Just curious, but what would you use as an alternative? ACLs can be ignored if you have physical access to the machine. Online syncing solutions (like LastPass) are a little scary for me, if your keeping those keys to the kingdom in them. (Not to say LastPass and others like it are not great for personal password.) The only other option I can think of is a hand-written list, kept on something non-digital. Please enlighten me to the (I'm sure glaringly obvious) solution I'm not thinking of! Sm:)e.

If you don't trust Windows based ACLs, how do you secure anything in Windows? --Matt Ross Ephrata School District Michael B.

If not - well, you might have a lot of other concerns as well. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Buff Sent: Tuesday, November 4, 2014 7:41 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NTSysADM] Has anyone implemented this solution? Yes, they are stored in plain text in the AD field. That's something to think about, and something to test in the lab.
