Comment on Transferring Active Directory FSMO roles with PowerShell by markwilson.it » Migrating infrastructure services to a Windows Server 2008 R2 computer

Fri, 11 Dec 2009 23:20:38 +0000

[...] With the new server running as a DC, I needed to transfer the FSMO roles. I did this by following the advice in Microsoft knowledge base article 324801 to: register scmmgmnt.dll; run the Active Directory Schema and transfer the Schema Master role; run Active Directory Domains and Trusts and transfer the Domain Naming Master role; run Active Directory Users and Computers and transfer the RID Master, PDC Emulator and Infrastructure Master Roles.

BTW – am I the only one who sometimes confuses the band names 311 and Blink-182?

* Yes, I’m thinking I am.

Everytime I hear a blink-182 song on the radio (which isn’t nearly often enough) I TAG the song and think — I really need to pick up one of their albums or download their songs from iTunes.

So here I am searching the web, doing PowerWF competitive research for PowerShell tools, and once again I find myself staring at Blink 182.

Have you looked at PowerWF? Drag and drop to create PowerShell cmdlets, snapins, and modules. Plus a parser to get a visual representation of existing scripts.

Comment on Converting a GUID string to octet string by Adam Bell

Hey Kirk.

I like it. Thanks for that. I still find a lot of the time my brain is still wired to think in VBScript. It’s getting there slowly :s

Cheers,

Comment on Converting a GUID string to octet string by Poshoholic

Hi Adam,

I just came across this old post while looking for a solution for this. I wasn’t totally satisfied with this because I didn’t want to have to write a custom function. A little more digging and I discovered this way to convert GUIDs:

[System.String]::Join(”,($guid.ToByteArray() | ForEach-Object {$_.ToString(‘x2′)}))

Just sharing in case you want another way to do this that doesn’t require the ReverseBytes function.

Kirk out.
