Can you utilize Windows Authentication (i.e. Windows 2003 Server) in your
DotNet application to avoid creating your password scheme. Are there any
examples.

If it's an ASP.NET app, then IIS handles that for you.
If you want to have the user log onto your app directly using an NT account
(regardless of the type of app), you can use the logonuser API.
Do a search in the .NET help files, and you'll see an example.
The token provided by the API can by used with the .NET WindowsIdentity and
WindowsPrincipal classes.

Hi Byron,

I think this is what you are looking for, not the easiest stuff in my
opinion.

System.Security Hierarchy

System.Security.Policy Hierarchy
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...f/html/frlrfsystemsecuritypolicyhierarchy.asp

System.Security.Permissions Hierarchy
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...l/frlrfsystemsecuritypermissionshierarchy.asp

System.Security.Cryptography Hierarchy

I hope this helps a little bit?
