New Script: Update Active Directory DNS Reverse Lookup Zones from Sites and Services Subnets (Update-ReverseZonesFromSubnets.ps1)
While Active Directory (AD) does not need DNS Reverse Lookup Zones, most Citrix and VMware products do. If you are visiting my website, you probably use Citrix and VMware products. If you have heard or read any of my AD conference or CUGC presentations, you know how important AD Sites and Services Subnets and DNS Reverse Lookup Zones are to Citrix and VMware.
VMware vCenter Documentation Script Update Version 1.90
New Script: Backup VMware Virtual Distributed Switches V1.00
I wrote an article on how to Backup the vCenter Server Appliance using NFS and then needed to figure out how to restore the backup. In VMware’s article on restoring a vCenter server, I saw this:
“If you use a distributed virtual switch, you are advised to export
separately the distributed virtual switch configuration before you
restore to a backup. You can import the configuration after the restore. If you omit this consideration, you may lose the changes made to a distributed virtual switch after the backup.
New Script: Find Services Using a Domain Account on Specified Computers in Microsoft Active Directory (Get-ServiceAccounts V1.00)
One of the questions asked when I am either doing Active Directory (AD) remediation work or preparing a customer for an AD migration is “what domain accounts are used by what services and on what computers?”
That question is what this script is designed to answer.
New Script: Set-DNSScavengeServer
I do a lot of Active Directory Health Check and Remediation projects. Going all the way back to my first conference presentation, 95% of Active Directory (AD) issues trace their roots to DNS. One of the DNS culprits is not having DNS Aging and Scavenging configured correctly. This new script will configure the DNS scavenging server for every Active Directory-integrated Forward and Reverse Lookup Zone.

New Script: Get-BrokerInvalidAccounts for Event ID Error 505 Citrix ConfigSync Service
There you are minding your own business when you (for once) look at the event logs on your delivery controllers. Much to your dismay, what do you see? Hundreds if not thousands of errors in the Application event log coming from the Citrix ConfigSync Service. What’s up with that? What’s going on?
New Script: Documenting Citrix Federated Authentication Services with Microsoft PowerShell V1.00
The Citrix Federated Authentication Service (FAS) is a privileged component designed to integrate with Active Directory Certificate Services. It dynamically issues certificates for users, allowing them to log on to an Active Directory environment as if they had a smart card.
I needed a way to document Citrix FAS for a project. I want to thank those in the Citrix Community who tested this script and provided feedback to improve the script and the report.
