Vista - Powershell & Active Directory

Im looking for some tutorial, whitepaper or anyting that get me going on how
to use powershell for AD administration

Anyone have a hint for me?

Theres a few places you can get information. There are a number of posts on
my blog (see below) regarding PowerShell and AD. One of the User Group
members has a good set of articles at http://www.leadfollowmove.com/

I would recommend that you get hold of the Quest AD cmdlets and start with
those. There is some good documentation with them. Current beta handles
users, groups and computers with more to follow. Can down load them from
http://www.quest.com/activeroles-server/arms.aspx. There are also a lot of
good examples of using them on http://dmitrysotnikov.wordpress.com/

HI Orphan,

I found similar issues. In the absence of examples out on the net, I
have put my own up from experience of using PS and AD.

They can be found here: http://www.leadfollowmove.com/archiv...ive-directory/

Apologies for the shameless plug

HTH

Cheers

I second this suggestion. The quest AD tools work well - and they've
recently updated!
