Question : Rollout a Local Admin password change over a 2000 domain with win XP clients.

I have a domain controller (b1) and Windows XP clients.
The clients can have one of two local admin passwords, however I would like to change that to just one.
Is there anyway I can rollout a change? (I can remotly shutdown a workstation)

Another way;

Go to http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/PsPasswd.html and get the pspasswd utility.

Then just run it this way;

Make a text file, lets call it 'file' and put in your machine names one by one into it. You can easily do it by exporting an AD query to a text file.

pspasswd @file Administrator

Run it with domain administrator privilege and you are done. Just create a batch file and keep it for future.

Batch File:

pspasswd @file Administrator %1

Save the above into 'change.bat' and invoke it as 'change.bat '

Cheers,
Rajesh
