i have found tons of tutorials to make simple login pages in asp.net but none outline the process, saying what happens. its usually a jumble of code.
can someone say step by step what hapens, like , whats checked first , the config file or the database ? i just need a simple step 1, step 2....not looking for code or anything. thanks all
 
i think 4guysfromrolla has a good article, but look at this site as well:

I know you need keep userid/pwds either in database or in webconfig. I think if it's in webconfig, it can be encrypted. In database, you need to have a table to hold userids/pwds. Look at Hash encryption. 4guysfromrolla has a good article on it as well.
