forms authentication timeouts and session timeouts

What is the best way to set these timeouts?

Should both be the same and what will happen if they are different?

Thanks
Jason

I am trying to do some testing of my application with respect to timeouts (i.e. Session timeouts). I took the advice of somebody else in this newsgroup (I think) and set my forms authentication timeout to be one minute less than the session timeout, but I was still getting wierd things happen when a timeout would occur. Today I set the timeout value for forms authentication = "1" and for the session = "2" just to test. Low and behold,...

Hi, I have an asp.net web app whereby I authenticate the user with Forms Authentication and store details about him in the session. I want to be able to catch an event when the users authentication period expires but I can't see any way to do this. Currently I have set the forms authentication expiry shorter than the session expiry because I don't want a user logged in if his session details are invalid. I was thinking of setting the...

Okay, so I finally figured out forms authenticaton, to a degree and I still have one question: If a user walks away from my application, and the cookie expires, and then he comes back, does forms authentication automatically force him back to my logon page? Or does the session just expire? Or does that depend on whether or not the cookie expires before the IIS session? Can someone help me out here?

Folks, This is sort of a continuation of my question with session timeouts but slightly different. I am using Forms authentication with the following code: FormsAuthenticationTicket lTicket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(lsUserID, true, 6000); // Hash the cookie for transport string lHash = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(lTicket);

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
