[RESOLVED] Can .net passport be used locally?

Hi,

I would like to use .net passport with an asp.net application. I have installed the passport SDK.

I came across a website that said that after installing the SDK, the developer has to create an application in the .NET Services Manager.

In other words, the developer must submit the application information to Microsoft using the Microsoft .NET Services Manager. This allows the ASP.NET application to access the Microsoft Passport servers. Particulars about the application has to be entered.

Is it possible to have .net passport functionality done locally, instead of using Microsoft's Passport servers?

All I need is just a .net passport user account which can access 2 different websites.

The page explaining passport can be found here:

Absolutely not.

You must pass through Microsoft's servers for authentication, that is the entire purpose of Passport.

ok, thanks for clearing the doubts :p
