Getting password from TDatabase

I can't seem to get the users password after a sucessfull login via the
params of TDatabase component. I have the foloowing in TStrings of params:

user name=
password=

After loging in, all that is populated is the username. Why? Is this a
security issue? Is there a work around?

I am connecting to a Oracle 7 server via the native oracle drivers. This is
all under D3 client/server.

Thanks,
Kevin
