Powershell - How to use a config file (ini, conf,…) with a Powershell Script ? Is it possible ?

Is it possible to use a configuration file with a PowerShell script ?

for example, the configuration file:

#links
link1=http://www.google.com
link2=http://www.apple.com
link3=http://www.microsoft.com

and then call this information in the PS1 script:

start-process iexplore.exe $Link1

thanks in advance for your help!!

Your answers put me on the good track and I found this

then

After executing the code snippet, a variable ($h) will contain the values in a HashTable.

*To get an item from the table use the command $h.Get_Item("MySetting1").*

Move a Computer Object to an OU

I’m currently working on the configuration of HP Rapid Deployment Pack (RDP) and I had to create a task who will automatically move the Computer object in the good OU.

So I want to move a computer object to the good OU depending of the SERVERNAME

In my company we use the name convention MTL1ASTT01:

MTL is the city name

1 is the site number

A for application

STT custom info

01 number of the server

In our Active Directory we use:

DOMAIN.local > GLOBAL > %SITENAME% > SERVERS

So if want to get the SITENAME and the SITENUMBER from the SERVERNAME i would use the code below, it will select

echo. Getting Sitename from the Computer name ...

Set SITENAME=%COMPUTERNAME%:0,4%

echo. SITENAME is %SITENAME%

dsmove "CN=%COMPUTERNAME%,OU=COMPUTERS,DC=DOMAIN,DC=LOCAL" -newparent OU=Servers,OU=%SITENAME%,OU=GLOBAL,DC=DOMAIN,DC=LOCAL
