— dkoch 2014/02/09 12:15 This script synchronizes the client descriptions from OPSI to the AD.

1. You will have to store a mysql.exe binary in the same directory as the script.
2. Replace >DATABASE-HOST< >DATABASEUSER< >PASSWORD< >DATABASE< (near mysql.exe) and >YOUR-DOMAIN-SUFFIX< (near ForEach) to fit for your setup
3. Make sure your MySQL server listens ( bind-address in my.cnf )
4. Execute this script as Domain-Administrator on an DC

This Script requires Powershell 3
