Users and authentication

[mrajanikrishna]

Hello friends,

I am new to dotNETand familier with classic ASP. I've one doubt
regarding users.
I am developing an application. In which i want to authenticate users
and logged in which is valid. I've read that ASP.NET authentication is
fast and secure.
Which is the best method for maintaining and authering users of my
application.
In cassic ASP, I used to store the details in database.
If we maintain ASP.NET authentication, we need to fix the userids and
passwords in the web.config file. If we want to add new users, how can
the end user does this?
thanx in advance.

If you are using 2.0, ~~and~~ you want to keep info in a database, then you
will implement your own version of the
MembershipProvider
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/f1kyba5e.aspx

This is an abstract class , where Microsoft provides you an implementation
if you want to use theirs.

However, if you have info in your own db, then you want to create your own
implementation.
