Might also be helpful here to know which OS you're targeting.

With which tool of sysinternals exactly?

And in worst case you need to visit every of the 300 Servers. And if this will be the case, I suggest to put them into a Domain and to think about to use Active Directory.

All the best.

Yes, it could be considered as off-topic, but, in principle, if this is about learning scripting required for such admin chores, it can still be considered programming.
Please see my answer.

If you target Windows, one set of tools would be the Windows remote administration service (which should work on target computers anyway) and PowerShell.
Please see: https://4sysops.com/archives/change-the-local-administrator-password-on-multiple-computers-with-powershell[^].

In principle, if you have very few computers to service, your can just use RPD. Please see: http://www.howtogeek.com/134679/geek-school-learning-windows-7-remote-administration[^].

Apparently, PowerShell gives you a lot more, well… power and can free you from a lot of boring manual work.
