Thanks acbrown2010!<br />
<br />
Here is your suggestion in txt...<br />
<br />
import-csv .\sitedcs.csv | foreach {kerblist get ldap/???}<br />
<br />
My question is how I populate the ??? part which should hold the hostname which is derived from the CSV list? There are 3-8 of these values.

Greetings!<br />
<br />
I have a command I want to feed a variable from a txt file. The command is...<br />
<br />
kerblist get ldap/$variablename<br />
<br />
The textfile is named &nbsp;.\sitedcs.txt<br />
<br />
The txt file will have 3-8 entries which are hostnames for the local site DCs.<br />
<br />
I remember the FOR loop from the CMD shell days, but am sure there is a better way within native PS.<br />
<br />
TIA!<br />

Read txt file using powershell to feed a command

Windows PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on the .NET Framework. PowerShell provides full access to the Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), enabling administrators to perform administrative tasks on both local and remote Windows systems as well as WS-Management and Common Information Model (CIM) enabling management of remote Linux systems and network devices.

Powershell

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.

Microsoft Development

The Microsoft Legacy Operating System topic includes legacy versions of Microsoft operating systems prior to Windows 2000: All versions of MS-DOS and other versions developed for specific manufacturers and Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions, and Windows Mobile.
