I am not sure how to google this concept.
Basically, what I wanna do is to direct different users to different
pages. I do not have a whole lot users.
For example, if user name 'tomcat' logins successfully with the correct
password, I want to direct this guy to 'tomcat_page.as px'. And if the
user name 'jerrymouse' logins successfully with the right password, I
want to direct him to 'jerrymouse_pag e.aspx'.
In other words, I want to be able to do
If (txtUsername.Te xt = "tomcat") Then
Response.Redire ct("tomcat_page .aspx")
Else If (txtUsername.Te xt = "jerrymouse ") Then
Response.Redire ct("jerrymouse_ page.aspx")
End If
I think this would be a pretty easy task, but I am new to
authentication/authorization and have no clue.

Do you mean like this ?
Response.Redire ct(txtUsername. Text + "_page.aspx ")

Actually what you want to do (since the user has succesfully logged in)
is:
Response.Redire ct(User.Identit y.Name & "_page.aspx ")
You could also have a look at the RewritePath method if you want it
more fancy.
Thanks, but I am using form authentication like so:
<script runat="server">
Sub btnSubmit_Click (sender as object, e as eventargs)
If FormsAuthentica tion.Authentica te(txtUsername. text,
txtPassword.tex t) Then
FormsAuthentica tion.SetAuthCoo kie(txtUsername .text, true)
Response.Redire ct("wheretogo.a spx")
Else
lblMsg.Text = "Invalid username or password"
End If
End Sub
</script>
In other words, the user names and passwords are all set up in
web.config. They are authenticated as a group as shown in the code
above. So I have no means in the .Net VB code to check the individual
user name and password.
Should I use windows authentication instead?

But the problem is that the users are authenticated as a group. See my

Even if you set up the user names in the web.config file you can still
assign individual user names and passwords. The credentials element
holds a collection of user/password. So when you authenticate you can
check against this list and issue the proper authentication cookie.
That sounds great.
I don't have access to the web server right now, so I cannot test it.
So, you meant that I can do things like below?
Sub btnSubmit_Click (sender as object, e as eventargs)
If FormsAuthentica tion.Authentica te(txtUsername. text,
txtPassword.tex t) Then
If (txtUsername.Te xt = "tomcat") Then
FormsAuthentica tion.SetAuthCoo kie(txtUsername .text, true)

Else If (txtUsername.Te xt = "jerrymouse ") Then
FormsAuthentica tion.SetAuthCoo kie(txtUsername .text, true)
Response.Redire ct("jerrymouse_ page.aspx")
Else
lblMsg.Text = "Invalid username or password"
End If
End Sub

Are you going to hard-code these logic? Once you have new user, you need
change your code!
The better way is create a table in database or xml file, then lookup and
map to proper url. After that, you only need change in table.

That's a great point. Fortunately, I am not going to have a lot of new
users. So this silly logic would probably suffice.
But I am interested in learning to authenticate and authorize users
stored in a database.
Say, if I have a table T_User in my database that looks like this:
U_Username U_Firstname U_Lastname U_Passwd
tomcat George Bush abc123
jerrymouse Saddam Hussein 123abc
How do I authenticate these users since they are in the database? I
know how they can be authenticated and authorized in web.config, which
I just learned today. :)
Thanks.
