[AspNet2] users/roles/membership/profiles/etc

[Chris Farrell]

I posted this on another list and didn’t get any responses.  Here goes again…..   I’ve been reading and working on a practice project to figure out what challenges I will face moving Towards .net 2.0.    Current issue is trying to use the new roles and membership/users setup with existing data Stores.  The key issue I am confronting now is that the .net 2.0 model uses a GUID as the Identifier for each user.  All previous data stores use simple integers with the user key being Just an int identity.   I am certain this is going to be an issue for many others and am surprised I haven’t already Found a solution pre packaged for this.   -Am I going to have to write my own provider?? -Am I better off just not using the new model? -Can I just modify the existing setup to use an int instead of a GUID?  How much work would this be?  Could I just add an identity int column to the table and then handle the rest through profiles? -Any pre-made solutions for this? -Any workarounds for this?  -Comments??
