    ARR + Forms Authentication

    Is there an easy way to configure Forms Authentication to be passed to the farm servers, the idea is to have the authentication happen at one server and another server will be access with those credentials, our application uses forms authentication, and when we hit another server directly on the farm by passes the form authentication, can anyone guide me on the most effective way to do this..

    Any help would be appreciated.. thank you

    Re: ARR + Forms Authentication

    This sounds more like a question about your application than ARR - you want the cookie that your application generates on successful forms authentication to be sharable across mutiple machines.  A quick search gave me multiple links on how to configure asp.net forms authentication (assuming that is what you are using) to create cookies shared across multiple applications/machines and forums.asp.net would probably be a good place to ask followup questions.

    You are right,, I though there was a way through IIS configuration to passthrough... with a help of some developer we were able to do it by using Machine Encryption key and so on... thanks
