Is there anyway to either change the default label settings in Outlook,
propogate them through the Exchange server, or lock the settings on the
mailbox? Essentially, we're trying to achieve uniform label settings across
an intranet and any suggestions you have to effect that are appreciated.

You can apply labels with a script, but you can't lock them down unless you block the toolbar commands. See http://www.outlookcode.com/codedetail.aspx?id=823 for a code sample.

Okay, tried implementing the script but now I'm getting
E_ACCESSDENIED(80070005) after commented out the error skipping lines. I made
sure Server Scripting is enabled in Outlook, reinstalled it, and installed
SP2 all to no avail. I tried manually registering scrptxtn.dll and get error
entry point not found/does not appear to be a .DLL file.

Thoughts?

That error suggests that the user running the script doesn't have owner-level permission on the folder being modified.

Server scripting has nothing to do with this task; it's used for creating event scripts on Exchange, not for performing client operations.
