That's one of the great things about GPP.  It came with Server 2008 but with
the CSE's you just need a Vista/Win7 machine to manage them.  No need to
upgrade everything.

The 2003 servers don't have the latest updates for GPP installed would be my
bet.

Any reason this wouldn't work with 2003 servers? The don't seem to be
picking it up. W2K8 is no problemo.

 

I copied the GPO we use that works on XP/Win7 and modified it to point to
the added account and server OU only, no WMI filtering is on.

There certainly is (with GPP).  It can be used to create, update or delete
local users

 

Computer Configuration/Preferences/Control Panel Settings/Local Users and
Groups

 

Create a new Local User and fill in the details:-



 

This is a great GPP to do a domain wide change of the local Admin password
as well.  Very handy when you have an IT staff member resign who knows the
local admin password.

Is there a way to GPO a password change of added-in local machine accounts
if the account is the same across all systems? I can do it easily enough
with the BuiltIn ones, but see no GPO way to do added ones.
