IMergeSynchronizationAgent.PublisherPassword

Remarks

When possible, use Windows Authentication.

When it is possible, we recommend that users enter security credentials at run time. If you must store credentials, use the cryptographic services provided by the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Stored passwords that are used to connect to the Publisher are never returned. Accessing this property will generate a PasswordWriteOnlyException exception.

This property is used only when PublisherSecurityMode is set to Standard.
