I never heard of that being possible, but you can verify with TAC. Maybe you can get the config (backup) and parse through it, but I doubt it would show.

Best,

You see anything in these files of dir?

/etc/ppp/peers

AFAIK, the passwords, including PPPoE password, are not stored in the cleartext form. They are hashed instead. So the answer is no. However, you can re-type the password, if you know what is set on your ISP side for it.
