Re: Custom RoleProvider question -- saving roles

it is cached in the memory of the browser - and will be gone when the user closes the browser window.

I would not use slidingExpiration here - this guarantees the you get updated role information every 30 min.

Dominick,

I changed the web.config as follows

<roleManager defaultProvider="MyRoleProvider" enabled="true"
cacheRolesInCookie="true"
cookieName=".ASPXROLES"
cookiePath="/"
cookieTimeout="30"
cookieRequireSSL="false"
cookieSlidingExpiration="true"
createPersistentCookie="false"
cookieProtection="All">
and you are right, it did not hit the database again, it just used the
data in the cookie.

If this cookie is not being written/stored on the user's machine,
then where is it being stored?

Thanks,

Burak
