Learn how to use Powershell with AD, Exchange and Excel

Hi.
I want to learn how to script in Powershell to make my life easier at work.
Now, I'm creating Distribution Lists with cmdlets, and other simple moves, but I'd like understand and use scripts with Excel to make it easier in AD and Exchange.
Can anyone help me find out where I can learn Powershell with those tools? I've searched google and youtube, and bought books, but I'd like to learn especially about AD and Exchange through Excel.
I also have another question, I'm trying to collect the telephonenumbers in one OU in AD, and found this cmdlet:
Get-AdUser -Filter * -Properties OfficePhone | FT OfficePhone,UserPrincipalName
I lined ut the OU path before -Filter, and used * -Properties Telephones Mobile to find the phonenumber in Properties-Telephones-Mobile in Active Directory. But I'm obviously doing something wrong.
Could anyone please help me?

Hi Wezcomp,
first of all, you can use Get-Help to learn how to use Cmdlets, by asking them what it is they do:
Get-Help Get-ADUser -Detailed
By Adding the -Detailed Parameter, it will explain each Parameter of Get-ADUser and what it does. Then it will show you examples on how to use the cmdlet. Very useful tool,
Get-Help, learning to use it fully ought to be your first step, as this unlocks your access all other aspects of PowerShell. With that tool in hand, you could theoretically do the rest fully autodidactically (would be frustrating though, since you'd
like to be able to do something specific right now. Don't worry, we'll gladly help anyone truly trying to learn.).
There are lots of tutorials out there that can be useful in a general way (I added my own here). But regarding Excel:
As Fausto said, CSVs are the simple most way to do this. I'd advice against delving too deep into Excel manipulation right now (lots of frustration, little immediate rewards), Csv is your friend. Notable Commands:
Import-Csv
Export-Csv
For example, if you want to create a csv list with user data in it, using your previous example, you can do this:
Get-ADUser -Filter "*" -Properties OfficePhone | Export-Csv "C:\example\users.csv" -NoTypeInformation
By the way: FT (Format-Table) is a treacherous command: It displays objects to the console, but it is a dead end where data is concerned! Only use it when you want to check something quick on the console (like whether you got the right data), before
continuing on without using a Format command.
Cheers,
Fred

Trying to understand and learn how to use btrfs

I have been the past days trying to get my head around how btrfs works
I have been trying tools like mkinitcpio-btrfs (very poorly documented) and now, if i list the subvolumes i have in certain volume (/) i see i have 4 subvolumes that have been created while playing around.
If i try to delete them with "sudo btrfs subvolume delete __active", for example, I get a "ERROR: Error accessing '__active'
What am I doing wrong?
Also, I cannot get the whole idea about the difference between snapshots and subvolumes, i mean, a snapshot should be a directory that saves the changes made on the fs, s, if you want to roll back those changes, you just have to make btrfs "forget" the changes stored in that directory and move along, but I cannot take the idea of the subvolume thing.....
As btrfs is quite experimental and the wikis are not noob-proof still, I'd appreciate if someone gave me a hand trying to understand these concept...
For the moment, I'm just using it on a test computer and on a personal laptop with no fear of data loss,.
Any help is welcome
Thanks!

