Dear All,
My requirement is, just login and display a new page. For that how much effort I am taking...Please read it and give me if any better solution is there.
1. First I created a new Page(Admin page) with two html text box and a login button in Dotnetnuke.
2. Then I call a javascript to call a dummy.aspx page(use it as a dummy page which contains a module to check the username and password in a database).
3.if login is correct from the dummy.aspx it will call a new page using response.redirect.

Is there any easy way to do this? if anyone know please help me..

I don't think I quite understand what you are trying to do. You want to allow people to login to your DNN site and then show them a specific page once they have logged in? You can do this by creating the page in DNN, make it visible only to REGISTERED USERS, then on the Admin/User Accounts page go to the User Settings option in the actions menu. Change the REDIRECT AFTER LOGIN value to be that newly created page.

Dear Chris,
I already have a running web application, currently clients are using it. I want to change this application to CMS. All data are in one Database called 'TEL'. Now I am  using a DNN with other database called 'DB_DNN'. I have created a DNN page for login, now I need to check the login with data in the old database 'TEL'. After successful login,need to show a specific page. How to do this? Please help me.

you need to create a custom authentication provider, which accesses your other app's login information. AFAIR Mitchel Sellers created a free generic database auth provider, which might be of help.

Dear Sebastian,
Now I am using querystring to send the username and password to the user control for login authentication. But its not safe. how can I send this data to user control? Is there any option for that? I am using the javascript to calling the next page, so I am not able to set the session variable also.
