('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hi Doug,

I was wondering if you've been able to retrieve the password from AD when reversible encryption is enabled.

Everyone seems to agree that it's a dangerous setting to enable, but no-one can tell me how to get the actual password for my temporary workaround...

thanks!
Mathieu
