SQL 2005 sa password RECOVERY not reset

Is there a way to RECOVER the SQL 2005 Standard Edition 'sa' password? Resetting the password could cause a re-installation of several applications. The person in charge of it has left the company.. several years ago and there's no record of
the password.
The various links and search options provided indicate a replacement or update.
Is MS support the only way?
TIA

"You can recover the SA password of SQL Server database account"
Above statement is incorrect, but perhaps you mean to say "cannot" instead of "can"?
"...for you can change the password..."
But that was not what the OP requested. The OP explicitly requested retrieving the SA password, not resetting it. And retrieving it is indeed impossible.

(MacBook pro 8,1) Firmware password will not reset. Resetting PRAM fails.

(MacBook pro 8,1) Firmware password will not reset. Resetting PRAM fails. Resetting NVRAM in Open Firmware fails. Resetting PMU fails. Any suggestions?

Not trying to circumvent any feature or security of the hardware. I am the owner of the hardware, I know the current firmware password. I am simply trying to turn off my current firmware password so that I may reset the PRAM to fix a failed OS install. The instructions to turn off the current firmware password should also include having to enter in the current firmware password as done on previous models with the boot CD. This feature was made available to all models because it is a security must have and it abides by industry-standard security procedures as stated in HIPPA and other ISO standards.

RV042 password Recovery without Reset

last year our Nework Security Supervisor submit hes resignation
and unfortunately did not endorse us the admin password we already tried the password
he suggested when we contacted him but nothing of them works.
Is there anyway we can reset the password withour resetting to factory default? Thanks hopegfully you can help me
Moreever,Telnet and SNMP is also disabled.
any thoughts how can i resolve this ....
thanks in advance ...

Hey Kahn,
Unfortunately I believe there is no way to recover the password without a factory reset. I've heard of a way to perform a password recovery through CLI, but since telnet is disabled, CLI can't be accessed.
I hope this helps,

DPM 2010 SharePoint 2007 and SQL 2005 long time Recovery point

Hi, i have two farms with two dedicated DPM for each of them
SP 2010 with SQL 2008 R2
SP 2007 with SQL 2005
While recovery point is running for 2010 multiple databases are taken simultaneously while in 2007 only one database at time in sequential order which leads in large time for recovery point of farm.
any recommendations or modification known for this behavior
Thanks

Hi,
I have not tried this with SharePoint workload - but give this a try.
Steps to enable parallel backups for SQL 2005 databases:
1. The fix in SQL Writer to enable parallel backups has been rolled out as part of SQL server SP4. So please update SQL Server 2005 to SP4.
2. On DPM Server, create Registry Key “SQL2005_ParallelBackup” under “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Configuration”
3. Create String Value with Name equals FQDN of SQL Server
and empty value, under registry key “SQL2005_ParallelBackup”
Let me know if that worked.

Windows Sharing "Accounts..." passwords do not reset?

I am trying to connect my PC to my Mac and it seems to work fine for my laptop but not for my G5 tower. So, I went into my sharing preferences on my G5 and checked that my Windows Sharing was turned on, it was. Then I clicked on the Accounts... button at the bottom right (while selected on Windows Sharing) and there was a list of all the Mac user accounts. This page states...
"Sharing with Windows computers requires storing your password in a less secure manner. You must enter the password for each account that you want to enable."
My administrative account is already selected, so I try to deselect it and it asks me for my password...
"Enter Account Password - Enter <Name>'s password to disable Windows Sharing for this account."
When I enter it in, it says "Incorrect Password" when I am sure it is the correct one. Why does this password not work and what can I do to reset it?
This seems like some sort of Apple bug to me?

Yeah, I assumed the password should be the Administrative password, but that is not working and I have tried multiple times so I am sure I am entering it correctly.
I can't connect to any windows shares because of this problem. So I am sure that there are no "shares mounted".
I mentioned that it is working on my laptop. So when I go to this same account settings area on the laptop, the admin password does work for this same setting.
I basically need some way of resetting this windows share account password from a different place? Does anyone know where I can do this? a preference file maybe or a plist file?

