Vista - Executing PowerShell Scripts with IIS

11-21-2008

Hello,

we would like to write a frontend website to manage some of our Exchange
Server's administrative tasks (we manage Exchange Server 2007 via PowerShell
and therefore we have a lot of PowerShell-Scripts already).

Is there a possibility to execute these PowerShell-Scripts from a website
running on IIS and how can we pass parameters (e.g. that have been put into a
html form) on to the script upon execution and vice versa (how can we pass
the script's output back to the website)?

Any help or information, also regarding the language, in which we should at
best program this website (ASP.NET 2.0? PHP?) would be very much appreciated!

Thank you very much,
officer07

You might want to look at PowerShellASP from http://powershelltoys.com
which integrates with ASP.Net. Adam Smith has a post on his blog
talking about how they're using PowerShell ASP to manage Exchange 2007

This is how I do it:

And, here is some sample ASP code in C#:
