I have an application database and an aspnetdb database (generated from the ASP.Net 2.0 framework). I have restored both database from production onto my development environment but I am unable to log on with any of the users credentials that work on production.

So my question is is there anything that ties the aspnetdb database generated by ASP>NET 2.0 Framework to a specific machine?

If anyone has ever restored an aspnetdb database from one machine to another successfully please can they shed light on the variables that need to be the same in order to access all the previous users.

Many Thanks!

Sure I have checked the connection string and double checked users and roles which I can confirm is working by being able to create new users on the development environment and log in with those credentials. 

The problem is I am unable to logon with any of the user credentials I use on the live environment. This I feel is related to the difference in the machine.config files on both machines. If anyone knows a variable I should look for in the machine.config then I could make sure they are the same in both environments i.e both machines.
