Haven't heard of this one before. I have a SAM file in C:\winnt\repair but the permissions look ok, pretty much only the admin can get in there. I read a few NT webpages that say the solution to this security hole is to change the permissions. Does this mean I'm safe after all, or do I have a vulnerability here? (I'm using win2k)
