Nowadays, NT administrators face a tough task in ensuring network security, because of password sniffers such as l0pht, which can sniff an NT password easily. To solve this, one can use a network sniffer that can detect such
password sniffers. The network sniffer could log a user running a password sniffer and also issue an alert. An example of such a network sniffer is

The user password never leaves the local machine with Win2000 using Kerberos security. It is never exposed to the network so it should not be able to be
sniffed.
