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
