Hello,

Since we don't know what the password is, how do we reset it. This is the
password when we need to repair/restore windows.

Thanks,
tnt
 
Re: Resetting password for restore/repair

Hello,

do you mean when booting from the CD, using the repair console ? if so take
care, it's often qwerty

It's the local administrator password.

if it's a stand alone server and you don't know the local admin account, you
can reset it:
http://home.eunet.no/pnordahl/ntpasswd/


Or do you mean Active Directory restore mode ?

I meant resetting password for "Active Directory restore mode".
