You can use the "Danish Company Password Changer" (DCPC) across the LAN to reset any local accounts password on a remote machine. It's no longer available on the 'net, it used to be available from the author's company at danish-company.com <http://danish-company.com/> , but that server is 404. The license terms preclude offering it for download: This program has been released as freeware under the following conditions: 1. It is not to be distributed via the internet or via any other media without the prior approval of the author. ... and with the author's site being gone it's impossible to get permission, but I can email it to anyone who wants it.
