New powershell script. Goes to user home directory on remote server and dumps the folder names to a file. Then, goes through each line in that file and queries AD to make sure the user still exists and outputs it to the console. Not finished yet. Previous admins weren’t keeping up with deleting the home diretories as users left the company. Now I have to be able to add the list of file servers with home directories. meh!

Clear-Host

Get-ChildItem -path \\server\path | select-object name | Out-File c:\usernames.txt

$sname = (Get-Content c:\usernames.txt) -replace ‘ {2,}’,'’

Foreach ($name in $sname)
{
$result = Get-QADUser -SamAccountName $name -ov outvar | Out-Null
if ($outvar -ne $null)
{}
else
{Write-Host $name}
}Edit
