Hi.

I'm having to make some custom code changes to the Login.ascx.cs file in 6.0.1 that were made to the same file in the VB version of it in 5.1.4 by another developer who left our company. In that version the following lines of code work:

VB syntax:
Using objAuthentication As New AuthenticationController()
Dim objUser As DNNUserInfo = objAuthentication.ManualLogon(UserName, txtPassword.Text, loginStatus, IPAddress)

In version 6.0.1  -  I can't place the AuthenticationController object in a C# using statement because the AuthenticationController type must be implicitly convertible to IDisposable and it's not. But these are the same two lines essentially:

C# syntax:
AuthenticationController objAuthentication = new AuthenticationController();
DNNUserInfo objUser = objAuthentication.ManualLogon(UserName, txtPassword.Text, loginStatus, IPAddress);

The problem is, I get a compile error on the "ManualLogon" method when I try to build the solution. Here is the error:

'DotNetNuke.Services.Authentication.AuthenticationController' does not contain a definition for 'ManualLogon' and no extension method 'ManualLogon' accepting a first argument of type 'DotNetNuke.Services.Authentication.AuthenticationController' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

I already have several using directives, including one for 'DotNetNuke.Services.Authentication'. But maybe I'm missing a certain DLL that is required. Can you tell me how to make this method work in C# for v.6.0.1?

Thank you.
