remote tool
Hi Experts,
I have a problem with a laptop in another country.
The local admin account is blocked and I don't want to hand over the domain admin pass to the user to install a remote tool.
Is there a way to use a remote desktop tool without installation ?

ok thats right.
But when I want to change change the local password the session will drop.
My logged in user has admin rights but no local admin rights.
How I can change settings for the local admin account via remote as user ?

hi afthab:
on the laptop we use WIN7.
We found another user who installed the machine but we don't know the password.
I have access to the domain controller and can do some commands from there.
Is there a way to reste the local password of the user ?

Form the "Computer Management" from the DC, you can connect to the laptop and accces to the local users-groups.
Did you try?
Did you try?
Did you tried the commands which i provided my post ? try those from client laptop..
or
Login to DC --> open dsa.msc
Search for particular laptop host name (If you know the OU, right click on that and "find" choose "computers" and in "Entire Directory")
Once you find the host, right click , manage and change the user which you want ..
or
From DC open computer management then right click and connect to type the remote laptop IP

I think what you are experiencing is the AUC prompt (saw in a recent question on EE).
Back to the issue, open a command window.
run:
runas /user:<adminuser@domain> cmd
this will open up another command windows with elevated rights. (Note, if the computer is off the domain, it will only grant rights elevation if the credentials for <adminuser@domain> are cached i.e. this username/password were used once to login into this system.
once you have the elevated command windows, you can use net user to reset the password or you can start the computer management interface: compmgmt.msc or use control userpasswords2
which also gives you an option to reset a password on a local account.

With net user, we found another account to login and make our changes.
