You have to use romaing profiles to be able to share the key between machines - this of course only works in domains..

Developing More Secure Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 Applications (http://www.microsoft.com/mspress/books/9989.asp)
I am using User Level DPAPI encryption in a C# .net 2.0 Application.
If i need to move the application to another machine how can i move
the encryption key over.
The encrypted data is stored in a database on another machine.
I was under the impression that as long as i use the same username and
password on another machine i would still be able to decrypt my data,
but when i tried it failed.
Is it possible to backup the user key and restore it?
