Hi,
I've found cachedump to be reliable in the past, lsadump caused some crashing problems for me at the time so I didn't use it.

Could somebody tell me how to go about retrieving the hashes from the offline sam file. Is there a way? And if so what form do the hashes come in, DES?


Thanks

"You need both SYSTEM and SAM files from system32\config. SYSTEM contains the key, called syskey used to "decrypt" the hashes in the SAM file. Put both files in a directory and then use ophcrack "Load from encrypted SAM" command to recover the hashes."
