    Not even one-handed typing with a gimp shoulder in a rotator cuff cast can stop me from blogging this... PowerShell 2.0 CTP is now available! I won't get to play for weeks, sadly. So...on an unrelated note; anyone know what's the best dictation software out there? Thanks.

    I'm so excited -- my best friend and tech partner-in-crime, Brandon, recently picked up PowerShell after I gave him a copy of Wrox's Professional PowerShell. He totally loves it and has already created a few new PowerShell scripts and converted other ASP.NET/VBScript scripts. One of his favorite scripts checks the …

  • PowerShell 1.0: Adding Virtual FTP Directories to IIS 6 or 7

    While my firm explores using WebDAV and SharePoint 2007 for exchanging large amounts of files, we're temporarily using FTP dropboxes to fill the void. Last Monday, I setup 11 new accounts and it took a total of one hour to complete the same 15 step process (give or take) for each account. By the time I was finished, I …

    This code has been in my drafts box for 2 years. I figured I'd just go ahead and publish it, though I'm unsure of the context now. $dom = [System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain]::GetCurrentDomain() $root = $dom.GetDirectoryEntry() $search = [System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher]$root $search.Filter = …

    So I'm making the move to PowerShell. It's painful learning such alien (to me) concepts but books like Lee Holmes' PowerShell: The Definitive Guide help a ton. I was fortunate enough to be the editor for Chapters 1-5 and got a sneak preview. It's a fantastic book and can't wait to receive the title, complete with …

  • Powershell: Working with Passwords

    Jul 26, 2007 · 2 min read  ·
    Share on:

    When creating a new Active Directory user from the command line in PowerShell, you will likely find yourself using Read-Hosts's asSecureString switch when entering the password. $password = Read-Host "Enter password" -AsSecureString Next, you'll probably look around the Internets for a few hours or so trying …
