Although it is a well known fact that Windows desktops and servers still use LM Hashes and cache the last ten userids and passwords locally, just in-case an Active Directory, Domain, or NDS tree are not available, has anyone thought about the consequences of this issue in a hot-desking, or flexible working environment?
That's why you use policies to disable use of LM hashes and caching of passwords in environments like that. Regards Ansgar Wiechers -- "Der Computer ist da, um zu rechnen, nicht um Ausreden wie 'Kann nicht durch Null teilen' auf den Bildschirm zu schreiben." --Marco Haschka in de.org.ccc
