I recently ran into this webiste: http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpa...
and thought i should let others know about it because it is a great tool, and may come in handy to some people in the near future. I downloaded the Cd .iso and used it flawlessly on a Win2k box, it says it works with XP and even Vista.

Great tool i appreciate whomever took the time to develop it,
Thats my 2cents worth.

comes in handy when you have machines around that you did not config, and have no idea what the pass's are.

Heya

This looked like exactly what I needed to reset the admin password but unfortunately I couldn't get it to run in vista as it won't recognise the default file path to SAM(which is the correct one I think).

Oh well it was worth a try
