I hope that this is the proper place to post this.  I have a need to create a new users on a none DNN site programatically from DNN.  The customer requirement is that I use the same password as the DNN site.  Hence the reason I am posting my question.  I have spent the better part of 3 hours looking for this answer so I will post it here and hopefully someone can point me to the right direction.

Since I need to get the existing users password i need to verify that indeed it can be retrived in a decrypted format.
Secondly I could use a bit of a push to where I can find either some samples or a discussion of what I need to be doing inorder to get this data.
I can get the username and the portal ID I just seem to be missing the password piece.

Any help would be very much appreciated thanks.

Getting passwords is a tricky business.  Here's some code that's worked for me:

var user = Membership.GetUser(userName);
user.GetPassword();

Hope that helps,
