If I put this in a logon script, would the user logon on need local admin permissions?

Hi All You could add the following line into a startup script - that would apply to every computer in the OU. net user accountname accountpassword /add This line will add that user to the local admin group net localgroup Administrators /add accountname Randy Barger wrote a nice script called changepwdservers.vbs that will then reset the password on all the local machines once the user is created so it does not end up being easily found in the script itself.
