Anyone know if Snitz will run "out of the box" on a Load Balanced Server Farm? (i.e. Session Variables are not valid anymore) I see Snitz uses mainly cookies and I will continue to use the standard cookie mode... But I can't use session variables. |

The main reasons why this was not posted at Snitz and why I might not post the bugs I find directly at Snitz anymore are the ways "ruirib and HuwR" take pleasure to criticize just about anything I post and seem to resent the fact that I want to improve and correct Snitz which, I agree, serve as the original base for my own Forum.
These are some of the actions I find unacceptable: ruirib and HuwR take fun to Delete some of my topics, of my replies, locked or move my topic.

Since I send to HuwR a donation of $200 on December 22, 2006 this guy HuwR has never stop to pick on every thing I post on the Snitz Forum.
I have even received from HuwR and ruirib an e-mail threatening to ban me from Snitz Forum :

Yep, I admit so, but the admin login process will have to be changed, I guess, unless you remove the second authentication. I'm not sure either, but I think the Jump To drop-down also uses a session variable, or at least it used to do that... |

Thank you all for your replies.
I am in the middle of a massive site rewrite and I am trying to learn from my past mistakes. I am also trying to log into Snitz from a directory server (LDAP) - external to the website.
I have found an ASP routine to use the client's IP and login time to to generate a "Session" value within SQL Server. Since I am using ASP classic, I have to do it this way.
I am using ASPMaker for other pieces of my site and it is very Session Variable heavy, but I think I can modify it's code to achieve my SQL Server Session storage... The only remaining piece for me is the Snitz Forum.
Since the Forum code can get very hard to follow.... I either hoped it would work right out of the box, or I would have to find a single ASP server that isn't on a server farm for running my site. (As I am doing now....)
It appeared that in Snitz when using cookies, if a session was found to be empty - would attempt to retrieve the session value from the cookie...
As for the admin area... I can authenticate to that using a different method. I'll use the session SQL server storage for that piece, validating the user's login against a table of authorized admins.
p.s. If anyone has any advice on using an external authentication system (which once logged in, will generate the appropriate Snitz cookie) that will auto login the user to Snitz - please pass it on! :-)
Thanks!
