Hi,

A couple of years back I saw a tool illustrated at a conference that
would pull the encoded password from BIOS. However, Google fails to show
any such tool.

Note that I am not trying to clear/reset the password. What I want to do
is to recover a BIOS password during a pen-test so I can reboot the box
at will without making any changes to the box.

Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Jon
