Re: Login problem

Well, You have to manually build the FormsAuthenticationTicket and then
redirect the user. Here is an article that you can look at.

Use either Forms Authentication or Basic Authentication. You can't "Set" a user as authenticated.

Let me try and clarify my question

If the user types in the url the Login.aspx file then enters the username and the password, clicks the login button and the form validates the values against values from the database

In case the values are correct and i want to send the user to another page, currently when i try doing it using the Response.Redirect method then if the destination page is in a protected folder it returns back to the login page because ASP.NET doesn't know that this user is authenticated

So all I need is another method that set the user as authenticated and then when i call the
Response.Redirect Method it will work

Of course if the user was automatically Redirected by the system to the login page then I can use the Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage method

Thank you for your help
Samuel
