Best way to bulk update local user across multiple UTMs

dwebb
We're using the UTM Manager, but I don't see a way to do this from there.

What I'd like to do is to reset the 'admin' user and another local user's passwords across all of our UTM 9's. We've got at least a dozen in the field, and I'd like to make this procedure something that could be done in just a few minutes.

UPDATES:
With help from teched I've started working on a configuration script.

    I didn't follow the part about logs showing the name of the person making changes.


    I think he's talking about the fact that the changes made via this script will not be automatically tracked or logged, like how config changes are tracked in the WebAdmin console.

    Any my reply to that concern would be: This task is so low level (in a programming sense, not a difficulty sense) that it should require a change request and authorization before it is performed. Don't rely on the system to track a change like this - this kind of thing should be printed and signed with witnesses.

    For those interested, here's the current status of the script I'm working on.

    Thanks again, teched!

    I mean that I prefer to have administrators login with a username unique to them, not a generic login for multiple people.  That way, I can see in the logs who did what.

    Cheers - Bob
