On a Windows 2008 server, how to remove an user from Admin group. Below command works on local machine, say A
net localgroup administrators "Domain\username" /deletewhat i require is a windows command, to do the same on another server B, from Server A,instead of logging into each server manually and running command.
I am not windows admin, so dont have access to win admin tools.
Answer
With PowerShell 2.0 and newer, you can use Invoke-Command against a remote computer:
$cmd = {.\cmd.exe /c net use localgroup Administrators "Domain\username" delete}
Invoke-Command -ComputerName serverB -ScriptBlock $cmd
Alternatively, you can download PsExec and use it to run the command on serverB:
psexec \\serverB -u adminUser net localgroup Administrators "Domain\username" /delete
adminUser should be a member of the Administrators group on serverB
You’ll be prompted for the password when you hit enter. You can specify -p P@$$w0rd! if you need it for scripting.
