How to reset local admin user password in

Dear members,
i want to reset local admin account(not administrator built-in), let say i have user adminlocal and member in administrator group. my question, how to reset this user via GPO in domain, because i have more than 5000 workstation in my environment. and how to
generate summary of all workstation which are password reset.
i've tried from this link,
http://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/show/1966-how-to-change-local-user-or-admin-passwords-on-remote-computers
using PSTools sysinternal from microsoft, but while i execute one PC on domain for sample using this script, they showing access denied
anyone in this forum can help me to resolve this problem?.

Dear,
you can use Powershell to do this.
I've found a script in the script center which can do this.
http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/66a5b38f-cdf1-4126-aa0c-be65e16dd650/view/Discussions#content
Set-Password -computer 'server' -user 'Administratorlocal'
You can create a loop in powershell to check all your servers which you've posted in a .txt file for example.
$strcomputers = Get-Content c:\servers.txt
foreach ($strcomputer in $strcomputers)
$admin=[adsi]("WinNT://" + $strComputer + "/administratorlocal, user")
$admin.psbase.invoke("SetPassword", "Whatever1")

Clients local admin user is managed - how can it be unmanaged

Hi. I have a local user on all my client machines called admin with admin rights. Have had this same user with same password for many years for over 300 client machines from emacs to intel macs. With the 10.6.3-5 server update (major issues for the last6 months) with 10.6.2-5 intel imac clients, logging in as admin gives me a reduced dock. just finder and trash. Every use of any applications comes up with "you dont have permission to use the application "xyz". with 3 buttons Always Allow, Allow once and OK. entering admin and password always results in a second box with the same message. entering admin and password then allows me to use it. This behaviour does not happen on 10.5.8 clients and has never happened before.
In system preferences it says administrator, admin is managed. clicking the lock and authenticating allows me to access the tick for Enable parental controls. If I click on the tick to remove it, it comes up with the message. "You cannot enable parental controls for an adminstrator account. Create a new user account etc." It is unticked but the tick comes back on restarting the system preferences and even restarting the computer immediately.
I have tried deleting managed prefs etc but to no avail. I have tried removing the computer from the network account server and I get my dock back and can use applications but it still says I am a managed user. and I need the network account server for student logins. Any thoughts how to unmanaged local admin users on client machines to get back to the way it has been since 10.2.4 clients!!!

Did you try creating a new admin user, and then using that new account to make the Change to unmanage your "admin" account?
I don't think osx will let you create anaccount called admin these days, as security precaution. Perhaps that has something to do with your problem.

Stopping Derby Server...
Edited by: user8643895 on Jan 18, 2013 9:28 AM

Hi,
This issue was occurring because stopWebLogic.sh was picking the username and password from properties user config files in user's home directory: username-WebLogicConfig.properties, username-WebLogicKey.properties.
If the credentials for weblogic server are changed then new user config files should be created, if these are not created then stopWebLogic.sh will pick up the old credentials and hence fail.
Please refer the following document for information on user configuration files:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13813/reference.htm#WLSTC430
Connecting to the server after deleting username-WebLogicConfig.properties, username-WebLogicKey.properties resolves the issue as it forces the script to use the credentials provided by the user while running stopWebLogic.sh
There are two ways you can resolve this issue:
1) Create new user config files with the correct credentials as explained in the following document:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13813/reference.htm#WLSTC430
Or
2) To force the stopWeblogic.sh script to use credentials provided by the user while running the script follow these steps:
In the stopWeblogic.sh file use the following connect command:
connect(userConfigFile='',userKeyFile='', url='${ADMIN_URL}', adminServerName='${SERVER_NAME}')instead of:
connect(${userID} ${password} url='${ADMIN_URL}', adminServerName='${SERVER_NAME}')Hence in the stopWebLogic.sh script replace:
echo "import os" >"shutdown.py"
echo "if os.environ.has_key('wlsUserID'):" >>"shutdown.py"
echo " wlsUserID = os.environ['wlsUserID']" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "if os.environ.has_key('wlsPassword'):" >>"shutdown.py"
echo " wlsPassword = os.environ['wlsPassword']" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "connect(${userID} ${password} url='${ADMIN_URL}', adminServerName='${SERVER_NAME}')" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "shutdown('${SERVER_NAME}','Server')" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "exit()" >>"shutdown.py"with:
echo "import os" >"shutdown.py"
echo "if os.environ.has_key('wlsUserID'):" >>"shutdown.py"
echo " wlsUserID = os.environ['wlsUserID']" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "if os.environ.has_key('wlsPassword'):" >>"shutdown.py"
echo " wlsPassword = os.environ['wlsPassword']" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "connect(userConfigFile='',userKeyFile='', url='${ADMIN_URL}', adminServerName='${SERVER_NAME}')" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "shutdown('${SERVER_NAME}','Server')" >>"shutdown.py"
echo "exit()" >>"shutdown.py"

