Trainer: Don Jones | Videos: 18 | Time: 6 hrs
Are you tired of redundant tasks? Tired of needing to look stuff up every time you administer a new app? Then you’re in luck. Windows PowerShell is the all-in-one engine for administering Windows servers and applications.

Trainer Don Jones shows you how to automate Windows with PowerShell -- including tasks such as gathering remote management information from servers and desktops. In no time you''ll be automating many of your key administrative tasks -- like using a single command-line to import a hundred users from a CSV file into Active Directory.

With PowerShell you’ll be spending far less time on routine tasks and a lot more time on special projects -- the fun stuff that drew you to network administration in the first place.
