Installing the IEE Forms Based Authentication Solution

patrikluca.blogspot.com — The CKS:Internet/Extranet Edition has released a pre-beta release of a Forms Based Authentication Solution. This set of great features adds some missing out-of-the box functionality in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. The solution can be downloaded at Codeplex. The functionality I like the most is: Ability for external users who authenticate themselves through forms based authentication to change their password through a web part. The web part is highly customizable in terms of error messages and labels. Ability for the SharePoint administrator to add external users who will authenticate through forms based authentication within the site settings of your site collection. There is no need to set up an extra website for user management, nor to do the administration of users directly in a database. read more...

.NET 2.0 FormsAuthentication Remember Me Challenge

xerratus.com — A few weeks ago, I posted a solution I came up with a way to utilize a remember me checkbox in .NET 2.0 that, when selected, pre-populated just the username in the username textbox during subsequent visits. The problem I found was that signing out of FormsAuthentication wiped out any and all cookies I had set during or prior to logging a user in. So, the simple act of looking at the cookie to see if the user wanted to be remembered became quite an ordeal. My solution was to set/get the cookie using JavaScript. There are some skeptics out there though. So, for them, I've created a very simple website solution that tries to set and get the remember me cookie as explained above. The challenge is to modify the solution so that it DOES work. read more...
