For L0phtcrack to work, in my experience, you have to have some kind of administrator priv's on the box you're doing it on anyway, making this a rather moot point. You can use the pwdump utility that they suggest to remotely hash the SAM, but, again, this requires an administrator password. Here's a link to a site that will give you a utility to do it, but it costs money: http://www.sunbelt-software.com/product.cfm?id=265 Good luck. pini0n -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG [mailto:owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG] On Behalf Of Kenzo Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 5:34 PM Cc: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: L0phtcrack Sorry guys, I didn't mean to be so rude. I just took the first couple replies the wrong way. Busy day and MX records not resolving correclty and stuff. I know that it sound suspicious to ask how to crack the windows password, but that is what I need to do, and I really don't have $300 bucks to pay for the new version of l0phcrack. Again the reason why I need this, is because a friend of mine forgot his windows XP admin password. and since it was the only account on there, he can't get back in. He can't affort to reload, because he got stuff on it that he need for school projects and stuff. I don't really know exactly what he's got in it, but he asked me if it was possible to retrieve the password or reset it. I told him it was possible and I've been trying for the last 2 days to do it. I tried the linux boot disk that suppose to reset the admin password, but that didn't work. I think it only works on 2000. then I booted from a win98 boot disk, then use dos ntfs to copy the sam file to a floppy and tried to use john to crack it. It sais that there's 0 passwords, But when I use a hash retriever, it list all the accounts. I noticed that there was a version of l0phtcrack on freebsd /usr/ports/security/l0phtcrack, and wanted to see if that helped, but I can't seem to find where it installs it and how I would use it. OK, I hope it was something like what you wanted to hear, even though it still sounds suspicious and I understand that. I'm an Admin myself. And for using hotmail account....Computer 101, never use your real or company e-mail address to post on forums, just attracks crackers. I guess it just depends on the person, I just prefer to use different e-mail accounts for work and personal stuff. I guest if you guys think that it's wrong to do so, please let me know why, cause I really can't think of any reasons. Again, sorry guys I didn't mean to offend you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jimi Thompson" <jimit@myrealbox.com> To: "Kenzo" <kenzo_chin@hotmail.com> Cc: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Monday, December 23, 2002 7:12 PM Subject: RE: L0phtcrack > Not that....asking how to crack Windows passwords from a hotmail email > box is just highly suspicious.
