Hi,

If I have a flash remoting application, which accesses .NET web services, how
do you control authentication? Do I have to write my own authentication back
end, or is there some way to tie it in with .NET Forms Authentication?

Also, is there any way to let the Flash app 'see' the session variables from
the browser session?

Thanks,

Nick...

Yes, you'd perhaps write a facade C# class that made the calls to the web
service yourself and handled HTTP authentication challenges...

What if the Flash object was part of the same website that was the ASP.NET app.
In other words, the authentication cookie should be available right within the
page. Is there any easy way to just call the webservice directly from the flash
object and pass the authentication through directly?
