There are several ways to do this ... suggest using the search feature on menu bar -- not the forum search - for "host password" ..

However is an article by Mitchel Sellers that you may want to try... http://www.mitchelsellers.com/blogs/a...

If you want to actualy "get" the password back, that you are going to need to do from the .NET API actually, due to the values being encrypted by default.

There is a method called "GetPassword" or something similar that takes a user object and their "Secret answer" (with by default is just an empty string), this will then return the password for the user account.  You can most likely whip up a quick bit of code to do this to get the password back.

If you are just looking to get into the site, youc an have a look at the article that Paul linked to on my blog.  Feel free to also drop me an e-mail with questions. msellers@iowacomputergurus.com
