Karel,
 
In case you have opted for "Ipswitch WS_FTP Server" as User database, this information is held in the registry.  However, the passwords are encrypted there.  I'm pretty sure there may be a tool to decrypt them, but I don't know it.  BTW, it is not possible to make them visible with usual tools, which work with the asterisks password fields.  WS_FTP Server Manager does not retrieve the passwords back into this field, but fills it always with a dummy value of "X12Y34Z56"...
 
I would also be happy to have a tool for decryption.  If anyone has one, please let me know.
 
Regards,
Erich

Subject: [WS_FTP Forum] passwords in WS_FTP server (wsftp: addressed to exclusive sender for this address)

Greetings,
 
is there any way to see the passwords on existing FTP accounts on WS_FTP-server e. g. in the registry? I have a problem with some user accounts that I have to provide the passwords again and they are not documented.
 
Regards
Karel Baur