WiSM password recovery / config reset

I am configuring a WiSM blade. Consoling in I completed Side A with the initial config. It saved and reloaded. I was able to re-signed on with default name/pw and things looked good.
I plugged into B side (console) and used same default name/pw. Completed initial config. It saved, reloaded and then I could not sign in. The defaults no longer worked.
So I can not get on the B side to reset. How do I set the B side to factory defaults? If I reset the A side, does it reset both sides?
I then

I've had this happen to me on more than one occasion when I fat-fingered the password in the setup script.
One way to do this is to attach a console cable to side B and reset the module from the switch (hw-module module [module number] reset). This will reboot both sides, but Side A should be fine. When Side B comes up, type in "Recover-Config" for the user name. This will reset the module and you can re-enter the setup script. Be sure that "Recover-Config" is the first thing you enter because if you put anything else in, you have to reset the module again.

Password recovery spanning two systems

I'm trying to find a solution that does not involve recoding native sap code to save upgrade frustrations etc.
Is it possible to have IDM's Password Recovery feature reset the password and unlock a user in system A, and then also unlock the same user in system B,C,D..+N and send that new password from system A to the users email address in system B?
The users donu2019t care what their password is in systems B...N+ as they are using netweaver portal for SSO, but they need the password emailed to them with their registered email in system B. So... reset password in A and send email to address in system B and unlock them in the other systems... is it possible?

John,

IPS-4240 Password Recovery

Hi,
I have a problem with IPS-4240. Nobody of my workmates knows the password and I read that the only way is to reinstall the version of IOS. Is there any other way to recover the password than reinstalling?
thanks.
GNU GRUB version 1.0(11)2 (631K lower / 2096128K upper memory)
0: Cisco IPS
1: Cisco IPS Recovery
Model=IPS-4240
When you troubleshoot password recovery, pay attention to the following:
• You cannot determine whether password recovery has been disabled in the sensor configuration
from the ROMMON prompt, GRUB menu, switch CLI, or router CLI. If you attempt password
recovery, it always appears to succeed. If it has been disabled, the password is not reset to cisco.
The only option is to reimage the sensor.

Hi,
Before recovering you can 1st check the current state of password recovery with using this command: show settings | include password
If you do password recovery without checking the recovery feature that it enabled or disabled than the password can not be set to cisco (It will show succeed) and you need to reimage the sensor. So, before using password recovery you should check that password recovery is allowed or not.

DBLookup with UCCE 7.5 & SQL 2005

Does anyone know if the DBLookup to a SQL2005 database is now supported on UCCE 7.5? This wasn't previously supported in earlier UCCE versions although there was a workaround, albeit unsupported. I can find zero documentation on this compatability in the 7.5 docs online.

BTW, here is the doc from Cisco regarding the compatability with SQL 2005. It specifically notes that this was only tested on ICM 8.0 and higher. Now I wonder if they would have been referring to the original 8.0 which ended up as 7.5. If that's the case, no worries but would still like to see something confirming this fact.

Different password demands after resetting users login password

iMac 27", Mavericks
Had to reset users (norm.) password.
Now user gets demands from Mail, Calendar agent and com.apple.iCloudHelper.xpc where those programs want to use keychain and user must give his password.
What has happend?
How to stop these demands?

Resetting the user login password does not reset the keychain password. You must change the password on the login keychain to match the users new password.
You can change it in the Keychain Access program.
If you do not know the users old password, you'll have to reset the login keychain, losing all stored passwords.

Blackberry ID - forgot password, forgot password recovery info, exceeded login attempts, why can't BB send me email to reset password.

