Virtual directory and Forms Authentication

[tascien]

I an application that i want to set up for two clients.

http://localhost/client1 <- virtual directory.

http://localhost/client2 <- virtual directory.

Now, i don't want these application to read each others information.

I did not see where, In the asp.net forms auth. where i can specify the
path.

1. if client1 sets FormsAuthentication.setCookie() auth. cookie, will
it overwrite client2's auth. cookie?

2. If client2 can read client1's cookies, can it decrypt it? or it's
just a meaningless string even if it it can access it?

3. What else should i know for virtual directories asp.net apps. that
share one domain?

Thanks.

Tascien,

You'll need to explicitly create the forms authentication cookie yourself,
then you can set the path.
