[JDEV] Question... - zero knowledge authentication

I have followed the below instructions, and yes it does work, I can now log 
in using any password :-) (what does a auth error reply look like? is there 
any documentation regarding these types of applications?).

However, I only get the <username> and <resource> tags, not a password. I 
need a password :-) 

How do I have to deviate from the below instructions to get the password as 
well?

Kind regards,
Dennis
