Hello friends:

I recently migrated users from Windows NT 4.0 domain to Windows 2003 Active
Directory, but I could not migrate passwords during the user account
migration process. Presently all the migrated users in AD have their
passwords same as their user name, I would like to import their original NT
password to AD with a script. But I am not very good with scripting. Any
help would be greatly appreciated.

Regards

I don't think that can be done. And a good thing too, if you *could*
determine what people's passwords are, well, they wouldn't be as secure.

Do you let your users keep the same passwords forever? If not, just get them
to login and have a password change enforced.

Thanks for the help

LOL! That will teach me to speak up on something I may not be sure of! ;-)
