How to save user's information across the whole web site?

Hi Guys.
I have a question about which is the best way to store user info across the
whole website. Now I have 3 web servers and each server has enabled the web
garden (6 wps). now I want to save the current user's detail across the
whole website without using session. I am considering saving in
HttpContext.Cur rent.Items or NamedDataSlot in each thread. which one is more
reliable (or better) in this situation? Or any reference of the comparison
of these two?

Thank you.

Victor,
First off I would comment that "WebGarden" probably isn't the correct
setting for a mulit-proc box that is supposed to be participating in a web
farm (more than one machine hosting the application).

You didn't specify "what kind of" user information you want to persist, but
in a mutiple- machine scenario, where any given request could land on any one
of your machines, you really only have 2 options:

1) ASP.NET StateServer service running on one of the boxes, with all three
boxes pointing to it's IP address.
2) SQL Server Session State, with all three boxes talking to the same SQL
Server.

You can find out how to set these up very easily by reading the ASP.NET
documentation.

But first, I would take care to ensure that what you quote as "WebGarden" is
cleared up.

Peter

(cross posted - comp.databases.ms-access, microsoft.public.access) Hello folks - this is my first post here, after a short lurk. I have written an application in Access2002 for a friend's business which allows him to take orders, arrange deliveries and trace deliveries back in the event of subsequent complaints. It uses a handful of tables in a relational schema, with a few ancillary lookup tables, some forms, reports and VBA modules.

Hi! I'm wondering what it is that makes IE prompt users to save user name and password. I have a web site coded in C#/.Net and part of it is protected by means of a form. When I key in user name and password I'm not prompted to save this information. Lots of other web sites that I access give me this option. Can someone help me understand why I'm not asked by IE/Windows? Morten

I'm currently using ASP.NET with VS2003 and SQL Server 2003. The ASP.NET app i have made is running on IIS v6 and consists of a number of pages that allow the user to read information from the database into classes, which are used throughout the application. I have made class collections which, upon reading from the DB, create an instance of the class and store the DB values in there temporarily. My problem is that if user1 looks at...

Access 2003 I've been experiencing some problems with my "monster" database the last couple of days. I imported all objects into a new database yesterday, which pretty much stopped the crashing problems, but here's something weird: Whenever I copy an object (reports so far), I am able to open it and make changes, but when I try to save it (without closing), it appears to save (message box goes off), but it doesn't. Then, if I try to...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
