mates, need your inputs badly. we have w2k3 server with a newly installed application ... unfortunately, the system staff who's in-charge for that server has forgotten the admin password he inputted in the last few weeks. any idea on how to recover it or other way to login on that server? advance thanks to everyone.
Hello ! just take a look at peter nordahls rescue cd. It will overwrite the password. You will find it here: http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/ It is tested with Win98, Win2000, Win2003 and WinXP. As I do not have Windows Vista (and probably will never have cause I am using Linux), I do not know, if it works with Vista. Anyway, make a disk, boot from it and well, it is all self explaining. Good luck ! Hans-J. Ullrich
