locked account users, powershell review
Hi Experts,
I did recently downloaded a powershell script from the script MS page, however the script it does not or I missing some parameters.
I am in powershell calling the script as they suggest in the link below, but it just comes right back to the powershell prompt. No error no nothing. I have a feeling something is not where it is supposed to be.
I did create the following folders as per indicated on the script
C:\PS\AccountLockout\Tools
C:\PS\AccountLockout\Logs
I did download the tools exactly as the link states, but can you please indicate where should I enter my domain controllers on the script? I have 10 DCs that need to enter on the code.
I did also setup the execution policy in powershell to unrestricted, and Remotesigned, with no luck
By the way, I also imported the AD powershell module
Any ideas where to update the domain controllers on the script to use my new 10 DCs and then run the script?

Good Morning Footech
How is the script going so far?
Have you had a chance to modify the script and add new updates?

Frankly that goes against what I believe the purpose of the PowerShell topic area should be. It should be for helping others with specific questions about PowerShell, understanding nuances, suggestions for optimization, assistance when stuck on how to code for a particular problem, etc.; and not for providing complete scripts for people (or as I like to call it, a "free scripting service"). I'll admit that that line is crossed from time to time, but I try to avoid it.
The Get-AccountLockout script relies on another, which relies on two others. It's a mess and I don't think I have want to devote all the time to clean it all up. If you want to attempt it yourself and get stuck at specific points, feel free to open new questions. Best of luck.
