Just to remind myself, the list of claim types and their encodings are listed here at the bottom. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg481769.aspx Where for example: i:0#.w|contoso\scicoria ‘i’ = identity, could be ‘c’ for others # == SPClaimTypes...
The approach takes advantage of the SP 2010 OOB Session Token handler and FBA claims provider implementation that during a period of token lifetime, if there is activity during the period of time that can be defined as "EW" in the image in the...
This is to provide a little bit of explanation on the implementation of FBA authentication with SP 2010. There have been blog posts that indicate there are no sliding sessions, but with a little manipulation and understanding of some of the settings,...
There are really 2 ways to get a SPClaimProvider registered – 1 via a Farm Feature activation. The other is via PowerShell. However, the documentation on how to remove is not that clear. The following code will remove it based upon a TypeName...

During an installation issue, a client followed the TechNet article ( http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc298447.aspx ) and those instructions are misleading. It indicates to copy the “web.config” to the Layouts directory – what if fails to specify...
The industry it moving towards identity standards, and with the recent release of Windows Identity Foundation (fka Geneva), and the beta of SharePoint 2010, it’s important to take a look at the direction of how identity is being normalized into...
