Hi I have done all the plumbing for a Forms Authentication system.

My user logs in, I chek password with ADO.NET to a database with 2
fields.

IE
enteredUsername = dbUsername
enteredPassword = dbPassword

so I get say

bolAutheticated = true

How do I manually authenticate this user for example

If bolAutheticated Then
    FormsAuthentication.???????
Else
    lblStatus.text = "Login Failed"
End IF

I have seen demos with Salt and Password etc, but I have an established
DB with no Encryption, we do not need it. I simply need DOT net to
authentiucate this user so they can access the resatricted directory I
have setup in Web.Config?

Please help!
