Hello everyone!
I have been recently tasked to create a single sign on beetwen two different sites. One is developed under asp.net and the other under classic asp. Problem is they have no integration point whatsoever. I need some guidance in how to achieve this, provided i'm a novice in both ASP.NET (little experience) AND classic ASP (totally new, plus i hate it). First step in order to make some progress is to allow the following:
So, my first obstacle is the method to pass the cookie. I cannot use IIS wildcard mapping and such. It needs to be done with code. I was trying to follow this article, which seems to be exactly what i need:
http://www.santry.com/Blog/tabid/90/ID/1156/Creating-a-Single-Sign-on-for-ASPNET-Application-and-Legacy-ASP-Application-Part-II.aspx
Though it's not clear to me how to implement that, mainly because i have never used an API. So, in a few words: some advice that could help me use what's described in the article or an alternate method would be highly appreciated.
Thank you.

I need some guidance in how to achieve this, provided i'm a novice in both ASP.NET (little experience) AND classic ASP (totally new, plus i hate it). First step in order to make some progress is to allow the following:
- Users input their credentials (username/password) in the ASP.NET system
- Once verified, a cookie holding that information is created
- Users click a redirection link
- The cookie is passed to the ASP web
- The ASP web check the credentials passed in the cookie and the user is logged in this system, and redirected to the home page
