Vista - how to start a written script

08-13-2007

Hello again,

i hope i don't have a stupid question. Look, when i will start a written
..ps1 script from the commandline (in this context: powershell.exe -noexit
&"c:\tmp\script.ps1"), the powershell starts, but the script won't execute. i
have also set the executionpolicy to unrestricted. Where is the trick?

Thanks for your support...

What's in the script? Make the script emit something, can you see the output?

The '&' should be inside the double quotes eg

powershell.exe -noexit "& 'c:\tmp\script.ps1'"

Hi Jon, and Shay,

i have already solved the problem. I have had a bad syntax in my dsadd
command.
THX for your fast support.

Have a nice day

Why use dsadd? I would recommend getting familiar with .NET
DirectoryEntry/DirectorySearcher classes... They should be fairly easy to
pickup.
