Page Permission Caching issue Started By Jasbir Maan We are experiencing an unusual problem in our production environment where changes(page permissions) made on one server are not being reflected on another server for a period of 15-20 hours. It is possible that the changes are only taking effect after the application pool is restarted or some other action is taken. I am wondering if there might be a configuration setting which can solve this, restart application solves it but we can not do it after every changes. Thanks	10	997	4	8/28/2024 6:37 AM by Jasbir Maan

Password hashing method, unclear how it works, trying to replicate Started By Adam K Dean Hi all, I'm working with a project that is using DNN v. 09.11.02 (0). As part of the project I need to be able to support the existing users by implementing in Node.js the same password hashing algorithm that is used by DNN. It is configured with a SqlMembershipProvider specifying hashed passwords, and in the machineKey tag it specifies SHA1. I've done quite a bit of exploration, which you can see on my StackOverflow cross-post: https://stackoverflow.com...nt138924164_78793875 But essen...	5	1117	4	7/26/2024 2:33 AM by Adam K Dean
