The Self-Service Password Reset Central Store Creation Tool is a PowerShell based application.  You can use this tool to create a secure central store for Self-Service Password Reset on Windows Server 2012 R2,  and Windows Server 2016. A central store created with the tool is the same as one created manually (for detailed information, see Create a Central Store). You can also use the tool to configure the firewall for the central store.

Note: As a prerequisite to using this tool, you must create a domain user as a Data Proxy Account. You will need to specify that account while running the tool. This tool supports the following parameters:

Create a domain user to be used as a Data Proxy Account.

Add the File and Storage Services role on the server.

Extract the content of the compressed file to a folder.

This tool creates a new folder and two subfolders, sets permissions on those folders, and change the following registry values: 

• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters  SMB1 0
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanManServer\Parameters EnableSecuritySignature  1
• HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanWorkstation\Parameters EnableSecuritySignature 1

This tool is a PowerShell script without installation and uninstallation processes.

1. Open a PowerShell Console session on the machine where you want to use the tool.
2. Run the scripts on the console.

Example

• To create a folder with the local path C:\Citrix as the central store, share the folder with the share name Citrix$, specify the data proxy account of the central store and the IP address of the Self-Service Password Reset server and configure the firewall:

.\CreateCentralStore.ps1 -FolderPath C:\Citrix -ShareName Citrix$ -Admin xd.local\DataProxyAccount - SSPRServerIP 192.168.0.1

• To specify only the data proxy account of the central store(using the default values for the central store folder path and the share name):

.\CreateCentralStore.ps1 -Admin xd.local\DataProxyAccount
