Syntax highlighting

Updated the wordfile a little bit. This one includes all previous functions as well as the following:

1. PowerShell v4 cmdlets (the ones available when you open a new v4 session).
2. Exchange 2013 SP1 cmdlets
3. Lync 2013 cmdlets
4. Active Directory cmdlets

That adds up to 2834 cmdlets/functions that get syntax highlighting on top of the 137 aliases that are also in the file. The file also has variable highlighting, as well as operators and comp operators highlighting.

Formatting changes include the following:

1. code folding for (), so your long param() blocks can now be collapsed/expanded.
2. code folding for region/endregion. This mimics the behavior of ISE.

If you’d like to change the colors and/or fonts used for highlighting, go to View>Themes>Manage Themes, or Layout>Themes>Manage Themes (depending on your version of UltraEdit) as the styling in the wordfile is ignored starting with v20 of UltraEdit.

As with all other wordfiles, they are stored in “%appdata%\IDMComp\UltraEdit\Wordfiles\”, unless you change the path in Advanced>Configuration>Editor Display>Syntax Highlighting or Advanced>Settings>Editor Display>Syntax Highlighting (again, depending on your installed version of UltraEdit).

You can optionally set the “Highlight new file as:” to PowerShell, as I do (also shown above).

As soon as you place this wordfile in that folder, you should see PowerShell as an option under View>View as (Highlighting File Type)

Auto-complete

I’ve also created an auto complete file that contains the same cmdlet/function names as the syntax highlighting file. When enabled, you get tab completion of cmdlet and function names similar to the PowerShell console and ISE. Note, however, that in UltraEdit, you only get auto-complete of the cmdlet/function names, not their parameters.

You can save the file anywhere. Then, go to Advanced>Configuration>Editor>Word Wrap/Tab Settings (or Advanced>Settings>Editor>Word Wrap/Tab Settings) to specify the location within UltraEdit:

Then go to Auto-complete and check the box “Show auto-complete dialog automatically” and also enter a number in the box. 5 works for me.

Now, when typing a cmdlet/function that’s in the auto-complete file, you’ll get suggestions.

Up/down errors navigate through the list, and tab uses the highlighted suggestion.

Migrating a customer from OCS 2007 R2 to Lync 2013 recently, I came across an issue that needed some extra work before I could continue.

When I opened the OCS 2007 R2 management console, I noticed a server listed under “Earlier Server Versions”.

I verified that the server no longer existed in Active Directory or DNS. The customer confirmed that it was an OCS 2007 server that had long been removed from service. This server would likely cause issues with publishing a Lync 2013 topology since OCS 2007 isn’t supported in a Lync topology. This server needed to be removed. Unfortunately, there was also no other servers in the environment with the OCS 2007 (non R2) management tools installed. And the OCS 2007 R2 management tools can’t remove the server. This meant that the only way I could remove this server is via our friend ADSIEdit. If you’ve got this issue, follow along as I show you how to remove it. Remember, we’re deep into Active Directory internals here, so tread lightly. Read twice, delete once. And for God’s sake, have a backup of AD.

Depending on where the OCS Global Settings are in Active Directory dictates where to connect to in ADSIEdit. These settings can info can either be in the root domain System container, such as if the environment originally held LCS and/or OCS 2007 servers and the settings were never migrated, or the Configuration container, where they would be if they had been migrated, or if OCS 2007 R2 was installed in a greenfield deployment. If you’re Global Settings are in the System container, open ADSIEdit and select “Configuration” in the Select a well known Naming Context field.

If your Global Settings are in the System container, as was the case for this customer, Select the “Default naming context”.

Expand the domain, then expand CN=System, then expand CN=Microsoft, then expand CN=RTC Service. Inside that, expand CN=Pools. You should see the pools and servers listed. Highlight CN=Pools on the left. On the right side, right-click on the server you wish to remove, and choose Delete.

Once that’s done, close ADSIEdit. Once AD replicates, open the OCS 2007 R2 Management Console and check. The “Earlier server versions” branch should now be empty.

In a previous post, Exchange 2010 and Lync 2010 PowerShell syntax highlighting file for UltraEdit, I included the cmdlets for both Exchange 2010 and Lync 2010. In this new file, I’ve included Lync 2010, Lync 2013, Exchange 2010, Exchange 2013, and Active Directory cmdlets for highlighting. If you use UltraEdit, this wordfile may make life a little easier.

Download the file here: UltraEditPowerShellLyncExchangeAD.zip

In Exchange Management Shell and Lync Server Management Shell, you can target many cmdlets at specific domain controllers. This is crucial, especially in larger environments, if you need to make sure AD replication delays aren’t going to cause issues. An example is enabling a user for Lync using Enable-CsUser, then trying to use Set-CsUser or Grant-CsExternalAccessPolicy. The second will fail if it sends it to a different domain controller than the first, and replication hasn’t completed. So, the -DomainController switch can be used. Just send each command to the same DC, and even in rapid succession, you’ll succeed.

