I'm currently at the Macromedia Max Developer Conference in California and
was impressed by vendor's InterAct User Authentication system which
bascially allows one to smash together a 'Remember Me' User Authentication
and login system. It took 10 minutes!!

Now, I know that asp.net does allow some great forms authentication...but is
there a way to quickly smash out a user authent. system with 'remember me'
check box as an option?

I have read:
http://www.codeguru.com/Csharp/Csharp/cs_misc/security/article.php/c8585/
And: http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/custom_authentication.asp

But, there is no 'clear' example of how to do the 'remember me'
application...additionally, I suspect there is some form of pre-built
authentication system I can tap into in ASP.net.

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks
Jason

the remember me is implemented with a non-expiring cookie. if you are using
forms authenication, a remember me should be a 1 minute edit. add the
checkbox,  add the cookie after an authenication (if checked else clear),
check for the cookie at start. note: you store a userid in the cookie
