Users redirectored folders show as My Documents in the folders
If you are redirecting folders to a server share and the folders all show as "My Documents" this could be due to the desktop.ini in the root of the users folder. If the administrators or domain admin group has full control, set them to deny read. Make sure the user is the owner of the folder as well.

Use PSEXEC to run a command against a list of machines and have it run a command from the machine
Start by creating a list of computers that need the command run on them (pclist.txt.). Use the file copy command for /f %a in (pclist.txt) do copy /y \\server\share\file.bat \\%a\c$\ to copy the files to the machines in the pclist.txt. In this example the file is copied to the root. Next, from an elevated command prompt run:
psexec @pclist.txt c:\file.bat
This will execute the batch or exe file you copied to the remote machine on the remote machine.
If you need to authenticate run:
psexec @pclist.txt -u domain\user c:\file.bat and it will prompt for a password.
psexec @pclist.txt c:\file.bat
This will execute the batch or exe file you copied to the remote machine on the remote machine.
If you need to authenticate run:
psexec @pclist.txt -u domain\user c:\file.bat and it will prompt for a password.
copy files to multiple remote computers
To copy a file to multiple computers first create a txt file with all the computer names in it. Place the file you want to copy in an accessible location for all the machines. Run the following command:
for /f %a in (pclist.txt) do copy /y \\server\share\file.txt \\%a\c$\
This "should" copy the file to the machines listed assuming you have remote access.
for /f %a in (pclist.txt) do copy /y \\server\share\file.txt \\%a\c$\
This "should" copy the file to the machines listed assuming you have remote access.

Exchange dynamic distribution groups based on security groups.
To create an exchange dynamic distribution group based on security group this can be done through powershell. The command specifies where to create the dynamic distribution group and what group the users will be a member of to pull the addresses from.
The group name is “Dyn_universal” the security group is dyn_test, so any user in the OU test that is a member of dyn_test will get mail sent to the distribution group.
New-DynamicDistributionGroup "Dyn_universal" -Alias "Dyn_universal" -OrganizationalUnit "OU=Test,DC=mydomain,DC=local" -RecipientFilter "MemberOfGroup -eq 'CN=dyn_test,OU=test,DC=mydomain,DC=local'"
