there are some samples out there on the net just showing what the default providers already do: Using an SQL DB as the source. They even concentrate on the SQL stuff, instead on the MembershipProvider implementation.
So here we go, a very simple example:
First create a new class that inherits from the abstract MembershipProvider class.
public class MyMembershipProvider :
System.Web.Security.MembershipProvider
public override void Initialize(string name,
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection config)
{
//base.Initialize(name, config);
//read you config settings and
//do whatever you need here
}
If you connect to some database init your db settings here, or read your web service settings if you plan to consume a web service later.
Next, we implement the ValidateUser method:
public override bool ValidateUser(string username,
string password)
{
if (username == "user" && password == "pass") return true;
return false;
}
This is just a sample to let you see how it works, of course you are going to implement here the validation to you backend, be it LDAP, a DB, web services or whatever.
The last thing is the property Name. As long as I did not implement this the login failed, throwing an exception.
public override string Name
{
get
{
return "SampleMembershipProvider";
}
}
Basically this is the name you refer to in the configuration.
Now on to the web.config. We add the MembershipProvider and declare that /images may be accessed by everyone (*), but /locked only by authenticated users. And we need to configure the authentication:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXAUTH"
loginUrl="~/Default.aspx"
protection="Validation"
timeout="999999"
/>
</authentication>
<membership defaultProvider="SampleMembershipProvider"
userIsOnlineTimeWindow="15">
<providers>
<add name="SampleMembershipProvider"
type="MyMembershipProvider"/>
</providers>
</membership>
</system.web>
<location path="images">
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true"/>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
<location path="locked">
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true"/>
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
Now we place the asp:Login control on our default.aspx page (we told web.config that this is the login page).
<asp:Login RememberMeSet="True" runat="server"
ID="logincontrol"
MembershipProvider="SampleMembershipProvider"
DestinationPageUrl="~/locked/securedpage.aspx">
</asp:Login>
Thats it. Have fun.
Open Cydia – search for “APN Editing” and install it. Now you will find Settings – General – Network – Cellular Data Network.

It might be that you carrier blocks some ip addresses, or dns names, so try with wifi!
If your carrier does not provide you with config settings for your iPhone, go to help.benm.at (from your iPhone) there you will find help,….
Our second trip to an amusement park this year. As my son starts with school this autumn we decided to travel to some places with him, before school takes over :-)
Compared to Disneyland – Legoland is much smaller – but – more relaxing, more fun, less people, better music, better service in restaurants, less expensive and have I mentioned more fun?
So if you kid is not the absolute Disney lover, check out Legoland!
