Windows 7: Login multiple machines remotely

Hi guys



I have a classroom that we need to log in as a local admin (the exam software needs administrator privelidges to work correctly) and I was wondering if anyone could come up with a solution to save me having to go to each machine and log them in indevidually. Ideally I'd like to be able to do this all remotely.

what about vnc? i think i remember seeing that software on the computers when i was going to school. you would still have to log into every computer but you could do it all without having to leave your computer. vnc shows whatever is on the screen of the computer that it is connected to.

Sorry mate but that doesn't really help - The computer room is next door and I may as well just walk through and do it - It would just be easier to symaltaneosly log in 50 or so machines under one account. I'm fairly certain there's a way but I cannot for the life of me think of how ... anyone got any ideas / tools that can do something like that?

(We have installed UVNC on them all)

Hello,

Are the PC's on a domain? Is it in a school?

If it not on a domain then you could just remove the passwords from the machines and just have the one admin account so that they can login to the default account without requesting a password. Obviously there are massive security concerns about doing it this way and it is not advisable.....

Another option is to use TweakUI to configure automatic logins - Again its not advisable if the machines have any delicate information on them.
