When to use FormsAuthentica tionTicket()

Hi, guys,

After I use FormsAuthentica tion.SetAuthCoo kie() to anthenticate a user, I
don't think I need to create a new FormsAuthentica tionTicket(), right?

Then, at what situation, we should use ticket? Any reference papers?

Thanks.

The only time you'd need to work with the FormsAuthTicket is if you wanted
to manually issue the Form Auth Cookie. When you call FormsAuth.SetAu thCookie
it creates the ticket, encrypts it then issues that as the cookie. The main
reason you'd want to do this yourself is that the FormAuthTicket allows you
to put in some user-defined data inside of it. This is nice since FormAuth
does encryption and MAC protection on the ticket (so you don't have to).

Hi all, I am using Forms authentication with login.aspx page as below to issue a ticket, then send the cookie to the client such that next request from the client should bring the credential. It works perfectly with Internet Explorer. But if I use Windows Explorer to access the web site, the cookie is missing upon the subsequent request. Does not Windows Explorer also use IE component to access the web site?

Thanks in advance for any info... Using web services, I am authenticating users and returning a valid FormsAuthenticationTicket as a string, with an expiration of 20 minutes. This is all fine and good. However, I would like to extend the expiration each time the ticket is accessed. I found the FormsAuthentication.RenewTicketIfOld method, but it won't allow me to convert the string to a forms authentication ticket. Any ideas? Private...

If I did something like that: FormsAuthenticationTicket ticket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(ID, false, 20); then add the ticket encrypting it to the cookie collection, shouldn't the cookie be deleted for each new session of the application? Session isn't equal to start a new debug, leaving opened the browser while testing?
