    Same members in to solutions

    Hi!

    I'm currently working on a big project where an Umbraco instans will be one part and the outher part is going to be a regular "asp.net website".

    The two systems will share the same users. When I'm trying to solve the architecture I have (as I see it) two options:

    1. Put users / roles in Umbraco and validate against Umbraco in my webproject
    2. Put users / roles in a new custom database and write a new MembershipProvider/RoleProvider for Umbraco

    I notice that workning with the Umbraco API without having it "running inside umbraco" is not that easy. Adding new users is a complex proccess with lots och reads/writes to the database, so to have my new webproject create users directly to the database seams not as a good idea.

    I think I'm gonna create a custom database for users/roles and then write new providers for Umbraco. What do you guys think?

    Anyone who has haved the same challange?

    I'm gonna go with the second solution. Put the membsers in a custom database and write my own providers. I'll get back to let you know my experience.

    I'd do the same, not only do I think it will be easier, but it'll be a more portable solution, should you choose to use another CMS in the future.

    Yep I would go for your suggestion also. I''ve used this scenario  for a client and it works very well.
