I am trying to get a working script to check for expiring SSL certificates in IIS. There are many similar entries with simply getting the list of expiring installed certificates but I need some extra logic. I need to know all certificates expiring within x days that are A) currently bound to a website and B) that website must have a state of "Started" I have certain information gathered (below) but I am having trouble correlating them so they only give me the expiring certs I need. To add to the complexity, I can't simply look for the site name in the CN in the subject of the certificates

I've been working on enabling JSON compression from one of our MVC3 sites. From various articles I've read it seems as though I should be able to set the application/json; charset=utf-8 MIME type in the applications web.config file. But doing so does not enable compression. But when added to the applicationhost.config file, it works. Am I missing something here? My application web.config has the following added to it: <httpCompression directory="%SystemDrive%\inetpub\temp\IIS Temporary Compressed Files"> <scheme name="gzip" dll="%Windir%\system32\inetsrv\gzip.dll" /> <dynamicTypes> <add

In order to install a new property page into the Active Directory SnapIn, I need to write into the following registry key of W2K8 R2 ( as documented by Microsoft ) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MMC\SnapIns{E355E538-1C2E-11D0-8C37-00C04FD8FE93}\NodeTypes This key is own by a special user called TrustedInstaller .

The user take ownership The user write the registry the user give ownership to

This issue seems to be widely discussed, but I have problems with finding the solution in my particular case. My service is set up to be running under Local System account. On my first machine with Windows 7 SP1 (64-bit) installed, everything works as expected. But, just after I try to start the service on my second machine with Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 (64-bit) , not even a second passes, and I'm facing this annoying error: Windows could not start the ProService service on Local Computer Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion The System

I'm trying to register a COM DLL file on Windows Server 2008 R2. Here are the steps I took: Run cmd as administrator c:\windows\system32\regsvr32.exe c:\tempdl\temp12.dll When I execute that command I get this error: The module temp12.dll failed to load. Make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debut it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files. The specified module could not be found. I was able to register the same DLL file on Windows 2000. I also tried c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32 "c:\tempdl\temp12.dll" And I got this error: the module c:\tempdl\temp12.dll

I am trying to write something up in powershell and completely new to powershell, I need help. What I'm trying to do is get information from the Security Log. Specifically, the last login for users over the last two weeks. The code that I have so far is getting login's for the event ID 4624 based on the last 100 events. This is also returning not just users but computers as well. How can I limit the results to just users over a period of two weeks? Is this even possible? $eventList = @() Get-EventLog "Security" -After $Date ` | Where -FilterScript {$_.EventID -eq 4624 -and $_

[My set up] RDP Client (Win7) ------------------RDP------------------------> Remote Server (Win2k8R2) with SmartCard I've found countless answers that would suggest this is not possible. Alot of answers indicate that RDP was designed this way for security. The smartcards are locked which do not allow the device to be seen when connecting remotely with Remote desktop connection (RDP). However I've found a useful link which appears to work for some but not all. http://lifayk.blogspot.co.uk/2012/07/windows-smart-card-subsystem-and-remote.html The guide shows how it's possible (by editing the
