Re: Additional steps after authentication

Hi Alex,

I've had the very same problem in a web app some time ago. My solution
was to stay with FormsAuthentication but do not authenticate the user
until she completed the required checks; in that case, I stored a state
value in the user session, which basically would indicate that the user
has been already checked against username/password match but it has to
complete the aforementioned checks. Once the checks completed, I'd
authenticate the user within FormsAuthentication.
