Steve, In ASP.Net, it's further recommended that you set the secure attribute for the Forms Authentication cookie, using the requireSSL=true line on the <forms> element. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnpag2/html/paght000012.asp -Roshen.

Can anyone provide info, tips, etc. on how to mark Session IDs as secure in IIS 6.0? I've found quite a bit when it comes to 4/5.0 but nothing on 6 yet.
It works the same for IIS 6.0, the property AspKeepSessionIDSecure is still there. cd c:\ inetpub\ AdminScripts cscript adsutil.vbs set w3svc/1/AspKeepSessionIDSecure 1 ref: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q274149/ http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/0d49cbc8-10e1-4fa8-ba61-c34e524a3ae6.mspx ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This List Sponsored by: Cenzic Concerned about Web Application Security?
