Multiple Authentication Modes

[Gaurav Vaish]

Hi,

How can I accomplish multiple authentication modes in one application?

I have the following scenario:

- A company, X, has some employees
- Those on rolls have an AD account
- Those not, have an account that's managed in a separate DB

- I want AD (NTLM/Windows) authentication as well as Forms
authentication. How can I accomplish this?

Is it possible to create an httpModule and then... based on some
conditions, delegate the requests to the NTLM / Forms login-handlers?

I would like to expand this to allow multiple modes -- which may get
complex later (with a few more custom modes added in) ...
--

Happy Hacking,
