Does anyone know of a way to change all the local administrator password on 2000 work stations all at once.
Or will I have to go around to each machine and do it manually ?

You will have to essentially physically go to the computers and change them. Allthough as a domain admin you can use computer managment console to connect to each computer remotely and change the local user administrator password. There may be some kind of scripting to do this but I would imagine you would still neeed to set up the script with all the computer names. Which would take more time than using computer managment console.