I honestly think it is probably a better idea to not use mkinitpcio-btrfs. As mentioned above, it is poorly documented, and for me it has never worked right (if at all). It is an unofficial AUR package, and unfortunately our wiki still seems to give the false impression that using this package is the way to user btrfs with Arch.
The way I have my system set up is that in subvolid=0 (the root of the btrfs filesystem) I have a rootfs subvolume and a home subvolume (there are others, but these are what primarily make up my system). So in my fstab, I basically have two nearly identical lines, but one has no subvol specified and is mounted at /, and the other has 'subvol=home' mounted at /home.
So in order to make it so that I can change the root filesystem as I please, instead of having the / fstab entry specify the subvolume, I put it in the kernel command line. That is, I have 'rootflags=subvol=rootfs' in the kernel command line. So if I want to change it, I simply change the path to one of the snapshots.
Just remember that if you are one who likes a custom kernel, it is likely that you will have to have an initamfs no matter what you compile into your kernel. For one thing, the kernel has no mechanism for scanning for multiple device btrfs filesystems. But also, I have read that the kernel itself cannot handle the rootflags kernel command line argument.
Oracle Linux does something interesting with their default setup. They are not a rolling release, so this probably wouldn't work so well in Arch Linux, but they actually install the root filesystem (I think it is actually done to subvolid=0) and then after installation of the packages, a snapshot of the root filesystem is made, and the system is setup to boot off of that snapshot. So it is almost like having an overlayfs on openwrt. There is always a copy of the original system, and and changes that are being made are being done "on top" of the original. So in the event of an emergency, yo can always get back to the original working state.
If you put your root filesystem on something other than the root of the btrfs filesystem (which you should, as it makes the whole setup much more flexible), then you should also set up a mountpoint somewhere to give administrator access to the filesystem from subvolid=0. For example, I have an autofs mountpoint at /var/lib/btrfs-root. chose that spot because /var/lib is where devtools puts the clean chroot. So it seemed as reasonable a place as any.
You should go to the btrfs wiki, and peruse through the stuff there... not our wiki, but the actual btrfs one, as our wiki is pretty sparse. There is not all that much content there (not like the Arch wiki), but it does cover the features pretty well. I mean, there is certainly quite a lot for being information on only a single filesystem, but it shouldn't take you too long to get through it. There are a few links to articles about midway down the front page. What really gave me a better grasp of getting started with btrfs were the ones titled "How I Got Started with the Btrfs Filesystem for Oracle Linux" and "How I Use the Advanced Capabilities of Btrfs".

I had no idea my iPhone and iPad were connected and I deleted "notes" I had on phone they also were removed from iPad. Can these notes be retrieved? After this mess I will go downtown to apple store and learn how to use these devices.

I had no idea my iPhone and iPad were so connected. I deleted notes from iPhone as I had them on iPad. Well was I surprised to see they were gone from iPad also. Can these be retrieved?

Because it says it's incompatible when it can't be, I got hope. I get error messages all the time with my iPod and iPhone that it cannot sync and that 'this device is not capapble of connecting to iTunes' stuff. I literally forget that happened, plug it in again and it works, I later realize that iTunes made a mistake, they do that.

What is best method for learning how to use mySQL with Coldfusion?

I have been using access databases for years with Coldfusion. I have a client that wants me to build an online classroom. I figure it's time to finally start using mySQL, but there is so much info out there, I don't know which way to turn.
Where do you experts recommend I get started?
Also, I am using coldfusion entrprise on my system at home. My machine is a 64-bit, 3.30Ghz AMD FX - 6100 six-core processor with 8gig of ram. Can I install mySQL on the machine and run CF8 without any problems?

How much RAM left on your system? If the computer is strictly for development, then you have more than enough to run ColdFusion, MySQL, browsers, and other development tools.
For MySQL download the MySQL Community Server and MySQL Workbench. There is also all-in-one package for Windows, http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/ that you don't need to download the server and workbench separately. The installation should be straight forward.
By the way, other CF users may suggest you to use MariaDB (https://mariadb.org/), which is a branch of MySQL.

