ASP.NET 2.0 SmartCard HttpModule + Role/Membership Support Coming Soon

This week I finally have had some time to take a look underneath the Membership and Roles infrastructure in ASP.NET 2.0 and have a significant update to the ASP.NET SmartCard HttpModule coming in the next couple weeks, as well as some necessary additions.

A preview of this update:

  1. SmartCard support under the System.Web.Security.Membership class
  2. SmartCard support under the System.Web.Security.Roles class
  3. Support for the SqlRoleProvider (with the SmartCardSqlRoleProvider)
  4. How to provide auto-enrollment and manual enrollment of Smart Card users into your application.

I'll also provide some behind the scences with the RolePrincipal Class and how it works with the SmartCardIdentity and SmartCardPrincipal classes...

Stay tuned!

Looking forward to your ASP.NET 2.0 implementation! If it's half as through as the 1.1 one you did, I'll be happy. Thanks for the posts!
