FormsAuthentication

[Gerry]

Is it possible to generate a FormsAuth Cookie outside a ASPX Context? Thanks, Gerry. Gerry.

Can I ask why do you want to do that? If you set authentication to windows mode it won't set it in Contex,but I don't know where it set it in this case.

I'm attempting to simulate FormsAuthentication in IIS 5 with classic asp. I wanted to call into .Net to issue/re-issue cookies and do all the encyption for me. Is this possible. Thanks. Gerry.

Why? If you can call .net for the authentication why can't you use it to begin with?

We provide Security for a number of business areas and there developers currently have no intention to use .net but we provide a portal into there systems through our security system. We want to provide a .net solution for new customers and hopefully let our existing customers leverage .net through, issue/reissue FormsAuth cookies. We did use SiteServer but this is unsupported.
