SQLPWAudit

SQLPWAudit (SQL PassWord Audit) is a very simple-to-use tool for recovering simple passwords or performing internal security audits.

Of course, a recovery/auditing engine is only about one third of the battle, you'll also need a good word list (see below) and one other thing which I cannot provide you: time!

Explanation of functionality SQLPWAudit is a very simple application, but it also implements parallel-processing capabilities and one hell of a permutation engine. Its use is simple: (1) download the application, (2) fire up the application and login to a SQL Server using an administrators account, (3) select the users which you wish to audit, (4) set advanced settings/or leave them alone then (5) click start.

All processing is performed on the computer which is actually running SQLPWAudit - in fact, the SQL server is only accessed one time to grab the users and their binary passwords - so this is perfectly safe to execute against a production server as long as SQLPWAudit is actually running on a non-production system.
