We are having already developed site and database with us. Now we are transfering the site to the DNN. But in existing database we are having our own use table.

Actually we are having one seperate database say 'GMD' and in that we are having one user table say 'User' where already thoursands of users are created and the current portal which developed on .Net freamword 2.0 is also working on that. Currently the Authentication is working throught this user table. In DNN when we logged or create a new user, that will go at the DNN Database not to the 'GMD' database. Due to a lot many users are created at GMD's database, we want some way that we can authenticate the user via the GMD's User table instead of the DNN's database.

Can any one please tell me how we can have a login module in such a manner which will connect to our database.

Hi,

You can use the connection string parameter available to connect to a different database. You can refer to ListX (Page #203) or OWS documention for this. You can specify the connection string in the textbox provided in the query template or in the query action.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Sindura
