    copied!<p>building an application and I have had some trouble with the PasswordRecovery utility. I am using the ASP.NET built in Configuration Tool. My issue is that I cannot use the provided PasswordRecovery control because I do not have an SMTP server setup and don't know how to do so.</p> <p>I have tried to customize the control to allow me to display the users password inside a label after a succesful password recovery. Here is my code so far:</p> <pre><code>protected void PasswordRecovery1_SendingMail(object sender, MailMessageEventArgs e) { e.Cancel = true; MembershipUser user; user = Membership.GetUser(PasswordRecovery1.UserName); label1.Text = user.GetPassword(); } </code></pre> <p>here is the error I recieve:</p> <pre><code>This Membership Provider has not been configured to support password retrieval. </code></pre> <p>now I did some research on this error and came across something odd. The ASP.NET tool did not add any type of Membership Provider to my web.config file. Also when I try to test the database through the configuration tool here is what I get:</p> <pre><code>Could not establish a connection to the database. If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider. </code></pre> <p>Can anybody help me to access the user's password after a successful password recovery? If it is easy to get the SMTP going I may attempt that, but I think it would be easier to just show the users password on the label?</p> <p>Thanks In Advance.</p>
