SQL setup for Session

Hi,

I have enabled MSSQL to hold the session info for my application running on
a web-farm.

In the old web.config file(upgrading from 1.1 to 2.0) there was a setting
for machinekey and decryption, how does this translate to .net 2.0 . Should I
just copy paste the old settings from web.config file for these?

Pls help.

Make sure all the servers in the web farm
use the same machinekey and decryption.

You can use the old values. As Juan has stated, make sure you use the same
on all machines if this is a web farm.
