This is the first time I ran into this....

I have a customer that's running an older version of SBS on a WinNT
platform. He's having problems with the exchange server and needs help. The
problem is, he can't remember the administrator password and we are not able
to get into the system.
Is there a way to reset the admin password?


Thanks

CW

Is anyone else a member of the Domain Admins group?

No, they only have the administrator account setup under the admin group.
