corbin Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 If you extract the data and look in the mysql.privs (or something similar table) you can see the usernames and encrypted passwords. But, no, you can't just find the passwords. Don't know what you're up to, but it doesn't sound legit to me.
