How can I retrieve the user's password?

Hi all,

I'm trying to know the password of the user who has logged in... (the 
username is already known thanks to method "getUserPrincipal" from 
PortletRequest object)
But I don't know how to do it or even if it's possible to retrieve it.

Can anyone give me some advice?

Thanks in advance,
Enrique

Ok, thanks.

I'll think about another possible solution... =)

With the default configuration you cannot, its one way encryption.
You can change your Spring configuration to use two way encryption,  
but that will not help you recover existing passwords.
