ASP.NET 2.0's Membership, Roles, and Profile\Client Server

[Jeff Jarrell]

I have an application that is mostly client-server but also will have web
modules as well.

I need the whole authentication, roles, etc. Pretty much exactly what the
asp.net 2.0 sql membership provider, provides.

Is it a reasonable concept to take the asp.net concept and bolt it onto the
client server apps? granted, there is no gui for the client server parts,
but that is ok. There is still the authentication and passwords and things
that are useful and time savings.

Thanks,
jeff

I've flirted with that idea myself.

I think its a good idea to implment your own version of the abstract class.

Make sure its a true business layer object, and then you're safe for the
winforms and web.

...

I think the biggest reason its "linked" to asp.net .. is that the built in
implmentation that microsoft provides, .... includes the web gui to add
users/roles.

This was all for "Rapid Development" in 2.0.
