Now I understand your appliance architecture and how you deal with the encryption issues.   This doesn't seem like a smart way to do it, to me.

I have tried some other tools also (like lsadump) but they all are failing to read it. We are working on Exchange DR solution- so we need to import the machine password from production exchange server and we set the same password on our DR box.     The same function is working on windows 2000 and windows 2003 in same domain. But its failing on Windows 2003 R2.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Sunday, August 13, 2006 1:42 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2003 R2 Issue   I have two questions.   1. Where are you reading the password from?   2.

Single Domain Topology:   AD Server = Windows 2003 R2 + SP1 Exchange Server: - Windows 2003 R2 + Exchange 2003 Ent + SP2 + latest Microsoft security patches.   Problem: I am unable to read the machine password of the Exchange Server. It says Error if I try to access the machine password. I need the machine password of exchange server for testing some code. Any idea what could be the reason?   I am able to get the password successfully from another exchange server which is running in Windows 2003 OS.
