Hello,
I am in the process of finalizing a Membership provider for AD (a bit more complete than the one provided in System.Web.Security). One option offered is to store Group-Role associations in the database. My question is "Can I safely store SID in the database?". Microsoft recommend using GUID, but it would be more efficient and simplify my code if I work with SID instead. The main reason is that I am using the property TokenGroups to get group memberships for a user, which return an array of SID. So, I then need to get the GUID for those SID which is kind of a bummer. As a side note, anyone knows the reason for putting MembershipProvider/RoleProvider in System.Web.Security ?? Why not System.Security ? Thanks!
