Here's a script Harris that uses the Windows 2000 Resource Kit tool Cusrmgr.exe to change the Local Administrator Password. You can do more with this tool, but the script will only change the Local Administrator password. Once you compile the script as an EXE file, you can run it through SMS with Local Admin rights.
Love you all from Harris
