Keychain brute force?

I just had to command r and reset my password because i forgot it, but, as we know that does not reset keychain password. so is there a brute force for mac or maybe the guys down at the shop can do it there?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Use Keychain Access in /Utilities to update the keychain password.

There's an application called keychaindump and a script called DevilRobber, either of which, with root access, can be used to decrypt Keychain passwords. Obviously, there's a learning curve, but if you're still interested you can google around. And there is commercially available pen testing software that will do the same thing. Try this in a search engine: decrypt os x keychain password
