Inactive Users Tracker - PowerShell Cmdlet

Inactive Users Tracker PowerShell cmdlet provides an easy way to automate the management of inactive user accounts. The cmdlet returns all user accounts that match inactivity criteria - not logged on for more than specified number of days.

Sample use:
get-NCInactiveUsers -domain example.com -days 15
# The line above returns all users from example.com domain inactive for 15 days and more.

This cmdlet is very useful for implementing automated provisioning workflows and reporting. For example, you can build a list of inactive users and programmatically disable some of these users. To detect inactivity, the cmdlet checks "lastLogon" attribute for every user account in a specified domain. AD doesn't replicate this attribute; as a result, the lastLogon value will be different on each DC. The cmdlet handles this correctly: It queries all DCs in the domain and uses the most recent logon time, also called the "true last logon".
