Populate Checkedlistbox with Servers - powershell

Question

I am trying to populate a list with the servers in my domain, and i have partial success. There are 5 items in my list, which is as many servers as i have.
Unfortunately they are all just called [Collection]
Form is generated with Sapien Powershell Studio
$strCategory = "computer"
$strOperatingSystem = "Windows*Server*"
$objDomain = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry
$objSearcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$objSearcher.SearchRoot = $objDomain
$objSearcher.Filter = ("OperatingSystem=$strOperatingSystem")
$colProplist = "name"
foreach ($i in $colPropList) { $objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add($i) }
$colResults = $objSearcher.FindAll()
foreach ($objResult in $colResults)
{
$objComputer = $objResult.Properties;
$objComputer.name
$checkedlistbox1.Items.add($objComputer.name)
}
What can I do to have the proper name show up in the checkedlist.
Thanks for any assistance :)

Answer 1

The result object from DirectorySearcher.FindAll() method contains a special property named Properties that returns a typed collection containing the values of properties of the object found in the AD.
This means that you can simply do
. . .
$colResults = $objSearcher.FindAll()
foreach ($objResult in $colResults) {
$checkedlistbox1.Items.add($objResult.Properties['name'][0])
}

I suggest you use Get-ADComputer instead to get the list of your servers.
The you just loop thrue the list and add the servername to your checkedlist
$Servers= Get-ADComputer -Filter {OperatingSystem -Like 'Windows *Server*'} #-Property * #the property flag is not needed if you just want the Name (see comment from Theo)
foreach ($srv in $Servers) {
#Unmark to debug
#$srv.Name
#$srv.OperatingSystem
$checkedlistbox1.Items.add($srv.Name)
}
