Sorry about that; not sure how it happened. I've reposted this in the "IIS7 - Extensibility" forum.

You are in the wrong forum. This forum is about feedback for the iis.net site itself.

As for your question, depends on how you want the caching to happen, do you want to base it off a cookie, client-ip, tcp/ip connection etc?

Caching authentication information in a custom HttpModule

Adduce — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 21:04:43 GMT

Hello all,

I have created a class that implements IHttpModule and is subscribed to the AuthenticateRequest event. So far, it seems to work well. However, I am in search of a way to cache the authentication information. As implemented, it re-authenticates the user with each request. I could manage state manually, but I would much rather leverage IIS or ASP.

Thanks in advance!
