Get the current client-user password

[Former Member]

Hello,

I implement the following code:

IWDClientUser user = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();

String name = user.getFirstName() + " " + user.getLastName();

that works without any problems.

But I need also the password of the current client-user.

Is it possible to get the password?

OK, and where do I get the hash-value?

I need it for a lock in, into another WebServer.

Patrick,

you mean a "login"? the hash-value won't help you, because as Dominik already mentioned: it's a <b>one-way</b> has, that means you can derive the hashcode from the password and not vice versa.

your solution would be e.g. to implement a saplogonticket authentication in your second web-server.

Patrick,

If you mean "login" rather then lock-in, then search SDN for help about setting SSO (Single Sign-On) between 2 servers.

Patrick,

no you can't. Passwords are usually not stored in clear text form but using a one way-hash from which the original password cannot be derived. The best you <b>might</b> be able to do is receiving this value.

What do you need a user's current password for?

Hi,

Keeping in consideration of security issue, i don't think you can read the password.
