Why it does not work when accessing from internet?

[Guest]

Hello, friends,

I am building a website hosted in my office. It uses Form Authentication.
When I tested in my local network, it worked fine: Asking me to login if I
tried non-public pages. After I typed my user name and password, it directed
me to the page I wanted.

However, if a person tried to use it through internet, e.g., a machine from
our client, it stays in Login.aspx page, even after correct user name and
password were entered.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot.

Firewall somewhere?

 

[Guest]

can you talk more details? I am not familiar with firewall. Actually, we have
a DSL box, should I do anything on its configuration?

If you only got a DSL box you are ok, I thought that could be something like
a firewall after the DSL box that blocks cookies.Run a trace, post the link
to test it

Cheers
