Change windows domain administrator password

Asked by prospatho in Windows 2003 Server

We have a project requirement to change the administrator password for our domain. This account is used for administrative access to all company internal systems. It is also used as a log-in for services on many of the companys systems.
I have searched the EE knowlegdebase for this subject but can only find answers that relate mainly to password loss / retrieval / reset.
We need to systematically identify systems that use the administrator account for administrative login, and services that use it for 'service account login'.
Can you point me to comprehensive documentation that will help identify systems and services, and implement a process of change that will avoid disruption to these systems ans services.

Many thanks.Start Free Trial
