Author Using login credentials from a database.

I am a developer not an administrator and want to ask you
guys for ideas.

I need to control access to my web site via login
information in a database on the server.

The only way I see to do this is to use an authenication
scheme that doesn't require a user login (either
anonymous or certificates mapped to a user) to establish
the IIS login. Then, I would have to handle the
application's login though my own web page and server
code. Is there another way that I should consider?

Also, can you point me to scripts I could use to
automatically map those certificates in an install?

You can also use an ISAPI filter to handle your own login scheme.
