Hi april,

the password for users is stored into the database using an encription method, so you will not be able to find in a "clear" way the password.

You can verify it looking at the table alf_node_properties finding the{http://www.alfresco.org/model/user/1.0}password QName type for a node of type {http://www.alfresco.org/model/user/1.0}user.


Hope this could helps you.

All the best,

Sergio
