Author Console User Manager (cusrmgr.exe) question

My question has to do with a little project I have at work in renaming the local Administrator account on 300 Windows NT 4.0 workstation systems. I'd like to be able to do this from the command line in a batch file and the only thing I can find that will do this is cusrmgr.exe. I know I can do this to each individual system through the GUI User Manager, but I'd rather not have to go that route if I don't have to.

For example:
The following .bat file line will rename the local administrator account on \\pc1 to
"pc1admin" (without the quotation marks) and change the password to "newpass" (without the quotation marks).

cusrmgr.exe -u Administrator -m \\pc1 -r pc1admin -P newpass

I know I'll need to know each computer name for the above to work and that's not a big deal

Has anyone used cusrmgr.exe from the Windows 2000 Resource kit in a similar fashion or know of a third party utility that can do this?

Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry to see that no one has used the console user manager utility before.

BTW - It works very well.
