I found that AuditWizard 6.3.2 by Layton Technologies is leaving the domain administrator password in the logfiles of machines that it audits if you use the Remote Audit feature. I've contacted them but they have yet to produce a fix. They have acknowledged the problem but according to their tech support, "upper management" has decided not to publish any information about the problem on their website. Here's what the C:LaytonCmdSvc.log contains on many of my systems: Layton Remote Command Process started Logon with the following credentials User: administrator Domain: ippc Password: <removed> Logged on ok LogonUser Successful Command Executed is : "\CoorsauditScanScan32.exe" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
