Here is information about my books and training projects. I appreciate your support when purchasing copies. It helps pay the mortgage and allows me to continue what I’m doing. I always appreciate user reviews on appropriate sites like Amazon, as well as word of mouth recommendations. If I’m speaking at a conference or user group meeting, I’m more than happy to sign whatever you put in front of me.

Books

Here are most of my books. The titles from SAPIEN Press should also be available as ebooks from ScriptingOutpost.com. The links are to SAPIEN Press because some of the books have collateral material which you have to get from them. Otherwise most people buy print copies from Amazon.

WSH and VBScript Core: TFM (SAPIEN Press 2007).
A complete reference guide to VBScript for IT Pros packed with real world examples.

Windows PowerShell 2.0: TFM (with Don Jones, SAPIEN Press 2010)
A complete reference for Windows PowerShell 2.0 written for IT Professionals. Technically this is the 3rd edition of the original PowerShell TFM book.

Managing Active Directory with Windows PowerShell: TFM 2nd Ed. (SAPIEN Press 2011)
This second edition of my book shows how to manage Active Directory using the Microsoft Active Directory provider and cmdlets or the free Active Directory cmdlets from Quest Software. Some material from the first edition, such as using ADSI, has been moved to appendices.

Training Material

I’ve been fortunate enough to work with the great people at TrainSignal to produce a few training videos. I hope to do more with them in the future.

Windows PowerShell Fundamentals
This is a “crash course” on PowerShell fundamentals. The course is aimed at IT Pros with the intent of getting them up to speed as fast as possible to manage their environment with an interactive PowerShell prompt.

Windows Server 2008 PowerShell Training
This course is designed to teach IT Pros how to handle every day system management tasks, using Windows PowerShell.

I hope you find me efforts worth your time and money. Thank you.
