Ensure Hosts Entry
Ensures an entry in the hosts file on a server.
Script usage:
Ensure-HostsEntry( Host: <text>, IP: <text>, [Exists: <true/false>] );
This operation may be prefixed with Network::, although this is a built-in namespace and isn't really necessary.
Arguments:
| Name | Format | Script Usage | Usage Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| ☆ Host name | text | Host | This argument is required. |
| ☆ IP address | text | IP | This argument is required. |
| Exists | true/false | Exists |
Example:
# bind otter.localhost to local ip Ensure-HostsEntry otter.localhost (IP: 127.0.0.1); # override hdars.com to a local address Ensure-HostsEntry ( Host: hdars.com IP: 192.168.10.0);
