I have dummy username and pasword to enter in linkedin. From an asp.net application, when the button is clicked i need to login automatically used the username and password in linkedIn.

How to do that? Thanks

A direct (server to server) login is not possible. It wouldn't be nice to ask your users for their LinkedIn account and password.

You can implement OAuth between you (consumer) and LinkedIn (provider) and let the user log directly to LinkedIn. More info about this on:
