SAM is correct, but I’m surprised people still mix it up!

I don't think the passwords are in a shadow file or a password.conf. Those seem more related to Linux systems, right?

AMS sounds familiar, but I can't recall what it specifically refers to in this context. I might be mixing it up with something else.

I think the passwords are stored in the SAM, but I'm not completely sure if that's only for local accounts or if it applies to domain controllers too.

I remember something about NTLM and the SAM file from practice questions, so I’m leaning towards option A.

Okay, let me think this through. The key is to identify the three correct statements from the options provided. I'll need to carefully evaluate each one.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Does it mean we have to choose two options, or can we select more than two? I'll need to read it carefully to make sure I understand the requirements.

No, passwords are stored in the Security Account Manager (SAM) database.

B, the AMS. It's like the Active Directory version of the SAM, right?

I think it's C, the shadow file. That's where Linux stores passwords, right?

No, it's not the shadow file. It's actually A) SAM where the passwords are stored on domain controllers.

A, the SAM database is where passwords are stored on Active Directory domain controllers using NTLM authentication. This is the correct answer.
