CG I asked the same question of NT4 a few years ago on the NTBugtraq list. Russ did a good summary here http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/ntbugtraq/2003-q3/0033.html.

Can anyone tell me where the "remembered" passwords are stored when the "Enforce password history" is set in Group Policy? If this setting is set to its maximum value of 24 then I would expect 24 password hashes are stored for each account for the setting to work. But where? More importantly are there any tools/techniques for accessing the "remembered" passwords? Thanks CG
