We have our windows forms login set up and working good, well it works at
least, just now we need a logout button, so when you click on it, the user
will be logged out of the authentication, how would we do this? this is how
we are doing the login form

==[web config changes]=====
<authentication mode="Forms">

<forms loginUrl="/WebClient/SecurePages/logon.aspx" name="RSMNEmail"
timeout="20" path="/"></forms>

</authentication>

Hi Brian,

FormsAuthentication.SignOut() is what you need.
It deletes the authentication cookie.
