Retrieving Password Info

waynewil · 2004-02-17

Hi,

I've got a VS.Net application that I'm launching from within Navision running on SQL Server using database logins.

I'd like to launch the VS.Net under the same company/username/password as I'm running Navision. I can retrieve the company and user id data easily enough from within Navision, but any idea how I can retreive the unencrypted password?

I want to hack my way into all passwords in Navision and export them as a textfile. How do I do this?

Sounds about right to me 8)

I have to admit, I don't know if it is possible, but I don't think so.

Daniel,

Not sure what you're implying, but my requirement is as stated.

I don't believe in maintaining passwords anywhere other than in their encrypted state. I more wanted to extend the authentication already approved in one session to an external, helper app being used by the same session.

Savatage,

Thanks, but this isn't about lost passwords. I know the password. My Navision session "knows" the password I am logged in with. There is just no way to extend that to an external app. Thanks anyway.

Wayne, I was not implying anything, I was joking. Next time you see a smiley next to a remark (like this 8) ), you can be pretty sure the person is making a joke.
