Hi Shane,
Windows XP Recovery console is current local administrator password. So if
you change the local admin password also recovery console password changes.
You probably mixed this with Active Directory restore mode. That password
could not be changed (and was the same for recovery console on AD server).
This "issue" was addressed in SP2 where you could change password for Active
Directory Restore Mode and Recovery console. For this you can use setpwd
utility on Windows 2000 SP2...
