But on the other hand you could get the current password to display in plain
text by running this handy little piece of code:
<CFSET PASSWORD_KEY = "4p0L@r1$">
<cfregistry action="GET"
branch="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server
"
entry="AdminPassword" variable="adminpassword" type="String">
<cfregistry action="GET"
branch="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server
"
entry="StudioPassword" variable="studiopassword" type="String">
<cfoutput><b>Admin Password:</b>
#evaluate("cfusion_Decrypt(adminpassword, PASSWORD_KEY )")#</cfoutput><br>
<cfoutput><b>RDS Password:</b>
#evaluate("cfusion_Decrypt(studiopassword, PASSWORD_KEY )")#</cfoutput><br>
The PASSWORD_KEY is the weak encryption algorithm that Allaire uses to
protect the password. I know this worked in 4.5, not sure about 5.0
hope this helps
