Best "login" method?

[Svein Erik Storkaas]

I am about to add security to a web project for the first time, and i'm
wondering what the easiest, yet a good way to do this?
The page is just for personal use, so it does not need to be "ultra" secure.

Is it ok just to store 'usrName' and 'psWrd' in an Access db, and manage it
from there? If so, how do i control if the user really IS authorized on all
the 'protected' pages?

Thanks!

Hi
Using forms authentication is perhaps best suited for a project like yours. Refer this link http://www.15seconds.com/issue/020220.htm for more details on how to implement forms authentication

For a more secure environment you might want to consider hashing the
passwords. See: http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/103002-1.aspx

Happy Programming!
