Does SAM credentials support the .\Administrator or localhost\Administrator shortcut?

Embarrassed to say I'm just hitting our first large number of non-domain servers and would rather have one credential for all rather then way too many computername\username.

Yeah, same here with localhost and/or local\account.

And with this powershell module I am all set:

Script Local User Management Module

Hrm? Details? What are you doing with SAM re: powershell and AD management?

Right now just adding/updating local monitoring accounts to non-domain servers with those powershell scripts.
Could do just about anything once you import the ActiveDirectory module - I've done strange things such as enumerate AD computer objects and insert the OS and Service Pack into IPAM custom properties. Anything is possible if you have enough time and your boss is out of the office.
