Sorry for running you in a circle, but I think something just clicked here. The problem I have with making it the same is that the name of the cookie will be the same for all apps. I just want to have one login page, and be able to authenticate users for any other app I add, with different (app specific) cookies. Is that not possible using this? I was under the impression that simply including a name for a cookie in the protected apps web.config would pass that name along to the login page. This is obviously not correct. Is there a way to do that, that you know of? Thanks for all the help, Cathi!
