Out of the box?  In the page data behind the scenes or in the  
config.php file.

Options exist for PmWiki to use .htpasswd, MySQL/PostgreSQL, LDAP, etc.

More options are coming.

But in most methods the original password is no longer available.   
It's more secure that way.  The password is encrypted when you encode  
it.

In the config.php method, which is only reliable for site-wide  
passwords, it can be left plaintext.
