Good morning!

I was wondering if Microsoft had any software that globally reset all local
admin passwords on my domain. Can MOM accomplish this?

Thank you in advance for your help.

This is relatively easy to do with scripting. I have done this in the past
with a simple batch file. The only caveat is that all admin accounts need
to be the same for the script to find them all. Here is a link on scripting
it, but like I said, it is just as easily done with a batch file. SMS is
also a method that can be used. HTH.
