Captain Phatty Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 I am looking for something, a utility I am guessing, that will allow me to change the local admin password network wide at once. I have domain admin rights, and I have changed the password there. I just hate having to remember all these passwords, now we have 3 local admin passwords, and I would like to reset all of them without going to each machine, or having to set them one by one through Active Directory.

codezero Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 You can always use remote management right clicking in My Computer and clicking Manage, and connecting to the remote computer from yours. I know that there can be a way where you can use a script to do all of that automaticaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red8Rain Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 wouldn't a string in a login script do the trick? I think that's much easier and no 3rd party apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Phatty Posted July 4, 2003 Author Share Posted July 4, 2003 Yes, a string in a login script would work just fine, anyone know the commands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sysyphus Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Captain Phatty, This may help for the command line: C:\>net user /? The syntax of this command is: NET USER [username [password | *] [options]] [/DOMAIN] username {password | *} /ADD [options] [/DOMAIN] username [/DELETE] [/DOMAIN] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pizza Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 wouldn't a string in a login script do the trick? I think that's much easier and no 3rd party apps. Hold on a sec...Remember that a logon script is run AS the user who is currently logged on. In a large enterprise, you can't assume that normal domain users have local admin rights... which would mean that the 'net user...' command would not work in a logon script...
