It is a randomly generated, complex password.

As Ken mentioned this password is generated randomly. However, if you want
to find out what it is set to currently on the machine, you can use a
script called adsutil. Please refer to
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;297989 (More
information section for the procedure and command).
Hope this helps!

There is a VB script out there that can be used to reveal the password - its
location escapes me at the moment
