Dumping other saved passwords from the machine

You have already learned about dumping and saving plaintext passwords from the memory. However, sometimes, not all passwords are dumped. Not to worry; Metasploit has other post-exploitation modules, using which we can gather saved passwords of different applications and services running on the server we compromised. 

How to do it...
