Powershell in autoit

[Queener]

I used ptrex example and thought it was interesting, but was wondering if we can actually write the powershell script inside autoit instead of having it to open a ps1 file?

See if someone can give an example to write this code inside autoit:

import-Module ActiveDirectory
$computer = read-host "Enter Computer Name"
[Threading.Thread]::Sleep(120)
$desc = read-Host "Enter New Description"
[Threading.Thread]::Sleep(120)
set-adcomputer $computer -Description $desc

Sure.

Use the "-Command" parameter to pass the command to be executed.

sorry for being so noobie here, but can you give me an example?

Haven't used ptrex's solution right now but I use the following command to creata an Exchange mailbox.

$sCMD = "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -command . " & _
            "'D:\Exchange Server\V14\bin\RemoteExchange.ps1'; Connect-ExchangeServer -auto; Enable-Mailbox -Identity " & _
            $Kurzzeichen & " -Alias " & $Kurzzeichen & " -Database " & $sEXDatabase & $sSMTPAddress

BTW: I just noticed that you try to automate Active Directory.

Much easier and faster is using my AD UDF (for download please see my signature).
