Correction on the last line.
"Note that after you disable the storage of passwords you will have
to change the
 password in order for it not to store the new password. My
understanding is that the old password will always remain." Should
read as "Note that after you disable the storage of passwords you
will have to change the password in order for it not to store the old
LM hash." From what I have seen the LM field for the hash is blanked
out but you will see a hash for the NTLM field.
