2.0: ASP.NET Configuration

[R.A.M.]

Hello,
I used ASP.NET Configuration to create a user, but I don't like the
rules for password - "Password length minimum: 7. Non-alphanumeric
characters required: 1."
Can I change them? How?
Thank you very much for your answer(s)

You can change those values in your application's web.config :

<system.web>
<membership>
<providers>
<clear/>
<add name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
....snip...
minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="2"
minRequiredPasswordLength="12"
/>
</providers>
</membership>
</system.web>

Notice : I snipped off some properties in the "<add name... >" section,
so that the settings you are asking about would be clearly read.

You need to modify your web.config. Here is an example that I use.
(note the minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters setting)

....
<roleManager enabled="true"/>
<membership>
<providers>
<remove
name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"/>
<add
name="AspNetSqlMembershipProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider,Sy stem.Web,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"
connectionStringName="LocalSqlServer" enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"
applicationName="/xxxr" requiresUniqueEmail="false"
minRequiredPasswordLength="1" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
passwordFormat="Hashed" maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5"
passwordAttemptWindow="10" passwordStrengthRegularExpression=""/>
</providers>
</membership>
</system.web>
