just wondering

[rodchar]

hey all,

i have a simple asp.net page that expects a session variable to be present
on Page_Load. if not it redirects to a restart page.

i made a settings change on iis to the virtual directory authentication
method page (Directory Security Tab/Authentication and access control Edit).
i checked digest authentication for windows domain servers.

here's where i don't understand what's going on. i leave the asp.net page up
til it times out. so, when i go to perform an event on the page i'm
presented with the Enter Network Password dialog. And so it never hits my
redirect page. can somone please tell me why this is?

thanks,
rodchar

you're saying that the session variable is still filled right? or that the
page.ispostback is not being triggered. if it's issue number one, you can
simply write some code to test it, for issue number you got something funky
going on somewhere else

When your session times out the connection is lost completely the web site
doesn't remember that you've still got a page open and will tread you just
the way it would as if you just made your first request.

Which involves authentication.
