Some time ago, I wrote a batch file to reset the DSRM password on all DCs in a domain to some string, which is then executed every n days. The script uses setpwd to change the pw and works fine on w2k sp3 DCs.
I am now in the throws of testing a w2k and w2k3 mixed (DC) environment and looking for issues which may arise in such a mixed env. Setpwd appears to be one such issue since setpwd does not function from w2k to w2k3 DCs and the new ntdsutil option to 'reset DSRM password' does not function from w2k3 to w2k DCs.
Is there a newer version of setpwd which works cross platform?
Is the above a known issue? Must I use setpwd for w2k DCs and ntdsutil for w2k3 DCs?
Any further comments or feedback from those that have encountered this issue?
Thanks,
neil
