Howdy,

I've been running a DNN 4.01 site for a few months now and have a rather annoying issue with login - namely, the
"Remember me" button doesn't work and users are consistently logged out after about 30 minutes. I've seen this feature work on many other DNN sites, but I'm totally stumped why it doesn't work for ours. Is there an easy fix?

We're having the problem too that people can't stay logged in.  How can I check if its setting a cookie?  Right now I have about 10 users complaining that with IE6, XP they have to log in each time they visit despite clearing their cookies and checking the remember login checkbox.

Anyone else have this problem?

Anyone have a solution?

Here's a thread where I ask users to post if they are getting logged out:

So far it doesnt seem to be related to a particular browser.  All the users claim to have javascript and cookies enabled.

Hello

I have exactly the same problem since 4.0.3. The 4.3.4 don't resolve the problem.
I have extended the longévity for the cookie but don't work too.

Just came across this post, as I just ran into the problem myself. It stems from how IIS and 2.0 framework deal with persistantant cookies. The trick to extending cookie life is to change the following in the web.config file:

<

<

</

What that will do is persist your cookie for almost a year (only if they click the Remember Me box). Also, it is sliding, so if the user logs in one time that year, it will reset their persistance clock. In my opinion, if they haven't been there for a year, they should have to log in again. Hope this helps someone.
