Which is just a layer on top of Powershell. The Active Directory Powershell module is still required. It's not required, or that module is included already in Windows 10 by default. Because I haven't had to install it on any machine I managed with Ansible. "win_domain_group_membership requires the ActiveDirectory PS module to be installed" https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/windows/win_domain_group_membership.ps1 They have it in the documentation as well "This must be run on a host that has the ActiveDirectory powershell module installed." https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_domain_group_module.html

@Kelly said in Use Powershell to audit Windows service accounts: Unless you're wanting to use Powershell for a learning experience you might look at something like this: http://www.cjwdev.com/Software/ServiceCredMan/Info.html. If you still want to use the Powershell route this might be a good way to check the success of your script. That looks like it will do exactly what we want... thanks for the link.

@gjacobse said in PowerShell: Public Folder Search / remove: Is this what I am looking for? Remove-PublicFolderClientPermission -Identity "\My Public Folder" -User Contoso\Chris Looks correct to me.

I can't remember where is nabbed it from, but I use the following: Function Mailer { $emailTo = "" $emailFrom = "" $subject="It's broken, damn it" $smtpserver="" $smtp=new-object System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient($smtpServer) $Message = @" Insert a useful/meaningful message here. "@ } Mailer Last line calls the function (duh for you, but a visitor here might not know).

@gjacobse So basically you want to iterate through a list of computers the same script correct? So do you have a list of computers? What are other steps on your script? because what we can do is the following *$computers = import-csv -Path "c:\script\computers.csv" foreach ($oldname in $computers){ Rename-Computer -NewName $newname -DomainCredential domain\admin -Restart} This assumes you have a CSV file with a oldname and new name columns with computer names.
