Hi,

Can a anonymous user have password ?

I have created a user and set password. Now I want to create that user as anonymous.

don't know if this is what you want, but why don't you create a user having name "anonymous"? and then set a password for it

if you are going by the dictionary meaning of anonymous, such a user does not have an identity, and hence does not have a password.
