Latest Scripts from PoshCode.org

Exch07 Quota Report
Power Shell 1 script used to grab mailbox stats for a Exchange 2007 server. It saves the information into a .csv file by changing the $OUTFILE variable. The script is pretty basic but it's a simple way of having a history of how people use their inbox space. There is no method for managing the saved files. I just make it a point to delete them when I run my months end maintenance.

Out-DataTable
Creates a DataTable for an object, based on script by Marc van Orsouw

Modified WOL impl.
This function can send WOL packages. Note that this a modified version of code already floating online. You need to specify the Mac address as a string. Optionally use -Ports (0,1000) to specify the udp ports. (use -verbose to show which pacakges are being send).

Start-Presentation
My current (WPF 4 compatible) PowerBoots-based Presentation Module. *REQUIRES* "PresentationFrame.xaml":http://poshcode.org/get/2104 and, of course, "PowerBoots":http://boots.codeplex.com This isn't really ready to be shared, but I always tell people if you wait until after you have time to clean it up, you'll never share it -- so since I'm unlikely to actually finish cleaning this up any time soon -- here it is. "See the screenshots for an example":http://HuddledMasses.org/images/PowerBoots/PowerBoots%2dPresentation.png

PresentationFrame.xaml
A required file for my "PowerShell Presentation module":http://poshcode.org/2105

Interviewed on PowerScripting Podcast

Jan 7

Written by: Don Jones
1/7/2008 6:42 AM

I was recently interviewed for Episode 16 of the PowerScripting Podcast. The hosts were kind enough to let me discuss several PowerShell-related topics in some detail, including my role with PowerShellCommunity.org, how to get started with PowerShell if you're a complete newbie, where this PowerShell thing is going anyway, and more. Give it a listen! Fair warning - it's pretty lengthy as podcasts go, but I think you'll agree that it's worth it. Play it during the morning commute!
