Any reason this wouldn't work with 2003 servers? The don't seem to be picking 
it up. W2K8 is no problemo...

I copied the GPO we use that works on XP/Win7 and modified it to point to the 
added account and server OU only, no WMI filtering is on.

There certainly is (with GPP).  It can be used to create, update or delete 
local users

Computer Configuration/Preferences/Control Panel Settings/Local Users and Groups

Create a new Local User and fill in the details:-

This is a great GPP to do a domain wide change of the local Admin password as 
well.  Very handy when you have an IT staff member resign who knows the local 
admin password.

Is there a way to GPO a password change of added-in local machine accounts if 
the account is the same across all systems? I can do it easily enough with the 
BuiltIn ones, but see no GPO way to do added ones.
