Hi,

FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(Username Textbox.Text,
NotPublicCheckBox.Checked);

Msg.Text = "Login failed. Please check your user name and

Hi Max,

Nahid has given you a typical code snippet on how to programmatically do
the membership user validation and FormsAuthentication Login operations.

Actually, for the FormsAuthentication and User validation in ASP.NET 2.0,
it consists of two parts:

1. Use membership API to validate the user's username/password credentials

2. All FormsAuthentication API to logon(generate and set authentication
ticket/cookie).

Here are some further articles introducing the model of ASP.NET
formsauthentication and membership service and how they work together:
