Packman0404 Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 Is there a way you could push this local account to 35 machines that all live on a domain, and also set the password to a scheme you have set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IcemanND Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Sure, you could put it in a CMD script and push it as a startup script via GPO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
