How to use a custom Login Page (Not Windows Login Box) for Windows Authentication?

Question

Is there any way to use a custom Login Page (Not Windows Login Box) for Windows Authentication of SharePoint publishing sites?

Solution 1

If you want to use custom login page but still authenticate with Active Directory users take a look at these:

FormsAuthentication with Active Directory (C#)

FormsAuthentication with Active Directory (VB.NET)

Solution 2

This is possible and I just recently implemented a hybrid approach following this tutorial. It's not a short snippet of code and it is a little more complex than can be shown here.
