Exchange And Powershell Tuesday, November 03, 2009 10:57 PM (permalink)

Hello,

I am new to powershell and know nothing at all about it and I am supposed to be going on the course at some point however this needs to be done like yesterday type thing (like everything!) So any help in this area would be greatly appreciated. :)

We have just got a new contract and we are looking to create mailboxes for users within a certain group access to a specific mailbox store. The accounts are already created in AD and the E-Mail field is populated.

Thats my first thing.

The second thing is:

We need to bulk import a list of users into specified OU's.

So it would be a headteacher account into the following structure: schools\school name\generic accounts and then create the mailboxes to a specifiic mailbox store.

Also we would need to bulk create the generic account OU within 106 OU's.

I hope someone can help in some form?

Many Thanks

James

I wish I could help but not many of us have been allowed to take a look at our Exchange 2007 installation...have you looked at the examples here to see if there is something to help you get started:

Hello,

Thanks for the reply I will check it out.

Its pretty much the same for us we just have it and were learning to see how it works etc and see if we can make the users etc quickly and get it up and running as were supposed to be going live in 2 weeks so nothing like a bit of pressue getting primal script 2009 and exchange 2007 and powershell one of which we know about and told we need to script it for ease etc.

Does anyone know how to get the powershell snappins for primalscript as a side note as its not playing with something I found on the web?

Many Thanks for the link and anyone else who has any advice then please respond as it is very important we get this up and running as its a new contract which cant fail!

Thank you all in advance

James
