Change the owner name (OS 9)

I need to have a script change the owner name of different computers for a
printer accounting program we are using. I keep getting an "access denied"
when I try this.

I'm using this syntax:

Set (owner name) of "Macumax" to "tkw4u"

Is is possible to change the owner name of a computer via scripting? Do I
need an OSAX? I know I can read the owner name, but I've never tried to
change it. We're running 9.2 on all the Macs.
