Historic Blog. No longer active. A script repository that stopped at Powershell 4.0 is at www.rmfdevelopment.com/PowerShell_Scripts . My historic blog (no longer active) on Network Security ( http://thinking-about-network-security.blogspot.com ) is also Powershell heavy. AS of 2/27/2014 all Scripts are PS 4.0.
