In this session, we'll introduce you to Windows Powershell, what it is and what you can do with it. We’ll take a look at how you can use the shell to perform day-to-day administrative tasks. We'll start with a basic overview of shell concepts, commands, cmdlets and how to construct them. Then we'll move on to build more complex scripts, before rounding up with ways to administer windows using some of the reporting facilities available in the shell.

Richard Siddaway, Powershell Usergroup, powershell-uk@hotmail.co.uk

Richard Siddaway, MCSE, MCDBA, MCSD.NET, wrote his first program in 1970. After working in the seismic exploration industry he moved in to IT on a full time basis primarily working with Microsoft technologies as an Infrastructure Architect for Perot Systems. Currently specialising in Active Directory, Exchange and SQL Server much of his recent experience has involved migrating enterprises from Windows NT\Exchange 5.5 to Windows 2003\Exchange 2003. The programming background is still useful as Richard is a very experienced scripter always looking for the opportunity to automate a process. Having discovered PowerShell 18 months ago he has enthusiastically adopted it in preference to VBScript and has founded the UK PowerShell User Group.
