  • Re: Remote PowerShell - profile to roam when connecting to multiple systems?

  • Re: Remote Powershell - options to run commands?

    Don, So I've read a fair amount since this post and I bought your last book, but I'm looking at the new "lunches series", and I think I'm still a beginner, but do I need to know powershell 1 or 2 before ordering the powershell 3 book series? I've read about 20 contradicting...