There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to fully boot. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
1. Boot from your recovery partition (10.7 or later), a local Time Machine backup volume (10.7.2 or later), or your installation disc (10.6.8 or earlier.) Launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in the support article linked below, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.”
How to back up and restore your files
2. If you have a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire ports, boot the non-working Mac in target disk mode by holding down the key combination command-T at the startup chime. Connect the two Macs with a FireWire cable. The internal drive of the machine running in target mode will mount as an external drive on the other machine. Copy the data to another drive.
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
3. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.

Importing Security Through shared services caused admin user password chang

Hi,
I exported shared services from shared services url from one environment and imported into another environment. This changed the admin user password where I imported.
Details:-
I went to shared services of one environment say dev and to -> Applications Groups -> Foundation -> shared services and exported it. Took its export and imported into test environment.
Now what it did it changed the user password of the target with the source one. However I did remove the internal ID of all files in it.
Can anyone please help ? How to get the password of it back? I do not have back up of shared services of test environment.
Version 11.1.2.1
Thanks a lot in advance!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was hoping you had a strategy in place, it is basically restoring the shared services relational database from a backup, stop the epm related services first.
It may be even possible to correct your LCM file and set the admin to the way it should be but I am not sure what state the provisioning is in so couldnt guarantee it would work.

TS3988 How do reset my iCloud user id. My new email changed on everything else, but won't change on iCloud.

How do reset my iCloud user id. My new email changed on everything else, but won't change on iCloud.

If you still have access to your old email address, do the following:
Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the pimary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was. You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account. You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so. You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

Can local admin users override mcx?

Can a local admin user override managed computer settings? ie, the "automatically hide dock" is set to hide in mcx, but a local admin wants to "always show".
Is this possible?
In another post, I found an interesting statement that might apply, but don't know where to do this:
(https://discussions.apple.com/message/5781831?searchText=Is%20there%20a%20way%20 for%20local%20users%20to%20override%20mcx%20settings#5781831)
"There's a Workgroup Manager Computer settings that allows admin users to turn off managed preferences. Be sure this is disabled."

Acrobat 9 pro and Admin user/password

Every time Acrobat 9 pro on my Mac (OSX 10.6.1) is launched it sakes for my admin user/password. If I enter the info in every time I launch Acrobat 9 pro admin it works, but the next time I login with my network user account Acrobat 9 pro want the admin user/password again. What might be causing Acrobat 9 pro to want admin user/password.

If, as it it says on top of the page, the question is "possibly answered", the "1 correct answer" is not shown. The mystery and annoyance remains.
Acrobat 9 Pro (installed as part of CS4 Design Standard by the same admin user that now wants to use it, OSX 6.7) asks for my password every time I start it: "Type your password to allow Adobe Acrobat Pro to make changes." The only necessary change that I see is upgrading back to version 8, which didn't suffer from this bug.
When I click cancel (twice – the window returns once.), I'm told that "Adobe Acrobat could not install correctly. An invalid password or user name was entered. Adobe Acrobat will now quit."
To repeat it, Acrobat is already installed, and I've entered the username-password combination several times correctly to use the software, but it's not acceptable to do that every time in all eternity. Please, Adobe, fix this quickly or give solution if one exists.

Did the email contain your name? Never click on a link in an email like that and do no enter any personal info after clicking in an email.
There have been quite a few people getting these emails. They are a phishing attempt to get your personal info.
