Security
Is there a way to override/bypass the system password if an administrator who leaves without giving anyone the password to install and setup systems withiin a department? There must be a way to find out what it is or how to handle this situation.
Thanks,
Barbara

Yes, there are tools out there that can "crack" the Windows SAM database, where the passwords are stored. It is actually quite a large industry, breaking Windows passwords. Many people have written apps to do this.
Do a search for "LC4" to find agood tool to do this easily. Normally, we do not talk about actual cracking techniques on this board.
hope this helps
