After reading the documentation on WSE2.0, it seems you only need to return
the actual password as part of the AuthenticateToken method that you
override, and WSE2 will create a hash, and compare it with the one that was
passed. The documentation is quoted below :-

************************************
The SHA-1 hash of the password is sent in the SOAP message. This is the best
way to help protect the password. When a SOAP message is received with a
UsernameToken, WSE calls the AuthenticateToken method of the class deriving
from UsernameTokenManager that is registered in the configuration file. The
AuthenticateToken method returns a password or password equivalent, which
WSE creates a SHA-1 hash from. That SHA-1 hash is compared to the one in the
SOAP message and if they are identical, the hashed password is deemed valid.
************************************

Not much help I know but here are some links that may help.
