Hello Peter

thanks for the quick reply.

I think I found the article you mean  
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnaspp/html/bucupro.asp).  
Is this functionality already supported by mono / xsp /mod_mono?

I had a quick look at SqlMembershipProvider.cs in mono-0.91 but there all  
functions threw the notimplementedexception. So I guess the answer is no.  
Or is the framework already in place to place in my own MembershipProvider?

Also from a quick glance on the document I am not sure how to integrate  
it. Do I still use the FormsAuthenticationModule or not?
