Re: How to Change MinRequiredNonAlphanumericCharacters in AspNetSqlPro

Hi,

look at the <membership> element in machine.config - you can configure that there machine wide - otherwise copy the config element to your local web.config.

I have just started with ASP.NET 2.0 using VS.NET 2005 with SQL 2005.
I have installed the aspnetdb and I am trying to setup a Logon page
with a test user.  When I tried to create the test user in the WAT I
found that the password was not accepted because it did not contain a
non-alphanumeric character.  My users will resist using extremely
strong passwords.  Many will not understand the concept.  Therefore, I
need to set this to zero.  How can I do this?

I have a reference that points me to the application web.config file
but this seems to apply to a custom membership provider.  I do not
need to a custom provider.  I only want to avoid requiring
non-alphanumeric characters in passwords.  Later, I may want to setup
my own regular expression as well.

Thanks for any guidance on this.
