Hi all,
  I have got a cisco 6509 catalyst switch in my office .
  I have lost the enable password of this machine .

Is there any way of recovering it WITHOUT RESTARTING this 
switch.(the procedure on cisco site requires restarting the 
switch).This switch is very crucial to network & cannot be 
restarted.

I have heard that there is a way of getting switch running-config 
through SNMP & then decoding password through some C language 
code.

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated

Thanks & Regards
Arun