THE ISSUES ARE:
1. FORGOT PASSWORD
2. FORGOT PASSWORD RECOVERY INFO
3. EXCEEDED ATTEMPTS TO LOGIN
I HAVE READ OTHER PEOPLES FORUM PROBLEMS THAT ARE THE SAME. WHEN I FOLLOWED LINKS THAT SUPPORT GAVE THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM.
What I need is simply this: Blackberry to send me a RESET PASSWORD link to the email I have registered with Blackberry WITHOUT HAVING TO PROVIDE PASSWORD RECOVERY INFO. This will enable me to bypass unknown recovery password info and access my Blackberry ID account.
Why haven't I been able to find a solution to fix the problem?
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T APPEAR TO EXIST........ ANYWHERE..... EVEN ON YOUTUBE BLACKBERRY ARE RUNNING AN OUT OF DATE SOLUTION CENTRE.
When looked online to Blackberry youtube video it shows a solution that doesn't exist! WHY? BECAUSE IT WAS UPLOADED IN 2011. DUH. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvdRb4qNG1M
If I can't remember my password or recovery password info there is NO other option available that will send me a reset password via email so I can keep my current BB ID.
KB34776 - does not apply because you HAVE TO BE ABLE TO REMEMBER YOUR RECOVERY PASSWORD!
CHECKED THIS OUT...
Workaround
If the BlackBerry ID password has been forgotten but the answer to the password recovery question is known, select Forgot Password on the smartphone and answer the recovery question to generate a password reset email. Follow KB28685 to complete this process.
If the BlackBerry smartphone user knows the email address used for the BlackBerry ID login but is unable to remember the associated password then it is possible to reset the password using the steps below:
Note: If the BlackBerry ID account is not confirmed, it is necessary to provide the answer to the password recovery question as part of the web based password reset flow.
To see if a BlackBerry ID account is confirmed, log in to the BlackBerry ID account, select Account Details and locate the Email Status field.  For instructions on confirming the BlackBerry ID account follow KB34137.
Browse to the following URL using a desktop browser, the BlackBerry Browser on the BlackBerry smartphone, or the Browser on the BlackBerry PlayBook: http://blackberryid.blackberry.com/bbid/recoverpassword
Enter the BlackBerry ID Username (email address) and the CAPTCHA characters, then clickSubmit.
Enter the Answer to the Password Recovery Question, then click OK.
Note: Answering the recovery question is only required if the BlackBerry ID account is not confirmed.
A confirmation message will be displayed A password reset email has been sent to [email protected], at which point, a reset email will be delivered to the associated email address inbox.
Log in to the email account associated to the BlackBerry ID using the desktop browser, BlackBerry Browser on the smartphone, or the Browser on the BlackBerry PlayBook.
Locate the password reset email and select the Change your BlackBerry ID password link.
Note: The BlackBerry ID reset email will come from [email protected]. If the email is not found in the inbox, check the mailbox's Spam or Junk folder.
When the password reset page loads, enter the Answer to the Password Recovery Question, enter the New Password, Confirm Password, then click Submit.
A confirmation message will display once the changes have been saved successfully.
Moving forward use the newly created password whenever logging into BlackBerry ID.
If the BlackBerry smartphone user does not know the email or password that was used for the BlackBerry ID, the BlackBerry ID will be locked out after 10 unsuccessful login attempts. See KB24157 for BlackBerry ID lockout behavior.
THEN CHECKED KB24157......
Overview
BlackBerry ID is the master key to BlackBerry smartphone products, sites, services and applications, including BlackBerry Protect and the BlackBerry App World storefront.
To prevent unauthorized access to the account, the BlackBerry ID will become locked out after a number of failed attempts. See the information below for an outline on the expected behavior:
Local Authentication Lockout
On BlackBerry PlayBook and BlackBerry smartphones if the user enters their BBID password incorrectly 10 times on the BBID sign in screen, verify password screen, or BBID Edit screens, they are LOCKED OUT of all the following functions on that BlackBerry device for 15 minutes:
Authenticating with their BlackBerry ID on the sign in screen
Authenticating with their BlackBerry ID on the verify password screen
Authenticating with their BlackBerry ID on the BBID edit screens
Note: The user can still log in on the web or any other devices associated with their BlackBerry ID. They are only locked out on the device where the 10 incorrect attempts occurred. On the locked out device, after 15 minutes, they get 1 try to provide the correct password on the sign in and/or verify password screens. If they fail to enter the correct password, they are locked out for an additional 15 minutes on that device.
Account Server Lockout
Users have total of 10 attempts to enter their password correctly against the BlackBerry ID Account Server.
The scenarios that increment the Account Server lockout counter are as follows:
Providing an incorrect password anywhere on the BlackBerry ID web portal (blackberry.com/blackberryid)
Providing an incorrect password within the BlackBerry ID Edit feature on any BlackBerry device or BlackBerry PlayBook
Note: if a user provides an incorrect password 5 times on the BlackBerry ID web portal (blackberry.com/blackberryid), and then 5 more times on the BlackBerry ID Edit feature on their BlackBerry PlayBook, the cumulative number of failed attempts is 10. Once the user has made 10 incorrect attempts to provide their password against the Account Server, they are locked out of the Account Server PERMANENTLY until they reset their password.
See KB26361 for information to reset a BlackBerry ID password
