Surfing all over the net, I found a very handy powershell cheat sheet that was put together by Ben Pearce. Anyways, here’s the download link (just click on the picture).

Tired of old point and click interface? Powershell is the new purple in computer world haha…Seriously!
So, here’s a little script that will add the Ip address you want to the existing firewall rule.
As you can see, it fairly simple, and there’s no need to explain it too much….
Function IP
{
param ($ipadress = $(Read-host "Enter IP address"))
$rule = "YOUR PREVIOUSLY CREATED RULE NAME"
Write-host "Adding address :" $ipadress -foregroundcolor "Red"
Start-sleep -s 5
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule name="$rule" new remoteip="$ipadress" action="allow"
}
IP
Only thing you have to do in the script is to enter your fireall rule name.
When you start the script, it will ask you to enter desired ip address, and press enter. After that, wait 5 seconds and thats it
Cheers!
Recently I’ve found myself in a situation where I had to periodically delete files older than 7 days. I could have done it manually, but being busy, I often forgot to do it. The script I’m about to show you is a bit modified than the original, but, the principle is the same. Here I’ve added a posibilty to manually enter the directory name. In your script, you can define it, so it is being run automatically, without your intervention.
Here’s the code :
Function GetOldFile
{
param ($Dir = $(Read-host "Unesi putanju do direktorija")),
($Days = $(Read-Host "Brišem fileove starije od koliko dana?"))
$TargetFolder = $Dir
if (Test-Path $TargetFolder)
{
Write-host "DIREKTORIJ JE :" $TargetFolder -foregroundcolor "Red"
#Write-Host `a `a `a `a `a - odkomentirati ako zelimo da pc speaker vristi
Write-Host "UPS, krivi folder! Stisni 'Ctrl + C' za prekid - imas 5 sekundi za prekid" -foregroundcolor "Yellow"
Start-sleep -s 5
$Now = Get-Date
$LastWrite = $Now.AddDays(-$days)
$Files = get-childitem $TargetFolder -include *.log -recurse |Where {$_.LastWriteTime -le "$LastWrite"}
foreach ($File in $Files)
{write-host "Brišem file $File" -foregroundcolor "Red"; Remove-Item $File | out-null}
}
Else
{Write-Host "Direktorij $TargetFolder ne postoji! Provjeri path!"}
}
GetOldFile
The questions in the script are in Croatian, but anyone with a little bit of programming experience will be able to change it, because the script is pretty straight forward. But, if you’re lazy as most of us are, here is the translated script
