Managing Users on my ASP.NET Application
-
Hi, I've deployed a web application to my client having set up a couple of user accounts from Visual Studio's (2005) ASP.NET (2.0) management tool. My client has deployed the application on a Windows XP Pro machine but can't now login. How can my client manage the ASP.NET users? I can't find anything in IIS to let my client manage the users from there. Is there something equivalent to the ASP.NET Web Application Administration tool? Thanks for any help offered :)

Did you set Security Setting in IIS ? You can Get this by Right Click on Virtal Directory ->Properties -> Directory Security

Thanks but that manages what type of authentication applies to the web site, Windows authentication, etc. What I need is to be able to manage the users I've created through Visual Studio's ASP.NET Web Site Administration Tool (WSAT). If I use the WSAT from Visual Studio I can create users and assign passwords from the Security tab. If I run my site from Visual Studio, I can log into the site using the users. If I then publish the site elsewhere, I can't. I therefore need to access the site's database to manage the users.

Just for further info: The problem is that I run my web application in debug on my XP Pro machine and I can logon to the web app using the settings I defined using the WSAT (web site administration tool). If I deploy the web application to another XP machine, I can't seem to login using the username I defined. I can't understand what's going on! Does there need to be some reference to the ASPNETDB.MDF file in web.config?
