SSO into Sharepoint without password.

Question

I have  requirement wherein a User is logged into an existing Extranet with his credentials. I have abiility to pass the User's Identity as an encrypted HTTP header (but not the password). Can I achieve SSO into Sharepoint, in this scenario? All examples and documents talk about UserID & password usage. But its not truly an SSO if I am passing the password. It is not always possible to obtain the password in a complex Extranet.

TIA
