Does anyone know how to modify the default passwords and other setup options (such as restricting anonymous access) without having to browse for each machine, modifying the properties one system at a time?

I'm looking for anything that could be scripted for fixing it after the install, or tweaked during the agent installation, etc. Thanks in advance.
 
The following procedure is for administrators wanting to use software distribution tools to distribute Web Agent settings from one server to multiple servers on the network. This makes it possible to quickly update all servers on the network automatically without having to manually browse each one.

1. Install the Web Agents on a single system.
2. Using the Web browser, change password capability and set up the desired passwords.
3. Look in the C:\COMPAQ\WBEM directory (assuming C: is the
Windows system drive) for the file CPQHMMD.ACL. Save this file for use during bulk deployment.
4. Using the Web browser, set up any desired options on the Options page (follow the Options link from the Web Agent home page).
5. Look in the C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\HOMEPAGE directory for the file CPQHMMD.INI, and save this file for use during bulk deployment.
6.1. Use the Control Panel to stop all Web Agents before proceeding. This will stop the HTTP servers embedded in each Web Agent.
7. Copy the CPQHMMD.ACL file to the C:\COMPAQ\WBEM directory on each system.
8. Copy the CPQHMMD.INI file to the C:\COMPAQ\WBEM\HOMEPAGE directory on each system.
9. Restart the Web Agents
