I need to give a different local Admin password for each workstation. I've got an MSExcel sheet with workstation names and associated passwords. Can someone can help me ?
Many thanks,
Xine

This ought to help you as far as changing the password goes. I've got a bit of a sample script somewhere that would give you some help with navigating around an Excel spreadsheet as well. I'll dig it out and post it in a little while

Changing local admin password on servers.

Found it! My first post in this thread contains a link to yet another example of how to do this.

Hope this helps

This scripted approach above will be fine unless you support operating systems of different languages. Localized versions of windows have different names for the Administrator's account.

Checkout http://mywebpages.comcast.net/habullock/SetAdminPW.html and my command line utility to rename the account and set the PW at http://mywebpages.comcast.net/habullock/Perlutilities.htm

See your old thread: http://www.kixtart.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=2&t=004113

Yes, this is indeed a time-delayed cross-post.
