I've read that you can save a session state variable created by an ASP page
into a db so that the value of the session state variable can be read/used
by an ASP.NET webform.
Question: Let's say the session variable is called "UserIsAdmi n" and the
ASP page is the login page. When the person logs in as 'admin' it stores
the session variable as "True" in a db. How does the ASP.NET page that is
served up know whether the page requestor is the same user or a different
user? If "UserIsAdmi n" is set to True in the db, won't anyone be able to
get in as 'admin' because this db value has been set? Am I missing
something?

I think you are missing the fact you can't do it :-)
Now a db can share data between the two, but you aren't going to set/get it through the session object, you'll have to create your own object for that. Also, like you're stuck on, you'll need to set some indentifying information in the querystring/cookies to know who is who between platforms.

Thanks Raterus. I'll search online for some examples.

I'm having difficulty understanding Session state in ASP.Net. It's almost
embarrassing asking this as I've been using ASP since it was first released
& it really shouldn't be this hard to use - perhaps I'm just not very smart
or perhaps MS is making this too hard for us sql bunnies to understand - I
dunno, but I'd really appreciate someone explaining what I'm doing wrong
here & perhaps suggest a better approach..

I am calling an ASP.Net page from an ASP classic application but need

Hello;
I use in my web application FormsAuthentication. Also I use Session state
(InProc).
When a user logged in, I can read Session parameters. (For example
Session). Problem is that, when user close the browser window then
open a new browser, FormsAuthentication reads from cookie and user logs in.
Althought user logged in, session parameter is null.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
