A very cool feature of the ASP.NET 2.0 membership provider includes the
automatic "lockout" of users after repeated failed login attempts.

I have a scenario where we don't want this to happen, so how do I disable
the automatic lockout of users ?

Thanks

Don't see any obvious way to disable it. Maybe you could set
passwordAttemptWindow="0"?

Hi Jaans,

I agree with Chris that the default SqlMembershipProvider doesn't expose
the configuration to let us disable the account lockout. All the available
setting on the provider are in the public properties expoesd by the class:

#SqlMembershipProvider Properties
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8d54517e.aspx

Also, currently what we can configure on the default provider is enlarge
the login attempt count or rate through the

MaxInvalidPasswordAttempts and MaxInvalidPasswordAttempts property.

Hope this helps.
