    Tying ASP.net self-registration form to SP log-in page

    Let me start by saying that I really don't know what I'm doing....  Confused

    I'm the jack-of-all-trades for my nonprofit & am implementing MOSS & WSS with the assistance of a consultant.  I've had no training & am trying to fumble along by going through some books.

    That said.... I read an article in an ASP.net book about how to allow visitors to create new user accounts instead of manually creating them all in the ASP web admin tool.  I followed the steps in Visual Web Developer Express & created a form called CreateAccount.aspx.  When I checked the form in my browser (//localhost:1823/SPusermgmt/createaccount.aspx), I was able to create a new account.

    Then I went to ASP.net Configuration (from Visual W.Dev) to see if the new account was there & it was (//localhost:1781.....)

    Now, I'm wondering how to "tie" that to my extranet/SP site, so users can self-register.  I also want to pre-approve their account before they can access the site.

    Any help is appreciated.  Please remember I'm a total beginner.  (And I apologize in advance, but I have cross-posted this because I have a feeling I'll need this explained to me in several different ways!!!)
