I am converting an ASP Website running Windows NT 4.0 to ASP.NET running
Windows 2000 on a different computer across the Internet. During this
process, both will be active and availble to users.
The ASP site A uses Basic Authentication and has the user enter a UserID and
Password that are Authenticated against a database.
The ASP.NET site N uses Forms Authentication and has the user enter a UserID
and Password that are Authenticated against a copy of the ASP's database.
At this point in time I am only concerned with the scenario as follows:
- User Logs in to Site A (ASP)
- Site A redirects the User to Site N (ASP.NET)
In this scenario, the User has to enter their UserID and Password a second
time when accessing Site N.
Can Site A programitically pass the credentials, UserID and Password, to
Site N so the user does not have to logon a second time with the same UserID
and Password without changing the authentication schemes of either site.
If so, what are my options?
Thanks,
Doug
