This is a utility to (re)set the password of any user that has a valid
(local) account on your NT system. You do not need to know the old
password to set a new one. It works offline, that is, you have to
shutdown your computer and boot off a floppy disk or CD. The bootdisk
includes stuff to access NTFS and FAT/FAT32 partitions and scripts to
glue the whole thing together. Will detect and offer to unlock locked
or disabled out user accounts!
Windows NT stores its user information, including crypted versions of
the passwords, in a file called 'sam', usually found in \winnt\system32\config.
This file is a part of the registry, in a binary format previously undocumented,
and not easily accessible. As far as we know, Microsoft provides no
way of changing the password if you cannot log in as someone with appropriate
privileges, except restoring the registry files from the rescue floppy.
You forget passwords?
You never get answer to admin when someone quits suddenly?
Your vendor delivers a pre-configured system to you, but never have "freak"
accidents and lose the password they've set on it?
If so, our tool will help you out!!
