    If any user has disabled cookies in their browsers, then you need to set the cookieless attribute to the value AutoDetect. Cookieless authentication enables you to use Forms Authentication to authenticate users even any when user has disabled cookies in their browsers. A user can be identified by a unique token added to a page’s URL, if cookieless authentication is enabled. When a user navigates from one page to another then the token is passed from page to page automatically and the user can be identified across multiple page requests.
    The code written in web.cofig file enables AutoDetect.
    < configuration>
    < system.web>
    < authentication mode=”Forms”>
    < forms cookieless=”AutoDetect”/>
    < /authentication>
    < /system.web>
    < /configuration>
