login control remember me doesn't work

[Guest]

I have a login page which requires all users to login everytime they visit,
the remember me feature isn't working. We all have cookies and js enabled.

Any suggestions on how to diagnose this?


My login aspx:

<asp:Login ID="Login1" runat="server" BackColor="#FFFFCC"
BorderColor="#5400A8" BorderPadding="4" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="1px"
Font-Names="Verdana,Arial" Font-Size="12px" ForeColor="#333333"
MembershipProvider="myMembershipProvider" PasswordRecoveryText="Can't
remember your password?" PasswordRecoveryUrl="PwdRecovery.aspx"
Height="150px" Width="245px"> <TitleTextStyle BackColor="#5400A8"
Font-Bold="True" Font-Size="14px" ForeColor="White" />
<InstructionTextStyle Font-Italic="True" ForeColor="#5400A8" />
<TextBoxStyle Font-Size="14px" />
<LoginButtonStyle Font-Names="Verdana" Font-Size="12px" ForeColor="#5400A8" />

My web config:

<authentication mode="Forms" >
<forms name="CCAuth"
loginUrl="myLogin.aspx"
timeout="20"
slidingExpiration="true"
cookieless="AutoDetect"
protection="All"
requireSSL="false"
enableCrossAppRedirects="false"
defaultUrl="default.asp"
path="/" />
</authentication>
<membership defaultProvider="myMembershipProvider">
<providers>
<add name="myMembershipProvider"
type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"
connectionStringName="myDB"
applicationName="/"
enablePasswordRetrieval="false"
enablePasswordReset="true"
requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"
requiresUniqueEmail="true"
passwordFormat="Hashed"
minRequiredPasswordLength="6"
minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="10" />
</providers>
</membership>

IIRC the timeout was changed thus rendering the 'remember
me' feature useless, so you need to set a timeout in your
web config to get it working again.

somthing like

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms timeout="43200"/>
</authentication>
