Proofing the Proof
I just got the proof from the printer for Managing Active Directory with Windows PowerShell: TFM. It always exciting to hold a finished (or close to finished) book. As soon as we check the proof and give the ok to the printer, books will be available. We’re trying to get this turned around as soon […]

Touch This
One of the last tasks for the Active Directory Powershell book was to assemble all the script samples. When the book is available you’ll be able to download a zip file from SAPIENPress.com. One thing I wanted to do was to use the file time stamp as a versioning tool.

Searching Word
One of the last tasks I needed to accomplish to get Managing Active Directory with Windows PowerShell: TFM ready for publication was to assemble all the script samples. They’ll be available for download from SAPIENPress when the book is published. I knew that most of the scripts were in my primary scripts directory, but probably not all. I usually copied scripts from my test environment to my scripts directory but I knew some were bound to be missing. I didn’t want to manually open 16 chapters, search for script names, check if I had the script and then move it to a new folder. I don’t have time for that. But I do have time to figure out how to do it in PowerShell.
