Anyone else use this utility instead of trying to lookup the 
passwords with
L0phtCrack?

Yup. It's a great tool. Requires physical access though. And a word
of caution: If SysKey was enabled on the server, it will remove
SysKey, and with it all other passwords. So, if you need to grab an
account from a production server, and SysKey is enabled and you don't
want to reset a gazillion accounts, use l0phtcrack instead. If there
are only a few local machine accounts (for services), this Linux boot
disk can save the day quickly.

Frank
