2 applications using membership provider, how to setup things in IIS?

[DotNetNewbie]

Hi,

I have one application that is a CMS that uses .NET membership.

Now on the same domain, I have to setup a ecommerce store.

I want the URLS to look like:

www.example.com <-- ecommerce application

www.example.com/articles/ <-- CMS Installed there


The CMS has the login page also, but I want things to work seamlessly
so when a user logs into either the ecommerce or CMS, they don't have
to login twice since I am using the .net membership provider.

Will I need to have both applications using the same database also?

Re: 2 applications using membership provider, how to setup things in IIS?

Membership runs from one database. Since CMS wants to be installed in the
same domain as ecommerce you won't have to use separate databases anyway
because there's a few viable options you'll be able to implement by using
Roles.
