I just installed. Seems to be working great, and I was able to figure out all that I needed.
Is the user profile information in the DotNetNuke tables updated on every login?
Suppose I log on with external authentication, and then go to my user profile and change my password. I presume that it's changed inside of DotNetNuke. That has no effect, right?
Is there a way to prevent a user from trying to do this in DotNetNuke?
------
All in all, this has been a quite pleasant experience. Thanks! |

My subject doesn't make sense. Here's why ...
I started to write to ask for help, then the light went on ... even at this time of night! |

| There are different scripts - one is just for validating the logon. But if you set up all scripts, then changes to the profile will be replicated back to the external data source at the NEXT logon. |

Joe,
Yes, every login DNN is updated with the information from the external system.
Changing the password in DNN does NOT have any effect on the account, and will be reset upon next login. That is UNLESS you select the "Sync to External" database option, which updates DNN first, then after than any changes in DNN sync back to the external system.
Lastly about disabling edit in DNN. This can be done, only if you also do not want registration in DNN and can be done by setting the "User Page" in "Site Settings" to a dummy page. |
