fb user: Joel Bennett tags: trunk

This script will query your AD for all users, groups and contacts. It will then process through each of the SMTP addresses for all objects and count the number of occurances of each address. The scope expanded as I kept thinking of other interesting questions regarding the SMTP addresses that were in my domain. Once the script has finished gathering interesting data regarding the SMTP addresses in your domain, it will dump that information out to a spreadsheet (requires Excel), then send the spreadsheet as an email to you. check-in: 7e018d58f8 user: Kevin tags: trunk

The ultimate template-based password generator. Example usage: New-Password Cvcvc.## generates a memorable 8 character password with uppercase, lowercase, punctuation and a number. Of course, since these passwords are templated, they are arguably easier to crack (if someone knows your template), but of course, you can generate purely random passwords using New-Password ******** or you can vary the length of the password by allowing variable numbers of characters in your template: New-Password "Cv3c2v3c#4" check-in: b72e2cbff6 user: Joel Bennett tags: trunk

I came across an article on the “Microsoft Active Directory PowerShell Blog”, it has a great script for analysing nested group memberships. Unfortunatly to use the PowerShell script you need to be running Windows 2008 servers for the Active Directory cmdlets to be available.
