.SYNOPSIS This function will remove a user from the "Remote Desktop Users" group from a remote machine. .DESCRIPTION This function will remove a user from the "Remote Desktop Users" group from a remote machine. .EXAMPLE PS C:\> Remove-RemoteDesktopUser -ComputerName mrpig -SamAccountName mrpig ComputerName SamAccountName UserRemoved ------------ -------------- ----------- pancake-3 mrpig True In this example the user account mrpig is removed from the "Remote Desktop Users" group on the computer mrpig. .EXAMPLE PS C:\>Get-sysLocalGroup -ComputerName pancake-3 -GroupName "Remote Desktop Users" -Protocol Dcom GroupName Member ComputerName --------- ------ ------------ Remote Desktop Users {mrpig, mrpig} pancake-3 PS C:\> Remove-RemoteDesktopUser -ComputerName pancake-3 -SamAccountName mrpig -Protocol Dcom ComputerName SamAccountName UserDomain UserRemoved ------------ -------------- ---------- ----------- pancake-3 mrpig CLEVELAND True Remove-RemoteDesktopUser -ComputerName pancake-3 -SamAccountName mrpig -Protocol Dcom -Domain pancake-3 ComputerName SamAccountName UserDomain UserRemoved ------------ -------------- ---------- ----------- pancake-3 mrpig pancake-3 True This example should show you full functionality of the command. The first command grabs the current users of the "Remote Desktop Users" group on pancake-3. We can see that there are 2 mrpig accounts in that group, we could expand the Member property to see one is domain mrpig account and the other is local mrpig account. The second command removes the domain mrpig account, it does this because the default value of the domain paramter is the current user's domain. The third command specifies the pancake-3 as the domain to target the pancake-3\mrpig account to remove. .INPUTS [String] .OUTPUTS [PSCustomObject] .NOTES Requires Admin. .LINK https://github.com/MrPig91/SysAdminTools/wiki/Remove%E2%80%90RemoteDesktopUser #> function Remove-RemoteDesktopUser{ [CmdletBinding()] param( [Parameter(Mandatory)] [string]$ComputerName, [Parameter(Mandatory)] [string]$SamAccountName, [string]$Domain = $ENV:USERDOMAIN, [ValidateSet("WsMan","Dcom")] [string]$Protocol ) try{ if (Test-Connection -ComputerName $ComputerName -Count 1 -Quiet){ $Options = New-CimSessionOption -Protocol Dcom $Sesssion = New-CimSession -ComputerName $ComputerName -OperationTimeoutSec 1 -SessionOption $options -ErrorAction Stop $Users = Get-sysLocalGroup -ComputerName $ComputerName -GroupName "Remote Desktop Users" -Protocol $Protocol $UserFound = $Users | where {$_.Member.Name -eq $SamAccountName -and $_.Member.Domain -eq $Domain} if ($UserFound){ $ErrorActionPreference = "Stop" [ADSI]$Account = "WinNT://$Domain/$SamAccountName,User" [ADSI]$Group = "WinNT://$ComputerName/Remote Desktop Users,Group" $Group.Remove($Account.Path) [PSCustomObject]@{ ComputerName = $ComputerName SamAccountName = $SamAccountName UserDomain = $Domain UserRemoved = $true } $ErrorActionPreference = "Continue" } else{ Write-Error -Message "$SamAccountName is not a member of the Remote Desktop Users group on $ComputerName.