Note: The Account Server Lockout does NOT prevent the user from local authenticating on devices (the user can still authenticate on the sign in and verify password screens on their BlackBerry devices).
Forgot Password Lockout
If the user answers their Security Question incorrectly 10 times, they are locked out for 15 minutes of Forgot Password functionality on all interfaces such as:
BlackBerry website (blackberry.com/blackberryid)
BlackBerry PlayBook
BlackBerry smartphone
Note: After 15 minutes, they get 1 try, and if they fail to answer the question correctly, they are locked out for an additional 15 minutes.
THAT DIDN'T WORK SO NOW ITS BACK TO..... KB26361
Overview
To change the BlackBerry ID password, complete the steps below for the specific device:
From the BlackBerry 10 smartphone:
Swipe down from the top bezel on the home screen and select Settings.
Scroll down and select BlackBerry ID.
Select Change Password.
Enter the current password in the Current BlackBerry ID Password field.
Enter the new password in the New BlackBerry ID Password and Confirm New Passwordfields.
Select Submit to complete the password change.
To confirm the change You have changed your password will be displayed.
Also, if the BlackBerry ID password has been forgotten, select Forgot Password on the smartphone and answer the recovery question to generate a password reset email. Follow KB28685 to complete this process.
Note: When using the recovery question password reset method, the generated email will be delivered to the BlackBerry 10 smartphone if the BlackBerry ID email address has been setup via Settings >Accounts
From a computer:
Visit http://www.bbid.com/ from a PC or BlackBerry smartphone browser.
Click Log in.
Enter the BlackBerry ID Username (email address) and password, then click Sign In.
Click Account Details.
Next to Password, click Edit.
Enter in the current password, followed by the new password. Enter the new password again in the confirm password field, then click Save.
Click Done to exit from the BlackBerry ID account information screens.
From the BlackBerry smartphone running BlackBerry 6:
Navigate to Options > Third Party Applications > BlackBerry ID.
Click on Change next to BlackBerry ID Password.
Enter in the current password, followed by the new password. Enter the new password again in the confirm password field, then click OK.
A confirmation message will display Your password has been successfully changed.
Click OK.
From the BlackBerry smartphone running BlackBerry 7:
Navigate to Options > Device > BlackBerry ID.
Click on Change next to BlackBerry ID Password.
Enter in the current password, followed by the new password. Enter the new password again in the confirm password field, then click OK .
A confirmation message will display Your password has been successfully changed.
Click OK.
From the BlackBerry Playbook tablet:
Navigate to the Options icon.
Select BlackBerry ID.
Click on the Edit button next to Change Password.
Enter in the current password, followed by the new password. Enter the new password again in the confirm password field, then click Submit.
A confirmation message will display You have changed your password.
Click OK.
If the password for a BlackBerry ID account has been forgotten and the login is unsuccessful, use the following process to reset the password.
Note: If the BlackBerry ID account is not confirmed, it is necessary to provide the answer to the password recovery question as part of the web based password reset flow.  To see if a BlackBerry ID account is confirmed, login to the BlackBerry ID account, select Account Details and locate the Email Status field.  For instructions on confirming the BlackBerry ID account follow  KB34137.
To generate a password reset email, complete the following:
Browse to the following URL using a desktop browser, the Browser on the BlackBerry smartphone or the Browser on the BlackBerry PlayBook: http://blackberryid.blackberry.com/bbid/recoverpassword
Enter the BlackBerry ID Username (email address) and the CAPTCHA characters, then clickSubmit.
Enter the Answer to the Password Recovery Question, then click OK. (Answering the recovery question is only required if the BlackBerry ID account is not confirmed)
A confirmation message will be displayed A password reset email has been sent to [email protected] , at which point, a reset email will be delivered to the associated email address inbox.
Login to the email account associated to the BlackBerry ID using the desktop browser, BlackBerry Browser on the BlackBerry smartphone or the browser on the BlackBerry PlayBook.
Locate the password reset email and select the Change your BlackBerry ID password link.
Note: The BlackBerry ID reset email will come from [email protected] If the email is not found in the inbox, check the Spam or Junk folder.
When the password reset page loads, enter the Answer to the Password Recovery Question, enter the New Password, Confirm Password, then click Submit.
Note: Answering the recovery question is only required if the BlackBerry ID account is not confirmed.
A confirmation message will display once the changes have been saved successfully.
Moving forward use the newly created password whenever logging into BlackBerry ID.
Note: If the BlackBerry ID email address is a BlackBerry mail address (e.g. <username>@tmo.blackberry.net), the BlackBerry ID password reset email will not be received on the BlackBerry smartphone. Since the BlackBerry mail address is not accessible from a computer, the steps outlined in KB28111 will need to be performed.
IT ALL LEADS BACK TO THE SAME UNHELPFUL NON-SOLUTION OF USE THE PASSWORD RECOVERY QUESTION....
Can the tech department of Blackberry please sort out this ridiculous unhelpful system by sending customers a direct email if password is forgotten so they can reset without having to go through the above without finding a solution.
THANK YOU.

