Would like to try Spooky Login but... - 9/24/2001 20:37:00
Greetings,
I am looking for a simple login/access control for my site and was a bit intimidating by all of the features that the Spooky Login offers.I haven't much experience with ASP but would not mind learning. The first thing I need to understand is do I need to be hosting from my own server to use Spooky Login?
(My current site is hosted by an ISP on WindowsNT and I edit and update my site directly via Frontpage2000) If not, I assume that once I purchase and download Spooky Login, I am ready to go once I log on to my site using Frontpage? Lastly, how much tutorial information is included with the purchase of Spooky Login? Again, I don't mind learning as long as there is an ample amount of introduction information that gradually leads to advanced topics. Would greatly appreciate any feedback! Thanks, -Yale

Hi Yale,
Im biased, but someone else may chime in too ![]("http://www.frontpagewebmaster.com/ubb/smile.gif") The server should be sufficient. Most NT servers provide the minimum support as required.
I have only seen one NT5 server that didnt (for some extremely odd reason) Check that your server is IIS and not web site pro (FP > tools > web settings) Mostly the information you will get is the readme you see online. I am writting other tutorials as I get asked, and they are online. It can be as simple as importing the files (via frontpage) and opening the login page on your website. The only extra work required is to add the asp protection code to each asp page.
An asp page is simply an .htm page with a different file extension. One thing to note, is some frontpage form components dont work well as asp pages.
Others have workarounds. ------------------

I use it and like it a lot. It CAN be full of features and complexities if you want, but most of those things can be turned off if you don't require them - a simple check box in the Admin pages. Also, the post-sale support is nothing less than outstanding...

Hi Yale,I've got the spooky login and, as I've posted x times to this forum, it's the best $30 I've ever spent. On anything. It's simplicity itself to install and, as rdouglass points out, you won't get the kind of after sales support you get here, anywhere else! As long as your site host has the prerequisites (and a quick email to them will confirm that) you are laughing. I'd put in one of those winking icons if I knew how (shows you don't have to be too technical to do the spooky login!!) Can't recommend it highly enough.

or you can download the lite version which is free, to see if it suits your needs. Then, like I will be doing in the near future, purchase the full version, when you get bored of the simple login. Great programs Spooky!!
