Nessus 3 NTLM password usage
Hi,

I would like to ask how to format the NTLM hash (and if it's true that
NTLM is pure MD4 of the user password).
I have filled the password field for the user account: scanuser, domain:
companydomain, the password: 1F533C644A8D1709F8B255533096C679, changed
the SMB password type field: NTLM Hash, but the domain locked the user
out (bad password).
Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Zsolt

FYI.

NTLM = md4(ascii2unicode(‘password’))

Miguel,

I know I've done something wrong. Using md5 instead of md4 and ascii
instead of utf16. Everything else was fine :)
Now it works.

Thanks a lot,
Zsolt
