A. As you may be aware it is possible to change your password from the command line using the net user command, and if you combine this with the at command you can run the command on different machines, e.g. at \\ cmd /c net user Administrator anythingyouwant e.g. at \\savilljohn 18:00 cmd /c net user Administrator password The /c after cmd causes the command window to close after the command has been executed.
