Hi,

I implemented a custom membership provider in ASP.net MVC, and can't figure out how to make the username non case-sensitive at signin. So, for example, "Solomon" could log in, but "solomon" could not.

My implementation is very bare bones. I basically just wrote code for ValidateUser(), and Change Password().

Thanks for the help!