Learning how to use C++ with Matlab files

Hi guys!
I'm Ph.D student who needs to run thousands of mathematical simulations. Actually I'm working in MatLab, but due the massive quantity of simulations, I decided to make some tests in C++ in order to improve the time of the computations.
Well the thing is that all my data it's in mat files (Matlab filetype) and i tried three things for access them:
Use the library <fstream> but i found extremely complicated, specially with double numbers. (In fact i have to convert all my data to a text raw file)
Use the native API of C++ from Matlab, but i get the error
Warning: You are using gcc version "4.5.2". The version
currently supported with MEX is "4.3.4".
For a list of currently supported compilers see:
http://www.mathworks.com/support/compilers/current_release/
and until now i don't know how to resolve it.
Finally i found one library http://sourceforge.net/projects/matio/ which in theory can handle mat files in C++ but I haven't could make it work in this test example http://na-wiki.csc.kth.se/mediawiki/index.php/MatIO:
#include <matio.h>
int main(void)
const double a[5] = {43.5, 5432.434, 3.32, 0.0001, 88834.0};
mat_t *mat;
matvar_t *matvar;
int dims[2] = {1,5};
mat = Mat_Open("simple.mat",MAT_ACC_RDWR);
if(mat)
matvar = Mat_VarCreate("vec1",MAT_C_DOUBLE,MAT_T_DOUBLE,2,dims,a,0);
Mat_VarWrite( mat, matvar, 0);
Mat_VarFree(matvar);
Mat_Close(mat);
else
return 1;
return 0;
because i get this:
/home/mikesol/projects/test/build> make
Scanning dependencies of target test
[100%] Building CXX object CMakeFiles/test.dir/main.cpp.o
/home/mikesol/projects/test/main.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:

make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/test.dir/main.cpp.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/test.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

i'm not so good in C++ to improve the code or know what is wrong. I'm sorry for that.
Summarizing: I'm stuck, so any help will be welcome.
Thanks in advance.

thanks to all,
@ngoonee: I'm going to try the solution described in your post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=86809.

how can I build an e-mail server with java (no matter how difficult)
please, I need help, and I really apreciate your help.
thank you very much!!

I have a situation here, I need to learn how to use
java with mysql
. Can I connect to a MYSQL DB with servlets?Yes... documentation to help you connect to any database can be found at http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc. To connect to MySQL, you'll need drivers (sourceforge.net), and the specific connection URL for those drivers will be included in the documentation.
how can I build an e-mail server with java (no matter
how difficult)If you're fairly new to JSP/Servlets, you may be in over your head here, since an email server is no easy application to code. Here's a link to the source code for the JAMES project... Apache's Java email server... maybe you can find some useful information there...

I have just started to use Muse for our design agency and learning how to build ourselves a new site, I have managed to create a basic lightbox which contains sliding images, what I need to do now is have a pop up window which goes into detail about the projects, what I would like is a piece of text or icon that when you roll over it and then click a separate window pops up with additional information in, once finished reading the info you can then click to close the box, any advice on how to do this?

The best way to do what you're asking is with the Composition widget. Start with the Tooltip preset, which, by default shows the info on rollover. You can change the option to show on click, which is what you're after. You can also add the close button or have the info disappear on rollout.

HT4783 I'm trying to learn how to use Airdrop between my wife's Mac and mine. We both have it, but this article did not help us learn HOW to share files. Yippeee that we can...but HOW?

My wife and I are trying to learn how to use Air Drop. The "tutorial" showed us where it is. It came up. I saw hers (Mac). She saw mine (Mac). But where to go after that is, apparently, in the cloud somewhere. The description says we can share files...which is nice...but nothing tells us HOW to share those files.
Thanks for your help out there...
Dennis

1. Open a new Finder window or use one that's already open
2. Click on Airdrop, press Shift+Command+R, or find "Airdrop" in the "Go" menu
3. Drag your file to the icon of the person you want to send the file to (if you have mountain lion, you can use the share button).
4. The other person has to click "save"
5. The file will send and appear in the receiver's downloads folder
In Mountain Lion, a new feature was added: the share button. It's a button with a picture of a box and an arrow jumping out of it. Click on it and the third (and last) option is "Airdrop" and clicking on it will allow you to send files over Airdrop without opening it in Finder.

It looks like you may need a mini-displayport to Displayport cable. You can also try holding the option key while clicking on "scaled" to see if the option you need comes up.

I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure.
