About:
chntpw is a Linux utility to (re)set the password of any user that has a valid (local) account on your WinNT or Win2000 system, by modifying the crypted password in the registry's SAM file. You do not need to know the old password to set a new one. It works offline (i.e., you have to shutdown your computer and boot off a linux floppy disk). The bootdisk includes stuff to access NTFS partitions and scripts to glue the whole thing together. This utility works with SYSKEY and includes the option to turn it off. A bootdisk image is provided.

[»] Licence is wrong

This is not BSD licenced, it is under a non-commercial use only licence, which is non-free.

    The author has re-licenced it under the GNU GPL (and ntreg under the LGPL). Yay!

[»] it works

Yes, it can reset any local account password on my manchines running Window NT 4, and Window 2000 pro.

SYSKey is on be default on W2k, but I can reset password without turn it off.
