Searching entire AD for disabled accounts

$

Hello,

I'm new to Powershell.  Any assistance in discovering the error or my mistake in the script would be greatly appreciated.

I have a simple PS script that I intend to run and discover all disabled accounts in AD residing in various different OUs.

 

I run the script with 

powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -File script.ps1

Here is the entire script and the error generated is in the bottom of the script



$strfilter = "(&(objectClass=user)(objectCategory=person))"

$objDomain = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry

$objSearcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$objSearcher.SearchRoot = $objDomain
$objSearcher.PageSize = 1000
$objSearcher.Filter = $strFilter
$objSearcher.SearchScope = "Subtree"
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn") | Out-Null
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("member") | Out-Null
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("proxyAddresses") | Out-Null
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("displayName") | Out-Null
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("distinguishedname") | Out-Null
$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("useraccountcontrol") | Out-Null
$users = $objSearcher.FindAll() 
foreach ($user in $users) 
{ "Testing $($user.properties.item(""distinguishedname""))""UAC: $($user.useraccountcontrol)" 
if($user.useraccountcontrol -band 2)  
{ write-host -foregroundcolor red "`t account is disabled" }  
ELSE  
{ write-host -foregroundcolor green "`t account is not disabled" } 

}





PS C:\> powershell -ExecutePolicy ByPass -file .\gcnaccounts.ps1
