This code is largely derived from sources found online. As such, I didn't think it was unreasonable to compile it into a series of extracts to use in your own projects.

In here we have code to perform an off-line sync with sharepoint lists, to perform an HTTP request, to check whether tables exist, and drop them if they do, and to produce Base64 encoded SHA1 signed AES ecrypted (with multiple rounds) text.

Function names:

• ResyncWithSharepoint(URL)
• SyncTable(TableName) (Note this depends on the tables having a Sharepoint Link already established with the prefix sp)
• HttpOK(URL)
• Sleep(microseconds)
• ifTableExists(tableName, DatabaseFileName)

Copy all of these into a single directory, make sure you've got a recent version of Vagrant and Virtualbox installed, then just... vagrant up

Vagrant will start a "simple" Windows 2012r2 box, created (presumably) by the fine folks at OpenTable and then it runs the provisioning sequence:

• This will first run the ChocoBootstrap.cmd file to load Chocolatey onto the box (via InstallChocolatey.ps1)
• It then uses chocolatey to install BoxStarter using the InstallBoxStarter.bat script
• Lastly, it copies the BoxStarterOperations.txt file to %temp% and then executes it via RunBoxstarter.bat

This was all made a lot easier due to these blog posts

Using this script

Place this batch file and the text file into the same directory, edit the batch file to specify the key server and the text file to specify the names to encrypt.

If you hit an issue where an individual has multiple keys against their name, the script may well complain and ditch responses. In this case, uncomment the line in the batch file which says: REM %COMMAND% --recv-keys <KEY ID>

So it should say instead: %COMMAND% --recv-keys DECAFBAD
