I configured the authentication module correctly as far as I can tell.

When I put a user in an AD group, a page that was dependent on the group was visible.

I tried removing the user from the group.

The only way I can get the page to be hidden is to log the user out and delete their cookie file.

When the user logs in after that, the page is hidden as expected.

So it seems that AD group changes are only applied after a user logs out.

Any ideas what I have configured incorrectly?

 

Thanks

It's going to take some time. We're back to the cookie I mentioned in your other post. Take a look at this item from the provider... http://dnnauthad.codeplex.com/workite.... Until the cookie expires any changes aren't going to take effect. So... in the case you mentioned above if you'd waited an hour the page would then be hidden. It's the same way with Windows. If you add/remove a user from a group changes don't take effect until they either log off their computer or wait awhile (not sure how often Windows reauthenticates a user to the domain but it isn't within minutes).

I thought I deleted the cookie and it still wouldn't reread the group membership.I had to actually logout.Does that sound right?I'll test more on monday....

I bumped the cookie timeout to 1 minute to test. Everything seemed to work as expected. Don't know if the site needed the weekend of rest or if I did, but it seems a lot better than Friday.
Thanks for your words of wisdom.
