Re: Reset Local Admin using AD Group Policy

Hello Jon,

If you have at least one Vista or 2008 machine in the domain and XP or higher, then you can use the new Group policy preferences. Also you have to install on all clients the Client Side extensions.

If you have that not you have ot use a script like this ones:

Hello,

We have 1000 workstations and we need to reset all local admin account
in every workstation. Is it possible to reset that account using AD
group policy so I don't need to reset the password individually?

Thanks.