SQL Agent job running DTS package running in SQL 2005 is unable to run if job onwer is not logged onto server

I am currently working on a SQL Server upgrade project for a a client where I am converting old dts packages to SSIS. However for a few of the packages no conversion is allowed to be done. For these few packages I have to use dts legacy components in SQL
2005 on a windows 2003 server to run them.
These packages use CAPICOM via an Active X script in the package to envelope connection string data for security within the package. Consequently I have to register the capicom.dll for the job owner (which will execute the job via proxy) and install private
and public key files via internet explorer. I also do this when I am logged in with my account so i can test the package.
I have created a SQL Server Agent Job which is used to execute the package. We have a schedule account which is local admin on the server and sysadmin within SQL Server. This account is used to create a credential and then a proxy for the CmdExec subsystem
is then created based on this credential. A CmdExec job step is then added to the job. The directory of cmd file which calls the dts package is then entered in the command window.
Finally a recurring schedule is added to execute the job every 5 minutes.
If i am logged in to the server using the scheduled account the schedule runs successfully. I am also able to run the command file manually by double clicking on it. The DTS package is run successfully. However once the schedule is set up and I log off the
machine and log onto my development machine with my normal account and fire up SQL Server. I connect to that instance with the schedule and see that the job is failing with and Active X error in the package. From experience with this package this Active
X error occurs when the user executing the package has not registered the capicom.dll. This has already been done for the scheduler account because the job runs when the scheduler account is logged in on the server.
It almost seems as though the job will only run if the Scheduler account is logged on. If i log directly on to the server with own user account I am able to manually execute the package via the cmd file which indicates that the capciom.dll is registered
under my account. Yet if I try an run the job in SQL Server when I am logged in under my account (using the scheduler account proxy) then the job fails.
Does anybody have any idea why this may be happening? Any ideas would be much appreciated

Run the job SSIS step under a proxy account that is derived from the domain account, non-expiring password and has been set to have all the necessary rights.

There is something quite strange going on but one thing has caught my attention in particular. This is a part of your transcript:

Notice that the first question is whether you want to erase the configuration - you respond with yes, and the router continues booting. The second question displayed clearly shows that the router continues loading the configuration file and in particular processes the no service password-recovery command.
What would happen if you answered with n to this second question, preventing the router from accepting the no password-recovery stored command? Could you reload the router afterwards and try the password recovery procedure again?
Also, if this router has a removable Flash card, would you be able to enter the ROMMON and set the configuration register to 0x2142 if you removed the card and tried booting the router?
