Hi,
thanks Vishal
but what iam trying to ask u that is wheher it is possible
to change password using the extended procedure
'xp_cmdshell' ????

can he/she use the xp procedure to change the win2k/NT
administrator password ????
like i know sysadmin using the isqlw can start the telnet
service !! on the server using
xp_cmdshell 'net start Telnet'

i have checked it !!

does the SQL server with default installation have the
rights to do that for the domain ???
can he add a user who can possess administrator rights ?

any help is appreciated
chow
