found out it is a file generated when Windows user authentication is enabled in OS X Server and a .tim is generated for each root/local domains, only accessible by root.

Quote:


	To use encrypted password validation, you enable Authentication Manager for all domains in the hierarchy and define an encryption key for each domain. When Authentication Manager is enabled, a tim_passwd property is stored in NetInfo user/ Manager records. It can be decrypted to get the cleartext password using the encryption key, which is stored in a file on the server that is readable only by root.
