Hi Group,

I'm trying to integrate a new site in with an old site. There are some
legacy pages that a user must log into. I would like to have an ASP.NET
1.1 page take user credentials in and then transfer that request to the
old log-in page, and then bow out of the process. The legacy application
is on the same server, different virtual directory. It's an ASP CLassic
applcation. Can this be done? If the user failed to log-in, it's OK if
the legacy application is the one to tell them.

Thanks,
-dt

You could place the information in a cookie. Or there are a couple of
examples online that show how to pass session information (via a datbase)
between ASP and ASP.NET.

Thanks for the reply. But...

I think that's even more complicated than I was thinking. Is there not a
way to forward a request across to another virtual directory on the same
box? One is running ASP.NET, the other is ASP.
