    I used the above configuration in a scenario where it was appropriate (i.e. passwordFormat=”Encrypted”). The following code was used to reset a user’s password with a specified new password (as oppposed to generating a new password), so that the cs rep can ask the user for a new password while on the phone and change it for them, without knowing the old password.

    A call to user.ChangePassword requires the current password to be passed:

    MembershipUser user = Membership.GetUser(userId);
user.ChangePassword(user.GetPassword(), newpw);

    user.Password() returns the current password in clear text.
