Powershell - Set Passwort depend on group membership or AD - Attributes

hi,

i like to check some attributes in AD and depend on the result, i like
to RESET the password or not

1. AD Attribute CannotChangePassword = false then PW-RESET
2. User member of GROUP "ADG" = false then PW-RESET
3.User has in CSV column action "AdAccount" = true then PW-RESET

Here only the part of the script:

 
{$_.Version -eq "MSXC2010" -and $_.aktion -eq "New"} {}  # from CSV
  
$PW = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid -properties * ) | Select-Object CannotChangePassword
If ($PW -like "false") {  

$GROUP = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid  -Properties *).MemberOf -split (",")
If ($group -like "false") {  

$NewPassword = $user.userid.Insert(5,"$")
$NewPassword = $newPassword.Insert(3,"C")
$NewPassword = $newPassword.Remove(0, 1)
$newPassword = $newPassword.Insert(0,"Z")        
Set-ADAccountPassword -Identity $user.userid -Reset -NewPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText $newPassword -Force) 
                           
                                                          
} else {
                               
{$_.Version -eq "MSXC2010" -and $_.action -eq "AdAccount"} {
                              
$NewPassword = $user.UserId.Insert(5,"!")
$NewPassword = $newPassword.Insert(3,"k")
$NewPassword = $newPassword.Remove(0, 1)
$newPassword = $newPassword.Insert(0,"P")        
Set-ADAccountPassword -Identity $user.UserId -Reset -NewPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText $newPassword -Force)

You can change lines 4-5 like below.

$PW = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid -properties * ).CannotChangePassword
If ($PW -eq "$false") {

You can change lines 7-8 like below.

$GROUP = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid -Properties *).MemberOf | % { ($_ -split ",")[0] } | Where { $_ -eq "CN=ADG" }
If (!($GROUP)) {

You already have the portion for #3.

Hi footech, hi ,

thank you for your answer. I recreate the script as you can see below. Unfortunately
i can move to Group or not or set AD "CannotChangePassword" the password
will be reset.

What i exactly want is:

1. If for one or more of the User the Attribute "CannotChangePassword" are set (true)
No PW-RESET ! All other User PW-RESET !

2. If one or more of the User are Member of the Group "ADG" - No PW-RESET
all other user PW-RESET

We come into the script with all user because all user always in the CSV has the value "MSCX2010"

Then we ask
If 1 and 2 are true - NO PW RESET
If only one True - NO PW RESET
If all false - PW-RESET

In the 2nd Part we asked only for the CSV value "ADAccount" in action if this true = PW-RESET
Never has a user with "ADACCOUNT" a MailboxAccount or is group member or has
set the Passwort Attribute "CannotChangePassword"

 
{$_.Version -eq "MSXC2010" -and $_.aktion -eq "New"} { 
                                $PW = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid -properties * ).CannotChangePassword
                                If ($PW -eq "$true") {
                                $GROUP = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.userid -Properties *).MemberOf | % { ($_ -split ",")[0] } | Where { $_ -eq "CN=ASG" }
                                 If (!($GROUP)) {

The 2nd and really last thing i've forgot is to check before if the user has a only web-based

MailAccount. In this case the user are only in databases includes the Word "WEB".

So first we check DATABASE = "WEB" then should move this user to other database

If the User department = "EMC" then move to database DBEMC001 until DBEMC0045

If the department not EMC but database WEB then move to DB0020 until DB0040

All other user passed this part and enable/disable Mailbox and so on

I tried it with this one below but without success

Import-Module ActiveDirectory 
ForEach ($User in  Import-Csv "c:\import1.csv"){ #$user}
      switch($user){
            {$_.Version -eq "MSXC2010" -and $_.aktion -eq "new"} {

            
                 
                  $DBuser = (Get-ADUser -identity $user.UserID).department
                  If ($DBuser -like "*EMC*") {
                        $db = "DBEMC00$("{0:00}" -f (1..43 | Get-random))"
                    
                    $WEBuser = (Get-Mailbox -Identity $user.userid | Select-Object Database)
                    If ($Webuser -like "*WEB*") {
                    move-mailbox -Identity $user.user.id -TargetDatabase $DB -BadItemLimit 15 -PreserveMailboxSizeLimit:$true -Confirm: $false
                    }
                    else { 
                    move-mailbox -Identity $user.user.id -TargetDatabase DB0040 -BadItemLimit 15 -PreserveMailboxSizeLimit:$true -Confirm: $false
                    }
                    else { 
                    Enable-Mailbox -Identity $user.UserId -Database $db
                    }
                    else { 
                        Enable-Mailbox -Identity $user.UserId

thank you! i moved the other question to new one.

I checked your code and the first part running fine. But if ya like only AdAccount (Password reset in the 2nd part nothing happens.

I create this behind and everything working fine now. What you think about?

       {$_.Version -eq "MSXC2010" -and $_.aktion -eq "AdAccount"}  {

                                $NewPassword = $newPassword.Insert(3,"L")
                                $NewPassword = $newPassword.Remove(0, 1)
                                $newPassword = $newPassword.Insert(0,"z")

Looking at some of the other code you've posted, it looks like you may be using a switch statement to check for some of the different conditions instead If statements, which is what I used. In that case the syntax of the code you posted makes sense.
