did you ever get this sorted out. Reason for asking is because I have seen
this in a site I am currently working on. On the server I can't get past the
login screeen. Yet while working on the site in VS.NET it allows me to
continue on. And at one point if I tried to access the site from the server
itself it would log me in, but that is no longer the case now. So I saw your
problem down below and was wondering if you had solved it or not.

I am working on ASP.NET project where I am using form authentication, it
seems to work fine on all OS including XP except on some XP machines in the
department, I have been told that these machines are ghosted, which mean
that they crashed in the past, so they installed XP on them. The
authentication is developed using custom ticket authentication.
Dim strRoles As String = AssignRoles(USRole)
FormsAuthentication.Initialize()
Dim ticket As FormsAuthenticationTicket = New
FormsAuthenticationTicket( _
1, _
USID.ToString, _
DateTime.Now, _
DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(30), _
True, _
strRoles)
Dim hash As String = FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(ticket)
Dim cookie1 As HttpCookie = New
HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName, hash)
cookie1.Expires = ticket.Expiration
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie1)
One time I changed the authentication persistent attribute from true to
false, it seemed to work for a while but now it is not working any more. I
noticed that after the user login, the authentication cookie was created,
however; it is lost after redirecting the user to another page. Also, it
seems to work fine if I use
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(Username, True)
However; I need to use Custom Authentication cookie. Any Ideas?
