My background includes various positions in Software Development, Technical Communications, Technical Support (was setting up 24×7 phone support in Aelita Software – that was a fun job!), Product Management, and now New Product Research.
Right now I am mostly involved in strategic planning and directions for Quest’s Windows Management Business Unit and our Microsoft collaboration. I am doing a lot of traveling meeting with Quest staff globally, our customers and partners, Microsoft, attending conferencing, talking to press and analysts.

Installed Mgmt Shell for AD and PowerUI. Get error “specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted”. Can’t browse anything in Active Directory folder within PowerGUI.
How do I resolve this?

Jim,
Is your computer joined to an AD domain? It looks like it is not – so the cmdlets by default are trying to get to the “current” domain and fail.
If this does not help, please post the issue to the discussion forums at PowerGUI.org and someone will help you troubleshoot the issue.

Hi I founf out, you install .net into server core (when try run powershell). I need ASP.NET here is there any similar hack ?
Thank you
Petr, you can follow these same steps just to install .NET 2.0 (or in fact 3.0 and 3.5) and see if ASP.NET works on top. I have not tried this. Might work – or might not – or might just partially work if some ASP.NET-specific classes have specific GUI requirements and rely on Win API not present on Server Core.
Hi Sergei,
One of the most pervasive scripting issue which I faced when using VBScript is that there is no way to programmatically set network adapters’ (multi nic) binding order AND also to enable/disable protocol and services (like client ms network, network monitor driver, etc) for each network adapter.
These are still done manually by hand.
I thought powershell should have something like this, but so far no one seems to have scripted anything like this in powershell.
I wonder with your expertise if you know how this can be done via powershell
Thanks for listening.

Kevin,
Actually my name is Dmitry – not Sergei.
While I don’t know the answer to your question, if there is some .NET or WMI way of doing this – PowerShell can do the job. So I would recommend that you look through various MSDN documentation, and ask in the forums: e.g. at http://powergui.org – if you cannot find anything.
