Just a real quick way to do whois lookups on domains, and IP addresses, in Powershell. Forward lookup uses Webservicex.net, and reverse uses Arin.net. function whois($site) { #Syntax: whois google.com $web = New-WebServiceProxy ‘http://www.webservicex.net/whois.asmx?WSDL’ $web.GetWhoIs("$($site)") } function rwhois($ip){ #syntax: whois 8.8.8.8 $baseURL = 'http://whois.arin.net/rest' $url = "$baseUrl/ip/$ip" $r = Invoke-RestMethod $url $r.net } Cheers!…

So as everyone already knows there was a huge leak of data for months for websites who use Cloudflare services. To make my changing of passwords a bit easier, and more focused / targeted I put together a little setup to check all of my Lastpass saved sites for Cloudflare name servers. First I exported my Lastpass information to a .txt format from their website export feature. Then I used a quick and dirty parsing -replace feature of powershell to clean…

Recently I ran into an issue where a Powered Off VM was stuck in a vMotion host migration for over 3 days. I assume that the VM was powered off during the migration, which is what caused it to hang. Afterwards two backup job snapshot tasks were also in queue on top of the migration task. I spent about 10-15 minutes in the GUI trying to find how to kill or stop this task, unsuccessfully. The only option I could…

Here is a function to fix windows unquoted service path enumeration vulnerabilities automatically with powershell! Cheers! function fix-servicepath { $hosts = get-content C:\Users\*****\Documents\WindowsPowershell\Servers.txt foreach ($box in $hosts) {     $services = $null     $services = get-wmiobject win32_service -computername $box     foreach ($service in $services){ $Displayname = $service.DisplayName        if (($service.PathName -like "* *") -and ($service.Pathname -notlike '"*"*') -and ($service.PathName -like '*.exe')) {         $box         $service.PathName         write-host "Changing Path to be quoted:"         $NewPath = $service.Pathname         $newservicepath…

Here is a custom script I made to check HP Onboard Administrators, Netapp Controllers, and vCenter servers for health issues in Powershell. Cheers! This relies on a few things first: VMWare PowerCLI 5.5+ Netapp DataOnTap 4.0 modules HP OA Powershell Cmdlets to function properly. If you want to capture VM Snapshot alarms you must create an alarm in your vCenters called “VMSnapshot Running” . I personally set mine to if the snapshot is 2GB or larger, trigger the alarm.…

So playing with Hyper-V the past few weeks quite a bit and noticed that when creating a vSwitch, no matter if External and bridged to a real NIC on the host or not, it will create a NIC on the Windows host machine correlating to the vSwitch in Hyper-v. If you create a virtual machine, and attach it to the vSwitch, and this virtual machine is running a DHCP server, your HOST NIC for that vSwitch will pull a DHCP…

Hey everyone! Just thought I’d post up a quick set of instructions to take a VMware formatted OVA file, extract out the .VMDK file and then convert it to a VHD or VHDX with Powershell. First, you will need the Microsoft Virtual Machine Converter package, and installed it. You can download it here: title Next, fire up powershell as administrator, and run this command to import the virtual machine converter powershell Cmdlets: Import-Module "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Virtual…

Just thought I would put this out here for anyone monitoring a large Vmware environment. Cheers! You would need to change $ss to a remote location you wish the report to be stored, our putting a local location would be fine as well, but then would have to local copies on C:, and wherever you specify. function vmware-provisioning { $viservers = "vcenter1", "vcenter2" $cred = get-credential $date = (Get-Date).tostring("yyyyMMdd") Add-PSSnapin Vmware.VIMAutomation.Core | Out-Null set-PowerCLIConfiguration -invalidCertificateAction…
