Hallo,
I noticed this strange behaviour.
I have an external db with users and passwords.
The user can login and everything works fine, but if the password is changed on the external database something strange happens:
1. the user can login correctly with the new password
2. when the user is logged in, the instruction Membership.GetUser().GetPassword() does not return the new password, but the old one.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Which version of the provider and which version of DotNetNuke are you using?

Also, how long is the password in the external system?

DNN version is 5.6.1, provider version is 3.1.0. The password is in the db since yesterday, and I tried several logo-off and log-in.
Thank you.

Paolo,

I will have to research this a bit more, the passwords are set via the DNN API every login.

Do you have any non-standard configuration for passwords on the portal?
