Subject: Re: BMC Patrol password representations

Thanks Magnum and Nicolas

Nicolas, I am using a BMC tool called ctltool.exe but I suspect you may be
correct about a hardcoded key....

ctltool.exe will take an existing ctl file, as a template, and produce a
modified template based on a series of prompts from the user. This is how I
am generating the encrypted passwords. Apparently this exe also requires
the prence of a dll called bmcpwk.dll.   If the dll is not present I get
the following error message
ctltool.exe install.ctl install_test.ctl
Failed to load security library bmcpwk.dll, err=Cannot get intial values of
module stats: No such file or directory

I appreciate your responses

Jeff
