Re: Custom Authentication

Any help appreciated!

Many thanks.

FYI, for anyone who was also stuck like i was.

The FormAuthentication class is the one that creates the encrypted ticket in
the cookie. Thus the following checks to see if a user is valid, if so it
"logs" them in by providing the secure cookie

if(Membership.ValidateUser("test", "test123"))
{ Forms.SetAuthCookie("test"); }

Finally, a user can be checked to be logged in on any page by
"User.Identity.IsAuthentication".

The following classes will be of use to anyone making there own
authentication systems on the back of the security model provided by ASP.NET
2.0

Membership
FormsAuthentication
FormsAuthenticationTicket

Cheers
