Greetings,
Simple problem here:
I have a SQL Login with SQL Server authentication and I need to know what is the password. How can I see the password?
Thank you

Lastbit Software's SQL Password is pretty decent - $149 (http://lastbit.com/sqlpassword/default.asp)

NGS Software has some great tools for this:

However, as soon as you crack a password, if it belongs to a user, your organization may no longer be able to have nonrepudiation on that user.

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

Nonrepudiation = you can't deny you did it. As soon as a password is cracked, at least 2 people know it. Now you can.

Thanks - I had to wiki it to make sure I knew what it meant. I guess the link isn't very clear in my previous post.
Good word though.

It's a common word on the security side. If you ever end up taking a security related test, even Security+, you'll see it a ton. I saw it several times on my CISA exam.
