Hi,
In Web.config I'm using
<authentication mode="Forms">
      <forms name="NoLimitEnginAuth" loginUrl="login.aspx" protection="All" path="/" />
</authentication>

and in a Web User Control is
<A href='Login.aspx?URL="Catalog.aspx"'>

This works and gets to the Login.aspx page, in which a button click handler finally has:
                    FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(customer Id, RememberLogin.Checked);

I want the server to send the Catalog.aspx page, but it only looks for a default.aspx page which does not exist.

MS help says "RedirectFromLoginPage redirects, based on the contents of the URL key in the Query String, or to Default.aspx ..... "

What am I doing wrong? How can the user be redirected to the Catalog.aspx page from the Login.aspx page using Forms Authentication?

You don't need to explicitly create URL's to the login page. If a user is not authenticated, .net will redirect them to the login page automatically and generate the right query string parameter name for you. But either way you do it the right parameter name is "ReturnUrl".
