The GPOGUY-- Group Policy Blog

Well, today we announced the release of v.1 of the GPExpert Scripting Toolkit for PowerShell. As I mentioned in an earlier post, this is the culmination of something I've talked about doing for a long time--programmatic access into Group Policy settings. With the release of the Toolkit, we can now provide that for everyone...and via the new PowerShell scripting environment from Microsoft! The early feedback I've received from beta testers is that this is a great thing that willl empower them to automate GP management processes that before now were difficult to impossible to automate. If you are interested in evaluating the GPExpert Scripting Toolkit, check out our Products page for more info!

Well, I've created a new PowerShell cmdlet to go along with my get-SDMgpo cmdlet. Its called new-SDMgpo, and its purpose in life is to let you use PowerShell to create new GPOs. As with the previous cmdlet I created, it requires GPMC to be installed where it runs since it leverages the GPMC APIs. You can get more info and download it from the Powershell page at our GPOGUY.COM site.
