    Cookieless Authentication

My customer is very allergic to using cookies on their site...  They are
afraid of security settings making users nervous about visiting their site.
I know I can authenticate against an external db on a login page/user
control, but is there any way, maybe using session variables, to get around
sending cookies back and forth to the visitors/members?

Thanks,

Shaune

Hi Shaune,

if forms authentication needs to be used with MCMS cookies are required.
MCMS does not allow cookieless authentication.
If cookies are not an option the customer needs to use windows
authentication.

Cheers,
Stefan
