Proper Syntex to change public folder permissions recursive using powershell.

It took me enough google searches to figure this out that I decided to post it here.  The issues seemed to be around the 'space' in the folder name.

Change directories to \Program Files\Exchange Server\Scripts

To add a user to a public folder and all subfolders in powershell use-
\AddUsersToPFRecursive.ps1 -Server "ExchangeServer" -TopPublicFolder "\Sales Folder" -User "JSmith" -Permissions
 PublishingEditor

You can also do this if you want to add them to ALL public folders.
\AddUsersToPFRecursive.ps1 -Server "ExchangeServer" -TopPublicFolder "\" -User "JSmith" -Permissions
 PublishingEditor

To REPLACE their permissions (say they have read access but you want them to have publishing editor), do this-
.\ReplaceUserPermissionOnPFRecursive.ps1 -Server "ExchangeServer" -TopPublicFolder "'\Sales Folder'" -User "JSmith" -Permissions PublishingEditor

Note- the folder is in both quote (") and with a tick (') around it.  It doesn't work with just quotes.

Removing duplicate lines in Notepad++

Often times I cut / paste between systems and end up with duplicate lines in Notepad++.  Googling finds a lot of solutions that don't work.  Here's all you need to do-

Hit <Ctrl> <H> to get to the replace box (or go to the Search menu and click Replace.)
In "Find What", put \r\n\r\n
In "Replace", put \r\n
Under Search Mode, check "Extended".
Click "Replace All".

You can't get into Cisco ASDM and get "Unable to launch the application" from Java.  Here are ALL possible ways to resolve this-

1) Make sure you are on the latest ASDM (7.x).  You don't need to upgrade the OS to run the latest ASDM.

2)  Go to control panel, java, click on the security tab, click edit site list, and add the URL to your Firewall.  Make sure you include "https://"

3)  If that doesn't resolve it, make sure 3des is enabled in "show version" on the ASA.

4)  If it is, issue these commands-
ssl server-version any
ssl client-version any
ssl encryption rc4-md5 rc4-sha1 aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 3des-sha1
ssl certificate-authentication fca-timeout 2

5)  If that doesn't work, issue these.  Use your own username and password.
aaa authentication http console LOCAL
username cisco password cisco
