Questions tagged [asp.net-membership]

ASP.NET membership gives you a built-in way to validate and store user credentials.

ASP.NET Membership works on top of forms-authentication and gives you:

  • Ability to create and store users and their passwords with little or no code.
  • Out-of-the-box support for changing, resetting, retrieving and encrypting passwords.
  • Choice of two storage locations - SQL Server and Active Directory.
  • Custom providers can be created to store users in custom stores