However, if you’re reusing your scripts or functions, especially in different environments, you have to find a valid DC in same AD site, put that into the script/function, and go. What a waste of time!

We can streamline the process with just a couple lines of code. First, we use Get-WMIObject to retrieve info on the local computer.

[object]$ComputerInfo = (Get-WMIobject -class "Win32_NTDomain" -namespace "root\CIMV2")

Next, we assign a variable, $ADSite, to the site name returned from the first line

[string]$ADSite = $ComputerInfo[1].ClientSiteName

Then we get a list of DCs in that same site

$DCsInSite = (Get-ADDomainController -Filter {Site -eq "$ADSite"})

And lastly, we randomly pick a DC from that list

[string]$QueryDC = ($DCsInSite | Get-Random).name

$QueryDC can now be used in your code, such as

Enable-CsUser [user] -RegistrarFQDN [fqdn] -SipAddressType [SIP address type] -DomainController $QueryDC

And that’s it. The only real requirement here is that the ActiveDirectory module be loaded, so that the Get-ADDomainController cmdlet works. This is easy:

Import-Module ActiveDirectory

In its entirety, here is the code:

Import-Module ActiveDirectory
[object]$ComputerInfo = (Get-WMIobject -class "Win32_NTDomain" -namespace "root\CIMV2") 
[string]$ADSite = $ComputerInfo[1].ClientSiteName
$DCsInSite = (Get-ADDomainController -Filter {Site -eq "$ADSite"}) 
[string]$QueryDC = ($DCsInSite | Get-Random).name

 

Description

While migrating some users during a Lync migration, I needed to disable users for Lync in one forest, and enable them in another. I ran into a problem where many users in the legacy forest had adminCount set to 1, and security inheritance disabled. The problem is that my account didn’t have rights to disable them in Lync, and I was getting an access denied error. This is common when the user is/was a member of a protected group. I won’t go into the background of adminCount, as it’s well documented.

I knew that as the migration progressed, we would identify more users where this was the case. So I wanted to find a better way of dealing with these. There are several ways of finding users with adminCount set using PowerShell, including

([adsisearcher]"(AdminCount=1)").findall()

and using the ActiveDirectory PowerShell module via

Get-ADuser -LDAPFilter "(admincount=1)" | Select-Object name

and we can look at groups, too, using

Get-ADgroup -LDAPFilter "(admincount=1)" | Select-Object name

Turns out that many of the users (1000+) were no longer members of protected groups, what’s often referred to as Orphaned AdminSD Objects. So we could clear adminCount and enable security inheritance. But doing this manually on 1000+ users isn’t something that any of us wanted to spend time doing.

We can clear adminCount with a one-liner:

Get-AdUser [user name] | Set-AdObject -clear adminCount

But that doesn’t take care of security inheritance, which is the real culprit in my issue. We can use dsacls:

$User = [ADSI] $_.Path
dsacls $User.distinguishedName /p:n

Unfortunately, this involves multiple steps in native PowerShell. So, a function was born.

Set-AdminUser takes input from either the $UserName parameter, or via the pipeline, and clears adminCount, then enables security inheritance. It can process a single user or multiple, such as with the output of Get-ADGroupMember.

Syntax

Set-AdminUser [[-UserName] ] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] []

Examples

Set-AdminUser [user name]

Get-AdGroupMember [group name] | Set-AdminUser

Code

Here is the function to copy. You can also download it in the download section below.

Donations

I’ve never been one to really solicit donations for my work. My offerings are created because *I* need to solve a problem, and once I do, it makes sense to offer the results of my work to the public. I mean, let’s face it: I can’t be the only one with that particular issue, right? Quite often, to my surprise, I’m asked why I don’t have a “donate” button so people can donate a few bucks. I’ve never really put much thought into it. But those inquiries are coming more often now, so I’m yielding to them. If you’d like to donate, you can send a few bucks via PayPal at https://www.paypal.me/PatRichard. Money collected from that will go to the costs of my website (hosting and domain names), as well as to my home lab.

Installation Notes:

If you haven’t installed Exchange Server yet, you can use the info at Quicker Exchange installs complete with service packs and rollups to save you some time.

Microsoft Update can’t detect rollups for Exchange 2010 servers that are members of a Database Availability Group (DAG). See the post Installing Exchange 2010 Rollups on DAG Servers for info, and a script, for installing update rollups.

Update Rollups should be applied to Internet facing Client Access Servers before being installed on non-Internet facing Client Access Servers.

If you’re installing the update rollup on Exchange servers that don’t have Internet access, see “Installing Exchange 2007 & 2010 rollups on servers that don’t have Internet access” for some additional steps.
