Hello Pony,
As for the Membership Provider setting, we can override it in our web
application's web.config file through the <membership> element. And by
default after you install the .net framework 2.0, the machine.config file
has predefined the default membership provider as SqlMembershipPr ovider,
and the default connectionstrin g use a local SQL Express data file (in
application's App_Data dir). e.g.
====in machine. config=========
............... ......
<membership>
<providers>
<add name="AspNetSql MembershipProvi der"
type="System.We b.Security.SqlM embershipProvid er, System.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0 , Culture=neutral , PublicKeyToken= b03f5f7f11d50a3 a"
connectionStrin gName="LocalSql Server" enablePasswordR etrieval="false "
enablePasswordR eset="true" requiresQuestio nAndAnswer="tru e"
applicationName ="/" requiresUniqueE mail="false" passwordFormat= "Hashed"
maxInvalidPassw ordAttempts="5" minRequiredPass wordLength="7"
minRequiredNona lphanumericChar acters="1" passwordAttempt Window="10"
passwordStrengt hRegularExpress ion="" />
</providers>
</membership>
............... .
=============== ====
And the following section demonstrate a simple customizating on the default
provider(in application's web.config)
e.g.
=============== ====
<membership>
<providers defaultProvider ="ModifiedSqlPr ovider">
<add name="ModifiedS qlProvider"
type="System.We b.Security.SqlM embershipProvid er, System.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0 , Culture=neutral , PublicKeyToken= b03f5f7f11d50a3 a"
<!-- customize certain attributes here.... -->
/>
</providers>
</membership>
=============== ===
Also, as for the "Club" starter kit, I've just downloaded and had a look
into it. It seems the "MemberInfo " data table is not used for
formasuthentica tion/membership , and the MembershipProvi der of this Club
starterkit web site is still the default SQL Provider which use the
"aspnetdb.m df" in App_Data folder, so we should not redirect it to other
database/tables.
Hope this helps. If you still have anything unclear on the above settings
or any other questions, please feel free to post here.
Regards,
Steven Cheng
