Nice bash shell solution danmero.

Here is one using awk:
Code:
awk -F[.,=] '
   NF && $(NF-1) == "user" { usr=$NF}
   NF && $(NF-1) == "password" { print usr " "$NF } ' infile

For a disordered list i'll opt for:
Code:
awk -F[.=] '!NF{next}$(NF-1)=="user"{x=$NF;sub($(NF-1)"="$NF,y);a[$0]=x}$(NF-1)=="password"{x=$NF;sub($(NF-1)"="$NF,y);if(a[$0])b[$0]=x}a[$0] && b[$0]{print a[$0],b[$0]}' file

My solution missed a requirement:
=> for a belonging together pair for example "admin.user/admin.password" the preceding text (for example "text4") is always the same (the same for the accompanying "access user")

This update should address that:

Code:
awk -F[.,=] '
   NF && $(NF-1) == "user" { usr=$NF; sub("user=.*","");pre=$0}
   NF && $(NF-1) == "password" && pre &&
   substr($0,0,length(pre)) == pre { print usr " "$NF;pre = ""} ' infile
