Hi all,
I am the administrator of 200 systems. I want to view password hashes of the users who log in .How can i do that?? I know passwords are stored as one way hashes. But then how is the checking of the users password done with the password history??? Please elaborate this process??? How is the users password checked with the Password History in Active Directory.
Kindly note that this question is related to Active Directory and not the Operating System.
Waiting for a response from you people.

Are you asking to view the actual password itself as it is passed to AD?

Or, are you asking how the system checks these passwords against the history?
