Who is logged in?

[palehorse]

Hello all,

I have been learning about Sessions and it is pretty exciting. What I can't figure out how to do is - keep a record of "who is logged in"

Let's say five people log into my webform. I want to have a separate page for an admin to log into and have the page display evey logged in user - along with a way to "kill" their session if, lets say, I just feel like doing so. Right now, I am more worried about how to be able to know every logged in user. Can somebody help me with that?

As for the "kill the user" function - if you know what I need to do - sent me some help on if if ya could.

Gratefully,

Scott

I keep banging on about asp.net 2 ut it is so much easier to do this type of stuff in .net 2. It is only in beta right now but i think it is worth you looking at it.
check this out http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/express/vwd/

The membership provider of .net 2 can help you with keeping track of who is currently logged in.

Pretty cool. Actually, really cool. I just read through it quickly and noticed many cool features that will make web application development much much easier and more powerful. For now, what I decided to do is just when a user logs in, have it create a table and insert the username in the respective field - then have a separate page just pull all the data from that table - which will just give me a list of all the users - what I can do is then run a delete statement and a session.abandon or something to kill their session - I know there is a more dynamic way of handling this - but it will work for now - on the other hand, I will be sure to upgrade to this .NET 2 another day
