From the Microsoft provided documents, "Hardening Windows 2003 Server
Domain Controllers" part of the "Windows Server 2003 Security Guide"
one reads...

"Finally, the loss of the Syskey password or floppy disk leaves your
domain controller in a state where it cannot be restarted. There is no
method for you to recover a domain controller if the Syskey password or
floppy disk is lost. If this happens, the domain controller must be
rebuilt."

Hi list,

Does anyone knows a way to disable syskey encryption or a way to
retrieve the password for a SAM encripted with syskey?

Regards
