Is it possible to set system variables from the command prompt on NT4 or W2K? If so, what is the proper syntax? I need to set two variables per machine(50 machines) and was hoping I could just telnet to them instead of walking around and logging into each.

Yes (at least in NT), just type

set variable=string

substituting your variable for "variable" and the value you want to have for "string".

Instead of doing it one by one, do you have a login script? You could add the set commands to your script.
