Thanks! I was trying to get the password via the user's Membership data, not realizing that it was looking for the clear text, not the hashed value stored in the database.

tks a lot

You could also use the GetPassword() function instead of auto generating a new one.  Not sure if this is a big deal or not, but just FYI:

user.ChangePassword(user.GetPassword(), "NewPwHere")

Thanks a lot, great tip - I was just scratching my head how to change the password when it's stored as hashed.

thank you so much. U've kicked me out of stuck.

nice article

Yet another thanks for an elegant, simple solution!

easy and brilliance

Thanx

Great post, just what I was looking for.

My site requires a Question and Answer, so I can't get past the Reset Password step without it.  And, of course the Answer is hashed as well.

Any ideas?

I have the same problem as Richard has posted.

I need to have the Question And Answer set True.

I have tried to get around it and still could not figure it out.

Thanks,

I have received many comments and questions about how you can do what is described in this post when

Great stuff! :) Should put this on StackOverflow...

thanks

For those with requiresQuestionAndAnswer set to true, see this article for a workaround:

Nice tip. Was just wondering on how an administrator could change a user's password.

You've been kicked good ONE man!!! Works Perfect

I use this trick a lot, but what about validation? If the new password is not valid, the user cannot log on anymore until you give a valid one. Is there ny way to vlidate the password strenght before doing the ResetPassword?

MembershipUser user = Membership.GetUser();

string genPasswrd = user.ResetPassword();

//email user genPasswrd

Los muchas gracias.

Have to retrieve Password From sqlsever to asp.net

I was trying to use aspnet_Membership_setPassword to change ASP.NET password, the new password that I input was clear text. When the password had been changed. it didn't work. Do have to encrypt the new password before I change it?
