Thanks for the link. Does this script have a readme so I can read a little
about its use before running it?

Hello Saucer,

From another posting:

go to the following website:
http://www.jadonex.com/comingsoon/

download the scripts and use the svclist script which allows you to find
where an account is used

I have a AD account which I am using to run services on many servers
around
the domain. The account is used in so many places that I don't even know.
The situation gas occurred where I need to change the password for this
account in AD and then go around all the servers and change it in there
too. How can I generate a report that will contain servers which have the
account in question used on there to run the service and is there a script
way to push out the password cangue as opposite having to login in each
server ad retype the password and restart the service.



Best regards

We need to change the domain administrator password. Can anyone
provide some advice on the best way to do this? We have a 2003 AD
domain with 2 DCs and 4 member servers. I know there are some
services that are logging on with the domain password that I need to
track down.
