Re: Anyone care to help explain forms authentication in 2.0?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

In reading up on 2.0's methods, I get really confused. I use IIS to set up
forms authentication. But changing info there doesn't seem to change
anything in my web config file. Where is this actually stored? How do I
deploy my app to another server if I have to set up forms authenticatino
via IIS? Can I still use the manual method from 1.1?

Apologies. I asked something that turned out to be relatively painless.

Just went through a tutorial on using the new authetnication controls. I
must say, I'm impressed! That was easy!

Follow up question...how does the built-in ASPNETDB.MDF file work? If I'm
working locally, no problem. To build and deploy the site, though, does
anything special have to be done? Do I just upload my files along with the
DB file? Can other apps access this same DB file easily?
