Retrieve userid and password

Typically the CF developer does not care what the password is. They just care that the person is authenticated on the network. It is very wise of your admin to not allow the password to be displayed, obviously.

Why do you need the actual password, rather than just knowing that the person is authenticated on the domain?

Is there another way to retrieve password from LDAP in CF when the authentication is off?

Authentication is not check. Our net admin will not allow it. I was hoping that there's another way. When I use #CGI.AUTH_USER#, the password is blank.

Assuming integrated authentication is checked, and the server is IIS, you can use CGI variables.

Put this on a page and see what it gives you: #CGI.AUTH_USER#

The one in Active Directory?
