YAFLogo

I was able to install and use the ASP.NET Membership tables successfully. Now I need to have YAF as a separate DB that accesses the ASP.NET Membership tables from another DB for the site.

I want to keep this separation for an easier deployment when I push this configuration live.

MyWebsite accesses MyDB w/ ASP.NET Membership tables

YAF has YAFDB and accesses MyDB.Membership tables

Is there a way to configure this in the web.config for YAF or is something that I will have to customize the source to do?

If I need to customize the YAF source to access a separate database for the membership tables, where do I look to start making the updates?

TIA,

M.

You can kinks the tables through SQL Server Management Studio Express. The SQL Sever help doc's will tell you how to do this. Or you can go to ASP.NET  and watch a video in the how-To section of the web site.

You have to have SQL Server Express with Advance Tools installed to use SQL Server Management Studio Express.
