Hi,

I am trying to login a valid user and then retrieve the users information, but gets null value according to the code below:

--------------------------------------------

IUser user; 

SecurityHandler.Instance.AuthenticateUser(LoginUnameBox.Text, LoginPasswBox.Text, out user); //user is ok with correct data

user = CommunitySystem.CurrentContext.DefaultSecurity.CurrentUser;  <----------- Current user is null.

I think you have to set the asp.net auth cookie and possibly refresh the page for it to work. If you use the aspnet Login control at least the first part will be handled automatically.
