I am in process of setting up my 1st MVC Web App. I know I need to provide a Forms Based Authentication model as well as I know I will be reusing it for multiple other internal web apps as well.
All the documentation for MVC 5 Authentication, which I believe is all based on OWIN stuff, have it "baked" into a single web app using EF Code First no less.
What I am trying is to have an another Web App that I strip everything out of except for the Account stuff and then try to "point" my web apps Authentication to that and have it return a "token", I'm guessing, of my Authenticated User and his/her "Roles".
Am I on the right track? Am I WAY over complicating this? I'm new to Web Development but this seems like a fairly reasonable and straightforward request. Dumbfounded that I can't find it anywhere.
