aspx_professional thread: Using FormsAuthentication to disallow same user logging into the system
Yes, I believe you are on the right track. I would store the session ID
(which is shorter than the Forms cookie) against a user's record in the
database when he/she logs on.
Clear that field when a user logs off. I would also program the
Session_End event handler in Global.asax.vb file to implicitly log the
user off when his/her session expires.
Hope this help.
