NetworkAdapter not setting?
Hi All
I've created the below script - everything works as expected bar the last line. No failure appears it just simply doesn't seem to recognise the command.
When i run this command manually or in a script on its own it recognises it without issue.
Any ideas?

Issue when retrieving ADUser Object remotely
Hi,
I have an issue in these lines :
Invoke-Command -Session $ADSession -ScriptBlock{
param(
[Parameter(Mandatory, Position = 0)]
[string]$UserUPN
)
$ADUser = Get-ADUser -Filter "UserPrincipalName -like '$UserUPN'" -SearchScope Subtree
} -ArgumentList $UserUPN If I type the Get-ADUser interactively in the session and stores it in a variable, I have what I expected : An ADUser object. But if I do the same remotely, the result is a string containing the CN.
Do you have any idea ?
The key of learning is practice.

Removal of secondayary proxyAddress/Domain issue with Set-ADuser
Hi,
I'm trying to remove an old domain/proxyaddress from all AD objects so I can then remove it from our O365 Tenant.
However I'm having a hard time in being able to write a PS that will do it in bulk.
If I run the below against a single user it works fine:
Get-ADUser user-propproxyaddresses|% {
$pr=$_.proxyaddresses-like"*@domain*"
Set-ADUser$_-Remove @{proxyaddresses=$pr}
}
However its against 3000+ objects so I really don't want to have manually run it against everything so I'm trying to get a bulk search/removal script but it's just not playing nice. I'm sure I'm just being stupid and missing something simple, but would really appreciate if someone could help me out.
$Users=Get-ADuser -Filter*-SearchBase"OU"
Foreach($Userin$Users){
Get-ADUser$User–propproxyaddresses|% {
$pr= $_.proxyaddresses -like"*@domain*"
Set-ADUser$_-Remove @{proxyaddresses=$pr}
}
}
But it throws the below error:
Set-ADUser : Cannot validate argument on parameter 'Remove'. The argument collection is empty.
At line:5 char:27
+ Set-ADUser $_ -Remove @{proxyaddresses=$pr}

Assigning a timeout to invoke-command
My script looks like:
$my_return_code = invoke-Command -Session $my_session -ScriptBlock {
param(
$my_arg1,
$my_arg2)
#
Get-ChildItem c:\ *.* -Recurse | select name > c:\myfolder\file1.txt
#
} -Args $my_arg1, $my_arg2
The scriptblock takes usually 300 seconds to complete.
I need to assign a timeout so that it stops after 30 seconds even if file1.txt is not complete.
How can I assign a timeout?

Logon Script Powershell -Printing
Hello,
I our school district, we have the staff which works in more than one schools. Since that staff can be only in the OU of one of the schools, so that staff is pulling the printers for that school only. The printers are deployed using GP.
In order to handle it, what I have done is that:
I have written the powershell script which will take in csv file with names of all the staff who works at more than one school and the names of the schools they work at. The powershell script will run as logon script and since it runs the users pull the respective printers from all the schools they work at.
The problem is that some of the printers not everyone can print to. They are network printers but only admin staff is allowed to print not the teachers. But when the logon script runs it tries to add those printers too and hence it cant connect and user see that prompt box of "Connecting to the Printer".
I was wondering if I could perform a check before adding the printers that if security permission are set to "everyone" can print then only add that printer. But I can't find a way to find out that. I was thinking of reading the security permission on the printers and then adding it.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Aman

Powershell in windows service not able to get results from WMI objects
We have a windows service which is running under a account that is not part of local admin. With in the service we call a powershell file using processstartinfo. With in powershell file we call the WMI class
"$AVGCPU = Get-WmiObject win32_processor | Measure-Object -property LoadPercentage -Average | Select-object -expand Average"The above code always returns 0. When i make the user as local admin then the cpu usage value is returned. Also when i run the same code in powershell launched
under the same user account (without giving local admin privileges), i am able to get the value for CPU usage. Its only when the cmdlets is called from windows service i am getting this problem. Due to security restriction, i cannot make the user as local
administrator. Any idea what rights should be given to the user that WMI class return value when called from windows service. Service
is running in windows 2008 R2 server

Remove Full Access permissions from shared folders with exceptions
Hi All,
Basically at my new work we have a shared network area with individual folders for each department. Each folder has multiple sub folders. The problem is the previous manager assigned 'full access' security rights on each folder and sub folder to absolutely everyone, including the 'everyone' group. I'd like to change the 'full access' security permissions to modify, but not for certain security groups like domain admins and certain other security groups.
I have some code in PowerShell that gives me a list of which groups have full access permissions but I need to be able to take that list and change them to modify.
I have the following code in powershell that outputs all groups with full access permissions to a folder that isn't in an except list. What I want to do is for each of the the groups it find, to change the 'Full Access' permissions to 'Modify', but I can't seem to find a way to do it.
$path ="\\srv-shared\sharedfolders"
$ExcludeUsers ='Domain\Domain Admins','NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM','BUILTIN\Administrator','domain\Administrator'# Create regex-pattern to match all excluded users
$ExcludeUsersRegex =($ExcludeUsers |%{[regex]::Escape($_)})-join '|'Get-Childitem $path -Recurse-Directory|ForEach-Object{
$file = $_Get-Acl-Path $file.FullName|Select-Object-ExpandPropertyAccess|Where-Object{
$_.IdentityReference-notmatch $ExcludeUsersRegex -and
$_.AccessControlType-eq "Allow"-and
$_.FileSystemRights-eq "FullControl"}|ForEach-Object{#Foreach ACLNew-Object psobject -Property@{Path= $file.FullName
ACL = $_.IdentityReference}}}|Select-Object-PropertyPath, ACL |Export-Csv e:\check_acl.csv -NoTypeInformationIt would probably sit in the '#foreach acl' section but I'm having trouble getting it to work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
