Enable NetBIOS in SharePoint

Enable NetBIOS in SharePoint
We need to enable NetBIOS for User Profile Service Application when Fully Qualified Domain Name is different than NetBIOS name.

To Enable NetBIOS follow the steps.

1) Delete the existing AD connections.
2) Enable the NetBIOS to true for your current user profile service application.
3) Create a new AD connection.

Using power shell we can enable the NetBIOS to import the NetBIOS domain users in to our SharePoint user profile.

By default this NetBIOS is set to disable false (0), using the PowerShell we are enabling to true (1).

Run the below PowerShell command to enable the NetBIOS.

Using the “Get-SPServiceApplication” we can bale to get all the SharePoint application services running in our farm.
Get-SPServiceApplication
Using “Get-SPServiceApplication –Identity GUID” is used to identify the user profile and get in the variable.
$up= Get-SPServiceApplication –Identity GUID
Enabling the NetBIOS using NetBiosDomainNamesEnabled property is setting to true (1)
$up.NetBiosDomainNamesEnabled = “1”
Update the changes.
$up.update()

We can also verify again NetBIOS is enabled or not

Using $up.NetBiosDomainNamesEnabled if it display True NetBIOS is in enabled mode only.


how to get list of site collection and sites last modified date in sharepoint using powershell

how to get list of site collection and sites last modified date in sharepoint using powershell
We having a requirement to know the last modified date for a web application, for the web application having so many site collection and sub sites under the web application doing it manually it will take lot of time, so we prepared a script to know the last modified date under the web application having the list of site collection and its sub sites with URL, Title and site last modified date.

Get-SPWebApplication – Is used to identify the web application URL.
Get-SPSite  – Is used to get the  site collections.
Get-SPWeb – Is used to get the sub sites.

Run the below Power Shell to get all sites last modified information form a particular web application command.

List of sites under Web Application last modified date.

Get-SPWebApplication http://dotnetsharepoint/ | Get-SPSite -limit all | Get-SPWeb -limit all | select url,Lastitemmodifieddate | sort-Object -Property LastItemModifiedDate  > lastmodifiedinformation.txt

Once the script completed, we can verify the list on sites information  in the text file.

In the same way if we want to get the last modified date only for a particular site collection and its sub sites run the below script.

List of sites under Site Collection last modified date.

Get-SPSite http://dotnetsharepoint/sites/SP/ | Get-SPWeb -limit all | select url,title,Lastitemmodifieddate | sort-Object -Property LastItemModifiedDate  > lastmodifiedsitecollectioninfo.txt
