Windows PowerShell Unleashed - Sams

PowerShell is one of the most exciting new products to come out of Microsoft in a long time. It is both a new scripting language and a command line shell. People who have seen the demos have been extremely impressed by the power it brings to admins to automate and customize their regular tasks. PowerShell will be used as the basis for all Windows administrative scripting in the future, starting with Exchange 2007 and Vista. IT Pros have been hungry for whatever information they can get their hands on about PowerShell.
This book will first focus on PowerShell basics, how it relates to existing Windows scripting practices, and how the reader's existing knowledge can be translated into PowerShell knowledge. Next, after gaining insight into PowerShell, the reader will be presented with transferable PowerShell scripting examples. The goal of presenting these examples will be to outline methods of using PowerShell to manage Windows Server, Active Directory, and Exchange Server 2007 that have not been explained or touched upon by other sources.
