“...the latest DotNetNuke release contains support for AJAX and advanced client-side behaviors which developers can leverage in their modules. In addition, the site navigation information for pages and actions have been abstracted into proper providers, allowing for more extensibility and easier migration to the SiteMap capabilities of ASP.NET 2.0.“

“Native Windows Authentication and Active Directory support enables DotNetNuke to interface with the users and groups defined within an Intranet environment, providing authentication and authorization services linked to a centralized security control point.”
