The old DBA took with him the password for the Distribution Administrative Link, so I am unable to create a new Publisher and select this Distributor as the remote distributor. We are already live in production using another Publisher and this current Distributor so I cannot change the password right now. Anyone know a password crack software so I can retrieve the password? Or are there other suggestions?

Here are my specs:

Distributor server: SQL Server 2005
Publishers: SQL Server 2000 (in prod now)
New Publisher to add: SQL Server 2005

Thanks in advance!
