  Just login using the Windows NT authentication. Change the Sa password. And this time keep it safe

  My SQL 2000 instance is installed on a Windows 2003 server. I don't see the sa account as a system user.

  I need to rest or hack the 'sa' password.

  Get a local administrator to connect using NT authentication and reset the sa password.
