Audit iPhone/Palm Users
This script is intended to use IIS logs to audit OWA/Activesync logs for syncing of mail from an iPhone or a palm device. This script is not perfect, nor the prettiest thing in the world but it works. It could be further added to parse for windows mobile devices. If it was really slick it would grab all the unique values in the DeviceType= portion and then automatically include all mobile types. You can email the results to yourself in $To varible.
IP Scan/Local User admin
Where I work, we don't use AD for roughly 30-60 servers. There are multiple identical local windows accounts on various servers, and when a person leaves the company, those accounts need to be deleted by hand. This group of scripts performs the following tasks:
1) Ping scans a range of IPs for responding hosts.
2) Takes those hosts and attempts to find the specified user
3) Optionally with the -delete flag, deletes the user
There's three parts to this script. The trigger which is run from the console in the same directory as the finduser.ps1 and set-localaccount.ps1 files. Note that set-localaccount.ps1 is from powershell.nu, with some minor changes that allow the computername to passed as a parameter.
Xml Module 4.3
My rewritten XML DSL now has better element name handling. "See Blog Comments":http://huddledmasses.org/a-dsl-for-xml-in-powershell-new-xdocument/
New-XDocument no longer requires the "xe" command as long as the name of your XML Element doesn't coincide with that of a PowerShell command (if it does, you need the "xe" on the front), and namespaces can be referred to by short name like dc:creator to keep things simple. Please review the examples on New-XDocument as this is a *breaking change*.
h4. The other functions round out the set of XML functionality (especially if you don't have PSCX).
In particular, my Select-XML improves over the built-in Select-XML by leveraging "Remove-XmlNamespace":http://poshcode.org/1492 to provide a -RemoveNamespace parameter -- if it's supplied, all of the namespace declarations and prefixes are removed from all XML nodes (by an XSL transform) before searching (so you can actually find things, even with namespace-qualified xml). It is *important* to note that this means that the returned results *will not* have namespaces in them, even if the input XML did.
Also, only raw XmlNodes are returned from Select-Xml, so the output isn't quite compatible with the built in Select-Xml -- instead, it's equivalent to using it the way I usually do: @Select-Xml ... | Select-Object -Expand Node@
*New*: Format-XML handles paths too :)
Get-ObservedIPRange
Get observed IP address ranges and VLAN IDs from an ESX host's physical adapter. Sample use at the bottom.
Get-VMCreationReport
Produces a report of the number of and names of VMs created broken down by month and year.
Manage ASP.NET Providers
Manage ASP.NET MemberShip, Role and Profile Provider with PowerShell. Especially useful with SqlMembershipProvider. I use it to manage SharePoint users with form based authentication (FBA).
ConvertTo-CliXml
Export-CliXml and Import-CliXml only work with files. This is an implementation for sending CliXML directly to the pipeline. Probably needs v2 powershell (not tested in v1).
Manage ASP.NET Providers
Manage ASP.NET MemberShip, Role and Profile Provider with PowerShell. Especially useful with SqlMembershipProvider. I use it to manage SharePoint users with form based authentication (FBA).

Given the context on the last few posts. I've made a simple helper method in C# that can take a simple powershell hashtable and create a PSCustomObject based on it. Here is an example of how you can call it.
[snapinini.newobjecthelper]::newObjectFast(@{name="karl";age=31;now = [datetime]::Now})
very simple and its at least 6 times faster than the closest other technique in powershell. Most of hte overhead is in creating the hashtable. (otherwise its 90 times faster). The hashtable syntax is very convenient however maybe even its overhead is too much and we deserve a better way.
Here is the C# method. Its pretty basic stuff.
public static PSObject newObjectFast( Hashtable noteproperties )
{
PSObject obj = new PSObject();
if (noteproperties != null)
foreach(DictionaryEntry item in noteproperties)
obj.Properties.Add(new PSNoteProperty((string)item.Key,item.Value));
return obj;
}
