C) Change the ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool to 'know' that
we're now using a remote provider...


I believe the WSAT tool is only available locally.....I learnt this the hard
way.
Thus my opinion is that is is a hobbyist tool, and not worth the effort.


You probably don't want to hear this, but I'll give you the advice anyways.

Go here:

And take a hour or so ... and get the crappy Access Membership Provider
working.
Try not to just look at the code setup/config setup, but actually get it
working.

You'll learn the key items needed to swap out to a custom one.

...

Then approach the MySql version with that knowledge.
Once you get one working..the others seem easier.
I suggest the Access one becaue at least you have one that differs
signficantly from Sql Server...but is decently documented.

...

I did this (a year and half ago) and that little exercise still sits with
me....as I can swap out to a custom one quickly now.



This might help as well.

Later still and...

I believe a few steps are necessary and Im not sure of the order or
exactly how to go about them:

A) Create the DB schema on a (shared host) MySQL db... Does anybody
have the SQL already made?

B) Set up the asp project to have a reference to the correct provider
ie do something in web.config relating to <providers> and <connection
string>...

C) Change the ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool to 'know' that
we're now using a remote provider...

D) Any other mystical steps involving importing namespaces etc...

Any takers?
