How do I turn off Enforce password history

My boss was forced to change the Admin password on a SBS 2008 server to log in.  Now he wants it back to the same one he had before.  How do I go about doing this?

Great! Because you are server 2008, you may want to look into Multiple Password Policies. You can create a separate password (without password ages) for service accounts.

It got the job done.
To re-use the earlier password, change through AD was very useful in my situation..
