If I drop a System.Web.UI.WebControls.Login onto a page, should it redirect to the ReturnURL by default? Or do I have to set some config settings or write some code to make this work?

    Short answer: No.

    If you do not specify a value for the
    DestinationPageUrl property, the user
    will be redirected to the original
    page the user requested after
    successfully logging in.

    According to this blog post, it apparently also factors in whether the page with the login control is the LoginURL specified in web.config. It states:

    If page is not defined as Login page
    in configuration file, ReturnUrl
    parameter is ignored completely.
