I have no knowledge on powershell but I am familiar with CMD

Here is what I need. A file that could be a batch or ps1 or whatever. A file that I can double click on and start running.

1. Change computer name.
Something like this

netdom join %computername% /domain:DOMAIN.COM /userd:DOMAIN\administrator /passwordd:P@ssw0rd

2. Restart Computer
Join computer to the domain (ask for login)
Just like when I go under my computer properties I enter the domain name and when I hit ok. It asks me for the domain username and password (which is different from the local machine.

3. Add a user to the Administrators group
Basically just like when you click on Administrators group then click add then it asks me for the domain login which is the same as the previous step. Then I type the username then check names . Then that user shows up and i click ok. (i want all this procedure in script)

4. Restart computer then Open a certain directory.
Just open a network folder that I can set myself. like \\whaterver\whatever\

Thats it!

Environment on remote server not known/set when doing remoting.

Hi,

I am new to PS have taken over an existing pool of PS scripts.
The 'hub' is a Scheduler that executes jobs on the local server (Server 2008).
Now we need to spread out the execution of the jobs on serveral servers. Romoting should be the answer :-)

My big problem is that when I, from the local server, do
$s = new-pssession -computername remote1
$j = invoke-command -session $s ....
the mapped drives and registry varaiables (and probably other things I have not found yet) are not know.

On the local server I connect as 'batchuser' an administrator that is the user running the Scheduler.
If I connect on a remote server (Server 2008 and Win7) as the 'batchuser' I have the environment - the mapped drives and the registry variables are know.

So why is my remote session not inheriting the 'batchuser' environment on the remote server? Interactive remoting give the same result.

Two examples on what I mean:
1. The shared disk drives E: and T: on the remote server:
PS C:\Users\batchuser> get-psdrive

WSMan                                  WSMan

When doing the remoting:
PS C:\Users\batchuser> invoke-command -session $ses -scriptblock {get-psdrive}

2. There is a registry variable named TNS_ADMIN, used when doing a connect to an Oracle database. When doing the lookup for a database on the remote server:
PS C:\Users\batchuser> tnsping p0011101

TNS Ping Utility for 64-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on 26-SEP-2011 09:4

Used parameter files:
C:\Oracle\Oracle11gClient\network\admin\sqlnet.ora

Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST =
21))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = P0011101)))
OK (10 msec)

I get info back from Oracle SQL*Net :-)

Doing the same with remoting:
PS C:\Users\batchuser> invoke-command -session $ses -scriptblock {tnsping p0011101}

TNS Ping Utility for 64-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on 26-SEP-2011 12:00:39

Used parameter files:
C:\Oracle\Oracle11gClient\network\admin\sqlnet.ora

TNS-03505: Failed to resolve name

The error shows that it cannot find the file tnsnames.ora (registry variable TNS_ADMIN contain the path).

I hope you can help :-)
