hustedj,
I doubt you can do that with just a .reg file.
But you can definitely do that with .bat file (or any script you prefer). With batch file use console user manager (cusrmgr.exe from
Resource Kit).
A command like:
cusrmgr.exe -u administrator -m \\<machine_name> -P new_pass
will do the job for you.
Take a look at this article: http://www.winitpro.com/Windows/Article/ArticleID/24210/24210.html
Please be aware of the security hole you may open if you have the admin password in a plain text file.
