Subject: SYSKEY (was: john the ripper output)
I've been asking this before, but I'll repeat:
Whenever you post something on a new topic, please be sure to post it as
an entirely new message - _not_ by hitting "Reply" on someone else's
posting. Please also make sure to set a descriptive message Subject.
If you see that someone else has not followed this procedure, but you'd
like to comment on their message, please change the Subject (like I did
now), but do not break the existing thread (so "Reply" to the message).
My response to the actual question is below:

This is irrelevant to your question, but you should not be using
john-386.exe on modern systems. It is for ancient ones.
Use john-mmx.exe instead.

There's a collection of tools which you can use here:
ftp://ftp.openwall.com/pub/projects/john/contrib/win32/pwdump/
This includes programs to dump SAM files in PWDUMP format and to undo
the effect of SYSKEY.
Please let us all know which one(s) of these have worked better for you.
I don't "do" Windows myself, so I can't recommend a specific procedure
for you to follow.
