A script used outside of (not as a part of) group policy is your main
option.
Since these local accounts are, well, machine local, you must visit each
machine, one way or another. The main issues with doing this with a script
are keeping it opaque on the wire, and, keeping track of where the change
was not successful.

know if there is way to set all of the PCs local ADMINISTRATION passwords to
the same password without having to "manage' each individual machine and set
the password. We need to change these passwords regularly and I am hoping
there is a group policy of some type that can help control these.
