Getting access to IsActive property in Sitecore

Question

Within the Sitecore User Manager it is possible to either enable or disable specific users. I have searched a lot around the Internet to find a way to access this property programatically in C#, just as you can access the built-in property IsAdministrator like this:

Sitecore.Context.User.Profile.IsAdministrator

But I can't seem to find anything close to it!

So I would like to know if it is possible to access a property like IsActive.

Thaks for your help!

Assuming you are using the default providers, Sitecore just uses standard ASP.NET Membership. The Sitecore API doesn't appear to expose this property, but it's very easy to get at:

System.Web.Security.MembershipUser membershipuser = System.Web.Security.Membership.GetUser(username);

Now check membershipuser.IsLockedOut.

Assuming you are on a version 6.x installation, I believe that the Profile property is enumerable (and indexable using ["IsActive"]).

See the Security API Cookbook on SDN for more details: http://sdn.sitecore.net/upload/sitecore6/sc61keywords/security_api_cookbook_a4.pdf (chapter 3.3 for example).
