Issuse Changing Service Account password. Lion 10-26-2008

I have a AD account which I am using to run services on many servers around
the domain. The account is used in so many places that I don't even know.
The situation gas occurred where I need to change the password for this
account in AD and then go around all the servers and change it in there too.
How can I generate a report that will contain servers which have the account
in question used on there to run the service and is there a script way to
push out the password cangue as opposite having to login in each server ad
retype the password and restart the service.

Thank you,




Lion.

download the scripts and use the svclist script which allows you to find
where an account is used
