Anyone out there using the SDM CMDLets? Running into an issue that I'm 
almost positive is firewall related. I'm scripting the creation of GPO 
links using the add-sdmgplink CMDLet and its works perfectly in our 
production environment. We have another domain that resides in an isolated 
DMZ. I'm trying to run the script in that domain and getting mixed 
results. On the machine that I'm running the script on, I can use the GPM 
console and it works fine (view/modify/create GPOs). But when I run the 
script I get this:

Add-SDMgplink : The specified domain either does not exist or could not be 
contacted. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007054B)

But if I use the get-sdmGPO, to view the properties of an existing GPO, it 
works fine. My initial thought was that it was trying to contact a DC that 
it couldn't reach. But the get-sdmGPO works, so I don't think that is 
accurate. My next thought was that I don't have write access to AD from 
that machine, but I can load the GPM console and create/modify GPOs. I 
even tried using Connect-QADService to home the connection to a specific 
domain controller with no luck. So I'm not really sure what's going on.

Any suggestions welcome. 

Thanks,
