Forms Auth fails after moving to another machine

The app is running fine on my development machine at work as well as
on our test deployment server. It's using the standard ASPNETDB.MDF in
the app_data folder and sqlexpress is up and running. I can attach the
file and look at the tables.

The login1.loggedIn event fires, so the authentication appears to be
working. But instead of going to the correct page, it just shows the
logon page again. Any idea about why it's failing is welcome.

Ok, the website configuration tool is failing to start, saying it has
timed out. It times out instantly. Something on the machine is fu'd so
I guess I try another machine.

You have SQL Server or SQL Express running also on the problem machine?
