PowerScripting Podcast
The PowerScripting Podcast is for people learning and using Windows PowerShell. In each episode we bring you interviews from the heart of the PowerShell community. We also bring you tips, tricks, one-liner's and gotchas that we discover, as well as those submitted by listeners. We talk about scripting in PowerShell and ways to make your job "a little easier." We have heard PowerShell described as "the future of Windows administration" so the time to start learning it is now! Your feedback is always welcome. Thanks for subscribing!

<13Stuwee> ## If DSC and Chef are simular and I haven't used either, why would I learn Chef over DSC at this point?
<0halr9000> ## tell us more about configuration management of some "non-traditional" nodes like the network and storage hardware that you mentioned earlier
<13Stuwee> ## Do you use PSH within Chef?
<13Stuwee> ## please igonre if already asked. Does it work with clients or just servers. Does it have a client install piece?
<13Stuwee> ## what about "what clients are supported", XP, Win7 Server 2003 etc...
<0organicit> ##As an enterprise why should I consider Chef over Puppet. Sorry if this has been addressed
<13Stuwee> ## what about cost?
<13Stuwee> ## if you have a run list and one thing fails, how is the admin notified that it failed, how easy is it to recover?
<13Stuwee> ## how many cookbooks exist today and how ofter do new ones get added/updated?
<13Stuwee> ## if the cookbooks are community created/driven, how is the quality of the cookbook verified? Does anyone validate the cookbook?
<13Stuwee> ## how long has Chef been "in the business". In other words can I trust it to be around for the long term in light of DSC?
<13Stuwee> ## does it maintain a "state" or is it primarly used for installation of software?
<13Stuwee> ## wait wait.... just kidding

Chatroom Buzz
RichP: ## Is MDT going to be migrated to PowerShell in the next release?
RichP: ## Will MDT be simplifying itself by using PowerShell workflows in the future?
lizaoreo: ## Is there a reason to integrate MDT and SCCM? What advantages/disadvantages might be involved?
TallPau1: Now WINPE supports PowerShell, will MDT's VBSCRIPT scripts be moved over to PowerShell at any time?
TallPau1: ##Is there anyway to configure the workbench with PowerShell?
lizaoreo: At work now we're using a MDT2010 deployment solution and are moving to SCCM2012, but the dude in charge is wanting to dump all the MDT stuff and start completely from scratch using nothing from SCCM2012, I'm trying to figure out if that makes sense, or if it's better to keep that MDT integration
RichP: ## Being able to package applications to deploy via MDT is another hole in Microsoft's strategy (Orca doesn't count); is Microsoft planning something to fill that gap?
AaronHoover: ## how do customers balance new v3 features and a solid v2 base with remoting? code to v2 lowest common denominator? or if v2 > v2 script, else v3 script
RichP: ## With the MDT Solution Accelerator being the 'deployment' solution, would it not be your team that releases the 'Format-Disk' cmdlets, etc?
TallPau1: ##will the PowerShell help for MDT be updated? not many examples

## favorite linux distros?
- Backtrack/ubuntu
## Scripting language/Programming language history
- Python
## how about how SET came to be? ### what did you develope for backtrack? Q: how simular do you see python and psh? ## this sounds like a n00b question probably, but has dave used python 3 or stuck with python 2.x? i've struggled with the ctypes he mentioned with 3.x. Q: do you use psh automation scripts to do system tests? ## would you say most networks are turtle shells? ## thoughts on Certified Ethical Hacker cert? ### great description on what the tool is and some backround on it but did you just say one day "hey i want to be able to do something like this automaticaly" or was it someone who wanted the tool? CISSP = if you didn't know how to secure a machine before the cert.. you still don't after.. ## best ways to sell security to decision makers? Opportunity cost? Disaster scenarios? ## how has dave used powershell in a test? i have not listened to his defcon talk. i can see where powershell can be handy since it's almost on every server. like wmi via powershell? Q: is a recorded session or powerpoint slides available for posting in the notes from his defcon session ## Have you looked at attacking winrm or did you play with remoting at all? ##By a weak SA password are describing a brute force attack on the SA, to the SMO? ## how often do new security tools come out? Or are there more updates to existing tools? Q: How often is he using psh for testing? ## Q what resouces has Dave used to learn more about powershell scripting and how to use it? ## how 'powerful' is PS compared to linux/bash? ## What did you not like in PowerShell when learning it? ## What would you do to secure powershell from people like you? ## He's mentioned execution restriction policy twice... what makes them so weak? but flash can't see through....walls
