USGS SysAdmin Tools (USAT) v2.3.3

Version 2.3.3 of USAT, the USGS SysAdmin Tools PowerShell module, has been released to the Stable channel! Updates include:

  1. New Export-LapsPasswords tool for producing a CSV file of usgs_laps passwords for all Windows machines in Active Directory
    New Remove-UserFromComputer tool for removing a local account and its profile from computer(s) – e.g., for local admin accounts in use prior to the switch to usgs_laps
  2. New Remove-UserProfile tool for removing a profile from computer(s)
  3. Remove-UsgsComputer now prompts for a Serial # if the system to be removed is a Mac and requests removal from Jamf via an email to the Service Desk
  4. Updated tests for computer response to include confirmation that the responding computer is the intended one
  5. Updated Remove-UsgsComputer to use SSL when sending email
  6. Changed prompt for new user setup to an instructional message so it’s less disruptive to automation
  7. Fixed an error that often occurred during USAT installs on “fresh” builds
  8. Added warnings when deprecated names or aliases are used
  9. Re-signed code with a non-expired code-signing certificate

The USAT module should self-update on PowerShell startup within the next three days; note that you need to either restart PowerShell after that or run this command before changes take effect: Import-Module ‘USGSSysAdminTools’ -Force
