Hi,

On Windows 2000 Server, how can I find out the date and/or time when the
Secure Channel's password changed.

Thanks

Look at the pwdLastSet attribute on the computer object.

HTH,

Install the support tools (\support on the windows server CDROM) and run
adsiedit.msc
Drill down to where the computer object is in the directory (under the
domain partition) and right-click and choose properties.
In the properties window, select pwdLastSet from the 'select a property to
view' drop-down and the result is a long integer in the value(s) box.

You could do the same using LDP and then use LDP's large-integer converter
to make more sense of the data.

Or you could script it. I think some of the scripting guru's here have
already written this script and made it freely available. Try searching for
pwdLastSet and password or something.

Or you could use adfind...

adfind -tdc -b basedn -f name=machinename pwdLastSet

or if you have a single domain or the machine is in the default domain

adfind -tdc -default -f name=machinename pwdLastSet


ex:

[Sun 01/23/2005 15:04:43.77]
C:\WINDOWS>adfind -tdc -default -f name=fastmofo pwdLastSet

AdFind V01.26.00cpp Joe Richards ([email protected]) January 2005

Using server: 2k3dc02.joe.com
Directory: Windows Server 2003
Base DN: DC=joe,DC=com

dn:CN=fastmofo,CN=Computers,DC=joe,DC=com
pwdLastSet: 01/12/2005-01:14:39

Is this command going to have any adverse effect on either the DC, or the
machine which I am querying about its password reset? FYI: The machine I am
querying is Exchange Server 2000. As you know, Exchange is tightly
integrated with Active Directory. I just want to make sure this command is
not going to have an adverse effect on either of two computers.

Thanks

"=?Utf-8?B?QW1pciBNYXJhdGhvbmlhbg==?="

It just displays the value of the attribute, it doesn't update or change
anything.

Adfind doesn't write anything, it is entirely read only.
