Force IE to default to your home page through out Network


First, for this to work I am assuming you have a Windows 2003/2000 network with Active Directory, and your client workstations are joined to the domain
Get on the domain controller, go to Administrative Tools, and Launch Active Directory Users and Computers.
Right click on the domain where you would like to create the policy.

A menu will popup – select properties. A dialog box will be displayed.

Click on the Tab that says “Group Policy”
Now Click on the Edit Button
A tree view of policies will be displayed.

Drill down to this key:
User Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Internet Explorer Maintenance -> URLS
Now, double click on Important URLS. You should see a dialog box that lets you change the default Help, Home, and Search pages of IE.



Make your change, and wait. I will take some time before the change replicates across the network – workstations will also need to be rebooted for the change to take effect

Powershell script to remote reboot servers

$RebootList = Get-Content RebootServers.txt foreach( $Rsrv in $RebootList ) { Write-host “Issuing remote reboot command to $Rsrv” # Command to force reboot the remote server (gwmi Win32_OperatingSystem -ComputerName $Rsrv).Win32Shutdown (6) } That’s all. You can replace the  (6)  with any of the following: 0 = Log off 1 = Shutdown 2 = Reboot 8 = Power off 4 = Forced log off 5 = Forced shutdown 6 = Forced reboot 12 = Forced power off *******************************************   Note: 1. Create a text file – in this case RebootServers.txt 2. Populate RebootServers.txt with the names of the servers you want to reboot. One server name per line. Make sure there are no blank lines after the last server name. 3. Save the RebootServers.txt file in the same directory as the PS1 script (like the one you created – RemoteShutDown.ps1) 4. Run the script to reboot servers.
