Very simple forms authentication

[Mondeo]

How can I use forms authentication in its most basic form, I just want a simple login system for a very basic site.

 

Ideally i'm trying to do something like this

 

 

' Login button click

Dim username as string = "myusername"

Dim password as string = "mypassword"

 

If txtUsername.text = username And txtPassword.text = password Then

User.IsAuthenticated = True

Response.Redirect "privatearea/main.aspx"

Else

label1.text = "Access Denied"

End If

 

How can I do it?

Thanks for that, theres a very basic tutorial on there simply using a boolean session value to set if the user is authenticated or not. I think that would do fine for this job.
