Change local administrator password for all PCs in the domain

[Guest]

Hi there,

I have about 200 workstations in my Windows 2000 domain. The workstations
include Windows XP and 2k. How can I change all workstations local
administrator password without going to the system to change them one by one?
I don't want the startup script since the users won't restart their
computers.

Need help!

Thanks in advance!

Lisa

Try the "addusers" program in the resource kit. It will modify as well
as add the user configuration. For more info, see article:
