Machine Key Generator for Encrypted PasswordFormat in ASP.NET Membeship

Hello Techies,
   Here i found a MachineKey Generator ( generated in XML  tag ) , which generates your machine key that is used in applications.

Go to this URL : http://www.eggheadcafe.com/articles/GenerateMachineKey/GenerateMachineKey.aspx
Click on the button "Generate Me A Key!"

I found it when i was in need to change my PasswordFormat to "Encryted" in ASP.NET membeship.
So what you have to do is add / change the passwordFormat="Encrypted"/> and add the machine key in the tag. 

So , your web.config will have settings like this.

Asp.NET membership has "Hashed" Passwordformat by default but you have to change in web.config file for "Clear" and "Encrypted" formats. (remember both format names are case sensitive).


Thanks,
Happy coding
