Motivation As any administrator knows, the native NT toolset is nothing short of abysmal. The Resource Kit is a slight improvement. What few tools exist are slow and awkward. Anyone who comes from a UNIX environment will be shocked at the totally dysfunctional state of affairs. The AINTX toolset aims to remedy some of these shortcomings. Yeah, there already exists a number of 3rd party administrative tools, but they tend to be expensive and adhere to Microsoft's notions of what is useful. This toolset has two advantages--it's damn cheap and, at least I find, the tools are quite useful in day-to-day management. Tool type The application names and switches are loosely based on AIX (hence AINTX). All included tools are console applications. This means they can be immediately accessed from a console session, as opposed to spending 2 minutes navigating through menus to launch and then wait for a GUI app to initialize. It also means the tools may be arbitrarily combined to extract quite specific bits of system information. In addition, the tools may used in batch/shell scripts and contribute the automation of administrative tasks. | ||
The Offline Utility to Change NT Passwords | This is a small utility
to (re)set the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on
your NT system, by modifying the crypted password in the registrys
SAM file. You do not need to know the old password to set a new one. It
works offline, that is, you have to shutdown your computer and boot off
a floppydisk. The bootdisk includes stuff to access NTFS partitions and
scripts to glue the whole thing together.
Note: It will not work on systems encrypted with SP3's syskey. It's VERY ALPHA yet, and relies heavily on undocumented structures and methods. You have been warned! |

NT Admin Tools.com | "In the Tricks of the Trade section, we wrote about a technique for forcing the NBT cache to contain entries for critical servers on a network. Even if the WINS server is down or the entries are corrupt, the cached entries will allow name resolution. An LMHOSTS file is needed that contains all of the server names, IP addresses and domain information, formatted in a particular way. We have created a program that generates the LMHOSTS file automatically and includes the #pre switch to load the entries into cache and 0x1b entries for browsing. This program also generates batch files that use "net view", "ping", "nslookup", and use nltest from the NT Resource kit to test your network setup. Additionally, this program will generate a batch file used to distribute the LMHOSTS file. This is the fourth release (version 1.3). This software is freeware, spread it around as you wish." | ||
