Hi All,

I'm running a couple instances of Dot Net Nuke, on a number of sites, and experiencing a problem at the moment. I want to be able to host a centralised database that each of my instances of DNN web sites can reference, with each of the sites accessing the data contained therein. However, withing the database, the user table is having trouble because the users contained on each of the sites all, logically, are contained in a user table, each containing their own unique user ID to the site that they are found in, however if i connect these users to the same database, say for instance to a catalogue database for products I'm selling, the database isn't going to like the fact that each of the sites are all seeding their user ID's at the value of 1.

I've tried changing the user ID seeding property to something like 50000, to make sure that the user ID's of the users on each of the sites are unique, unless of course i have more than 50000 users, here's to dreams;), but when i do this, my asp.net user within the database can no longer login. I don't understand why tho, the asp.net user shouldn't need a user ID, and even if it does, which i don't think it should, i haven't been able to find where to configure it.

Changing the seeding property back to 1 fixes the login issue, but i still have the User ID problem.

Anyone know where I might be goint wrong?

Any help will be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks
