I'm implementing a single sign on module for Gemini, but to do it i need to pull the username and password from the person who is logged into DNN and throw it into a URL string to pass into Gemini.

I need to get the password in plain text so that i can encrypt it my self. The problem is when i go to

UserInfo.Membership.Password

the value is null???

there is how ever a value in UserInfo.Membership.Username.

 

I tried pulling the password straight from the aspnet_membership table, but i don't know how to decrypt it.

 

I would appreciate any help on retrieving passwords  that i can get.

When DNN creates the UserInfo object and thus fills it with data (by calling the AspNetSecurity.MembershipUser), it doesn't fill the Password property.  I'm not sure if this is a bug or a security feature.  But.....you can create your own AspNetSecurity.MembershipUser by calling "GetMembershipUser(user)" and then calling aspnetUser.GetPassword() to get a users password.

Hope this helps,
Josiah

I have the same problem. In my DNN3.2.2, all the functions in AspNetSecurity return a value of Nothing.

GetMembershipUser("host") returns nothing,  so aspnetUser is nothing

aspnetUser.GetPassword()  errors out.

Please someone gives some help here

I am having this exact same problem the same code that used to work in 4.0.2 now doesn't work with 4.3.4. CurrentUserInfo.Membership.Password returns a Null value. This is a show stopper for me because this is used as part of a username/password synchonization widget I've written that keeps our DNN portals in sync with a 3rd party integrated system that uses the same username/passwords. If the user updates their password we want to push that to the 3rd party site which has been working until now.

Please are there any workarounds for this!?!

This is also an issue for me I haven't yet been able to resolve.  Anyone else having any luck?
