If you still want to set it via GPO...
set "allow logon locally" to Administrators , domain\domain users
This will ensure that, local accounts doesn't get right to logon, unless they are member of "Administrators" group

Sergio,
That is the approach we are going to take. Write a script to run at
start up to delete all local accounts, except administrator, which
only we should know the password for.
Do you have any ideas on how to change local account passwords via GPO
or remotely? We would like to change the administrator passwords
initially, and probably like to change it on a continual basis.
Thank you.
Joe
