Since we use ghost to install users' computers, we've got a probleme with
WSUS that is not reporting all computers. I need to execute a script, only
one time, on all the computers of the domain, to change the AU SID. The
probleme is that we're not using Active Directory, and I dont want to use the
logon script. If you have a solution, it will be welcome.

Active Directory and logon scripts are the two tools you have
to execute scripts automatically. Your next best solution would
be to employ a team of dwarfs, one for each PC, to run your
script at the agreed time.

If the dwarfs are too busy then maybe psexec.exe from
www.sysinternals.com could be your answer. It would let
you run scripts from a central location but it's a lot more
involved than using the other methods.
 
I agree with Pegasus - if you're not using AD or logon scripts you've just
tossed out both of the best ways to accomplish this task.
