Hi Gary,
From your description, you found that the "Login" control's "remember me"
setting doesn't work as expected(make the authentiation cookie
persisted),correct?
Based on my understanding, the Login Control's "RememberMe" property play
the same role as the second boolean parameter of the
FormsAuthentications.Authenticate(Or RedirectFromLoginPage) method. Here is
the diassembled code of the LoginControl from reflector:
========================
private void AttemptLogin()
{
if ((this.Page == null) || this.Page.IsValid)
{
LoginCancelEventArgs e = new LoginCancelEventArgs();
this.OnLoggingIn(e);
if (!e.Cancel)
{
AuthenticateEventArgs args2 = new AuthenticateEventArgs();
this.OnAuthenticate(args2);
if (args2.Authenticated)
{
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(this.UserNameInternal,
this.RememberMeSet);
this.OnLoggedIn(EventArgs.Empty);
this.Page.Response.Redirect(this.GetRedirectUrl(), false);
}
else
{
this.OnLoginError(EventArgs.Empty);
if (this.FailureAction ==
LoginFailureAction.RedirectToLoginPage)
{
FormsAuthentication.RedirectToLoginPage("loginfailure=1");
}
ITextControl failureTextLabel = (ITextControl)
this.TemplateContainer.FailureTextLabel;
if (failureTextLabel != null)
{
failureTextLabel.Text = this.FailureText;
}
}
}
}
}
==========================
Also, for the authenticaiton ticket(cookie)'s timeout, as far as I know,
the only configuration option is in the web.config file's
<authentication>/<forms>/@timeout attribute. This controls the cookie's
timeout (when you use persistent cookie).
=============
<authentication mode="Windows">
<forms
...............
timeout="30"
.................>
........
</forms>
<passport redirectUrl="internal" />
</authentication>
