function Test-IsValidDN { <# .SYNOPSIS Validates if the input string is a valid distinguished name (DN). .DESCRIPTION This cmdlet checks if the provided input string adheres to the structure of a valid distinguished name in Active Directory. It is designed as a diagnostic tool to facilitate input validation for scripts and functions that manipulate Active Directory objects. .PARAMETER ObjectDN The distinguished name to validate. This parameter accepts a string representing the DN of an Active Directory object. .EXAMPLE Test-IsValidDN -ObjectDN 'CN=Darth Vader,OU=Users,DC=EguibarIT,DC=local' Returns $true if the input string is a valid DN, $false otherwise. .NOTES https://pscustomobject.github.io/powershell/howto/identity%20management/PowerShell-Check-If-String-Is-A-DN/ Version: 1.1 DateModified: 09/Feb/2024 LasModifiedBy: Vicente Rodriguez Eguibar vicente@eguibar.com Eguibar Information Technology S.L. http://www.eguibarit.com #> [CmdletBinding(ConfirmImpact = 'Low', SupportsShouldProcess = $false)] [OutputType([bool])] param ( [Parameter(Mandatory = $true, ValueFromPipeline = $true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName = $true, ValueFromRemainingArguments = $false, HelpMessage = 'String to ve validated as DistinguishedName', Position = 0)] [ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()] [Alias('DN', 'DistinguishedName')] [string] $ObjectDN ) Begin { Write-Verbose -Message '|=> ************************************************************************ <=|' Write-Verbose -Message (Get-Date).ToShortDateString() Write-Verbose -Message (' Starting: {0}' -f $MyInvocation.Mycommand) Write-Verbose -Message ('Parameters used by the function... {0}' -f (Get-FunctionDisplay $PsBoundParameters -Verbose:$False)) $isValid = $false # Define DN Regex #[regex]$distinguishedNameRegex = '^(?:(?<cn>CN=(?<name>(?:[^,]|\,)*)),)?(?:(?<path>(?:(?:CN|OU)=(?:[^,]|\,)+,?)+),)?(?<domain>(?:DC=(?:[^,]|\,)+,?)+)$' [regex]$distinguishedNameRegex = '^(?:(?<cn>CN=(?<name>(?:[^,]+|\,)+)),)?(?:(?<ou>OU=(?:[^,]+|\,)+,?)*)(?<dc>DC=(?:[^,]+|\,)+)(?:,DC=(?:[^,]+|\,)+)*$' Write-Verbose 'Begin block: Regex pattern for DN validation initialized.' } #end Begin Process { Try { # Perform the actual validation #$isValid = $ObjectDN -match $distinguishedNameRegex $isValid = $distinguishedNameRegex.IsMatch($ObjectDN) # Provide verbose output if ($PSCmdlet.MyInvocation.BoundParameters['Verbose']) { Write-Verbose -Message ('DistinguishedName validation result: {0}' -f $isValid) } #end If } catch { # Handle exceptions gracefully Get-CurrentErrorToDisplay -CurrentError $error[0] } #end Try-Catch } #end Process end { Write-Verbose -Message "Function $($MyInvocation.InvocationName) finished checking DistinguishedName."
