If I did that I would be flamed 
I was asked to break the password of a laptop, the owner had died, so I did some research, as a test I created a new account and password on my XP bix and managed to get the password.
But to give you a clue, I am sure you would find it eventually, use rainbowcrack http://www.antsight.com/zsl/rainbowcrack/
I think you will find it takes far too long to make the tables for this to be an easy soluion, but it is possible! Also you need to be able to get these two files to crack the password
BTW in the end breaking into the laptop was so easy I did not need to do the above.

Windows 95/98 used to store the password with some trivial encryption in a file in the windows directory, but anything later than that does not. As others have said, through the miracle of cryptographic hashing algorithms, it is not necessary to actually store a password in order to be able to verify it. Thus, NT/2000/XP/2003 only store password hashes, not actual passwords.

Good luck ...and i would appreciate if youw ill be able to help me :-

You can disable remote desktop and terminal services and all these things that allow any one to use your pc and log to it ,by setting the Services you want only , and also from the Local Security Policy ,they are really good and helpful ,i have modified them in my own system and it is doing good till now

I am not sure if this is qualified as 'hacking' really. After all, he is the system admin.

In general concept, administator is the person that have the complete right to perform any action in the system. Whether, he or she has the full right and permission to access the system and data, they must have an ethical to access each user privacy. User privacy should be access only if there is a time for investigation on an serious issue. If you are a general user in the network, you have no opportunity to prevent any sensitive information to your administrator. Discuss this issue in the meeting to find out the solution.

If the problem could not be solve, try to keep only data that relate to your work in the computer. Any personal data should be keep in the personal removable media (flash drive or external hard disk drive).

I am not quite sure I understand the question but the built-in administrator account in Windows 2000 is called Administrator.
Any other account you create that you want to have admin privliges needs to be added to the administrators group.

Yes, it is the default account that create automatically after windows 2000 have been setup. But remember that Administrator account could be renamed also. So my question is: how to identify which account that is the built in admin account (the account that create during setup) and which account is the admin account that create by the user (network administrator)??? If it is possible, could we identify this issue in MSDOS??

Try to delete it and if it's built-in account it will refuse the dleeting process.

I think this is the risky method. If it is not the built-in account, it would gone. Whether you can create a new account with the same name and group membership, it each account has a unique id that would be load a difference profile.

I get really annoyed when I open an explorer window on a directory containing just a couple of files, and get a window that sprawls across half the desktop which I then have to resize manually. Is there an easy (or difficult) way of getting explorer to open directory views just big enough for the number of files in that directory?
Cheers,
Steve.

I think it is very difficult for you to do that. As far as I know, Microsoft did not give you the patch to solve this. Try to open and close it many time, to ensure that it is working or not...

Is there a way to do this without creating a logon script?
|
|
|
|

One more thing that you can do is creating home folder[^]. But before you do that, I recommend you to know about creating roaming user profile[^].
