Extracting Domain Users & Passwords from a DC

[Shady_Creeper]

We've been trying to extract the active directory user account passwords from the Primary Domain Controller in order to set up a new clean DC ( so dcpromo and syncronisation is out of the question)

but haven't found a way so far.

The Ideal Administration Tool from Pointdev didn't give any results as far as the passwords are concerned.

Any ideas on how to do it ?

You mean a new, clean AD rather than DC I assume?

(Otherwise DCPROMO'ing a member server and synch'ing would be the preferred route.)

Perhaps the Active Directory Migration Tool would be of use then?
