Question about SetAuthCookie

Hi,

I am using Forms based authtication to authenticate users, I have a login
page which take user account and password then post them to a form that
queries the database, if succcessful I set the authentication cookie, here
is the code:

FormsAuthentica tion.SetAuthCoo kie(strEmail, False)
Respone.Redirec t("MainMenu.asp x")

This work when I use the URL with localhost but not my machine name. Say my
machine name is NC4000 and the web application name is timecard.

http://localhost/timecard works. Both Request.isAuthe nticated and
user.identity.i sauthenticated returns true.
http://nc4000/timecard does not work. Both Request.isAuthe nticated and
user.identity.i sauthenticated returns false.

I use the same browser on the same machine(my machine) to test both URLs.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in Advance

All We recently started writing a couple encrypted values to the user's cookie using FormsAuthentication.Encrypt. Such as: Dim tmpTicket1 As New FormsAuthenticationTicket(1, "TEST", Date.Now, Date.Now.AddMinutes(60), False, "Boom1") Dim tmpResults1 As String = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(tmpTicket1) Response.Cookies.Add(New HttpCookie("TEST", tmpResults1)) And then we are reading it like: Request.Cookies("TEST")

Hopefully someone seen this and knows best way around it. When using FormsAuthentication and using FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie, ASP.NET creates a cookie similar to the domain URL. For example, if the user navigates to www.domain.com and logs in, then the cookie is associated with www.domain.com. Even though the user is authentication to the domain, if a link on the site goes to domain.com (without the www), the user is prompted to...

Another developer and I have noticed that after upgrading to the ASP.NET 2.0 RTM release, when using: FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userName, true) That the cookie is no longer persisted, even though the flag is set to true in my call. This only started happening after upgrading from Beta 2 to RTM. Has anyone else seen this or does anyone else have a workaround? Thanks, Bill

Hello, I have a site protected by forms authentication, and when the user logs in, I do the following... FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(txtUsername.Text, chkRemember.Checked); where chkRemember is an <asp:CheckBox> control. If this is checked, then it should save the user's info in a cookie and log them in automatically next time.

I have a login page and after validating user credentials I set the FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(username,false); and then redirect the user to a different page. This works often but some times it doesn't work. I checked the cookies for the sessions when it fails and the resulting page shows .ASPXAUTH cookie missing. Whats going on? I have no clue :( Any help.
