How best to run this against all of the computers on the network in a batch execution?  psexec?

<div>
Is it possible to assign it as a StartUp script? That would probably be easiest.<br />
<br />
Otherwise, yeah, you can use PSExec to run it against a list of computers.<br />
<br />
Something like this should work:<br />
psexec @computers.txt -accepteula -u domain\admin -p password wscript.exe //B \\server\share\CreateAdmin<wbr />Account.vb<wbr />s<br />
<br />

VBScript (Visual Basic Scripting Edition) is an interpreted scripting language developed by Microsoft that is modeled on Visual Basic, but with some important differences. VBScript is commonly used for automating administrative and other tasks in Windows operating systems (by means of the Windows Script Host) and for server-side scripting in ASP web applications. It is also used for client-side scripting in Internet Explorer, specifically in intranet web applications.
