    Hello Experts,

    I am looking for a script to change/reset DSRM password on all windows 2008 DC's with a common password. I have prepared the below script but not sure this will work or not. I do not have any test machine to check the below script. Please check and let me know if i have made any mistakes:

    #================Start of Script========================================#
    #--------------------- Input Information--------------------------------#
    $Servers = Get-content “.\DCList.txt"
    $DSRMPwd = "P@ssw0rd123"
    NTDSUTIL
    SET DSRM PASSWORD
     Foreach ($Server in $Servers){
     #--------------------- Update DC's DSRM Password-----------------------#
     RESET PASSWORD ON SERVER $Server -Password $DSRMPwd
     Write-Output "Password changed on Server: $Server "
     }
    Quit
    Exit NTDSUTIL
    #=====================End of Script=====================================#

    Thanks & Regards,

    Venkat

    Thanks & Regards, Venkat

    Hello,

    I'd ask in the Directory Services forum.

    Hello,

    The TechNet Sandbox forum is designed for users to try out the new forums functionality. Please be respectful of others, and do not expect replies to questions asked here.

    As it's off-topic here, I am moving the question to the Where is the forum for... forum.
