ASP.NET 2 Features for Users and Passwords and Tree Controls

[Siegfried Heintze]

I recall there is a new feature in ASP.NET 2 that makes the implementation
of forms based authorization and authentication a lot easier.

What is the name of this feature? Is it a feature of VS2005 or the framwork?
Assuming the latter: Is it easy to demonstrate without visual studio.net
2005? What might I google for to find more information about it -- like some
sample code.

What about tree controls that do call backs to the web server using SOAP
everytime I expand a branch. Is this another new feature of VS 2005 or the
..NET framework or IIS? What might I google for to find out more information
about this (lke some sample code that I might demonstrate it with).

Thanks,
Siegfried
