all my users are setup associated to the application of "DotNetNuke" wasnt a problem until 4.5 now they need to be associated to their individual portals so two portals can have a 'bob' user if they want. I thought the DNN team set it up so the PortalID would be attached to the applicationName in the web.config so you wouldnt have this conflict. Thats what it sounded like the DotNetNukeMembership.pdf doc was saying that came with 4.4

am i missunderstanding how this works?

help, and thank you.

allow me to clarify, under my current install, 4.0.2 of DNN all the users are associated to the proper ApplicaitonID , which is their portal, apparently during the upgrade to 4.5.1 they are all being converted to the DotNetNuke applicationID from the webconfig. I dont understand why this is the case i thought they were able to add the portalID as the suffix to the applicaiton name as describe in the white paper, quote:

"The Membership provider has a concept of ApplicationName which can be used to
partition data for different applications or sites. In the original API implementation, the
ApplicationName value had to be stored as a static value in the web.config file. This
model locks down the ApplicationName to a single data store per IIS account – a model
which does not support the multi-portal requirements of DotNetNuke.
In depth discussions of this issue revealed no viable workarounds to the multi-portal
dilemma and as a result, Microsoft logged a Design Change Request ( DCR ) in their
system to have the ApplicationName feature modified so that it can be specified
dynamically per request ( this requires that the ApplicationName property be threadsafe,
etc… ). The DCR went through various review committees and was ultimately
approved for inclusion in Whidbey Beta 2. In addition, the logic was integrated into the
backported Membership provider for ASP.NET 1.1.
Once the ApplicationName was available for dynamic specification, it was used on a
request basis for identifying the current PortalID. The process involved adding the
PortalID as a suffix to the ApplicationName specified in the web.config ( ie. DotNetNuke-
0 ). The prefix is important in the deployment scenario where you are using a central
Membership data store for multiple IIS accounts."

so if my requirement is to have a 'Bob' user for more than one portal with different passwords, that means i have to right my own custom membership provider? has anyone done that yet? i find it hard to believe that I am the only one with this requirement. we setup portals for different customers. any thoughts are helpful, even just to confirm my thinking on the way this is all working...
