Q: 

Silverlight and .NET RIA Services - Managing Users

Hello,

I am building a Silverlight 3 application that uses .NET RIA Services. This application is hosted in an ASP.NET application that uses the default aspnet_Membership tables. My Silverlight application requires users to login. If they are a member of a certain role, I want to allow them to manage the application's users.

Currently, I can authenticate a user and see what roles they belong to. However, I cannot figure out how to do other tasks handled by the ASP.NET MembershipProvider. Things like creating users, resetting their password, etc.

How do I do these types of things through a Silverlight application that uses .NET RIA Services?

Thank you!

Correct me if I am wrong, but as I checked MembershipProvider, there are already methods for Creating Users, Resetting Password, Changing Passwords or Deleting Users

Or probably you wanted to ask something else or probably the question is incomplete?

Aww! I get it. This class defines the contract. The million dollar question is why don't they use an Interface in this case?

The MembershipProvider does have these methods. The problem is, they are not exposed through RIA Services. How do I expose these methods through RIA Services?

You are working on the client which consumes the service. The problem is now actually on the server side since they are not implemented or exposed.
