cookieless Forms Authentication - please help...

I'm writing an ASP.NET 2.0 application using the new Membership
providor and I'm having trouble.
I have created the roles, logins, login controls, etc... and I can log

in to the site. Â*However, as soon as I'm successfully
authenticated, I 
click on a link and it challenges me for
credentials again! Â*Doesn't 
matter which links I click, they all do
it.
I'm also having trouble with cookies. Â*I want to use cookies, but I

can't get them to work in either IE7 or IE6. Â*Here is my

<authenticat ion> section from web.config:
<authenticati on mode="Forms"> 
<forms loginUrl="login .aspx"
defaultUrl="/default.aspx" 
name="secAut hCookie" cookieless="Use Uri"
Â* Â*protection="A ll" 
slidingExpir ation="true" timeout="90" path="/"
/> 
</authentication>
I've tried setting cookieless to all of it's possible values,

UseCookies, UseUri, AutoDetect, etc... and none of them are working.

Am I missing something? Â*Please help! Â*I've been stuck on this for
two 
days now!
Thanks!

Does your application use hardcoded urls back to the webserver? Or
javascript location changes you've written yourself?

In that case you need to make sure that these calls copy the
authentication token into the uri before redirecting.

I experimented/researched cookieless sessions and tried it on my website. I expected the switch to cookieless sessions to be transparent but this isn' t the case at all: 1) Forms based authentication doesn't work I read that the Whidbey release will support this and you can make it work today: http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/cookieless.asp Still, it's a showstopper for most websites

I have a question about cookies & browser permissions and turning off cookies when creating a web site (cookieless mode in web.config). I have a web site that of course uses Session variables.

Anyway, when searching about it, I found out that by setting cookieless = true the session cookie is embedded into the URL sent...

Is cookieless forms authentication supported in asp.net 1.0? I have a website that must be cookieless, and thought that it would be a no brainer to add forms authentication. Logging in to the site is OK, but when the session expires and I call FormsAuthentication.signout() in the Session_End sub, the new session that begins on the next page refresh has the same ID as the old session ID, and I am not redirected to the login page (can still...

I'm building an ASPNET2 website which uses forms authentication but does not use the Microsoft-supplied membership providers (mostly because I don't want to create my own provider at this point, and the supplied stuff comes with a lot of baggage I don't want/need). In ASPNET1.1 what I would do was something like the following, after authenticating the user on the login form: FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userInfo.UserID, false); ...

I have a website (ASPNET2) which uses cookieless authentication. <img> tags on restricted-access aspx pages appear to need the URL credential fragment (i.e., the long string that encodes the user's credentials) to be found...which is contrary to my understanding (under 1.1, at least) as to how resources are controlled. Example: This tag on a restricted-access aspx page: <img src="/data/somefile.gif"> Shows up as "not found" (i.e.,...

<authentication mode="Forms"> <forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="30" cookieless="AutoDetect" /> </authentication> Over here we can specify cookiless to be auto detect so it uses cookies if the client supports it or URL mangling(munging) if it doesnt.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
