Passing a Session Variable via a URL (ASP.Net)

I have an aspx page, which is a "User Log-In" area. I want to pass the userid to another page which is linked from the aspx page.

the link I have looks something like this:

www.abcdefg.com/Home/Redirect/?authtkn=123456abcd=xxxx

I need the xxxx to be a session variable which in this case is userid.

**userid is not sensative information, this is simply to redirect the user to another page for specified information.

Any thoughts on how to pass a session variable to a URL, or if this can be done. The example www.abcdefg.com is a different domain (on a different server) from the original aspx page.

You don’t need to pass a session variable via the url. You can just start session on the next page and have access to all your session variables! If you do want the variables up there so you can quickly get to different userids with just a quick url change, send userid to the url on your previous page with with $_GET[ ].

Think your question is how to maintain cross domain session or authentication. Check this link Maintaining Session State Across Domains, may give you some idea

Or this one How can I share a session across multiple subdomains?

Why not appending like this?

string.Format("www.abcdefg.com/Home/Redirect/?authtkn=123456abcd={0}", 
    Session["UserId"]);

if i understood you correctly.
