Microsoft membership management, multiple instances in the same database.

Question

I have a database with the membership manager installed, is there a way to install another copy of the membership manager in the same database? Change the prefix to something else.

Answer 1

Use the application identifier in the .config file to differentiate between your applications. It's in the Membership Provider section. applicationName="MyApplication"

Answer 2

If this is for another application, you can change your application name in the web.config file to something else in your new app. The same tables/database are used but user information is separated.
