Thanks for the very good thread discussing this. One of the mitigation factors for the LANMAN hashes is to use a passphrase longer than 15 characters. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;EN-US;q299656&#XSLTH315912 1124120121120120 This is one of the things I'm trying to push our administrators to doing for their passphrases. -- Chris Green UAB Data Security, 5-0842
