The password lists that the old IT Administrator left here are not up to date. Basically I need to get an updated list of everyone's password and username. does anyone know of a quick way to getting that info without going to every user and requesting the information. Is there any type of software that does that.

Since passwords are stored in the SAM database in encrypted form, the way to create such a list would be to use Password Cracking software.

Probably one of the most respected of these packages is LC4 (formally known as L0phtCrack) by @stake (www.atstake.com), but it is pricey.

You have to change all passwords and give them to the users. Your list will updated and you will not need to crakc your SAM db.
