Hi.

Could anyone explain to me what are the differences between a CustomIdentity
and a GenericIdentity, and CustomPrincipal and GenericPrincipal? I found
some information about the WindowsIdentity, WindowsPrincipal,
GenericIdentity and GenericPrincipal but nothing about the custom objects.

TIA,

Erik Cruz
