No way, only its possible if you change the code to store the password in clear text, but really insecure practice.

Demian has the right answer, thanks Demian. smile

To store password in plain text (again, it's not recommended), you can add below parameter/value in iRedAdmin config file (settings.py):

STORE_PASSWORD_IN_PLAIN_TEXT = True

WARNING: Storing password in plain text is really bad.
