Form Based Authentication in SharePoint

I was asked recently to setup a SharePoint site with Form Based Authentication. My first reaction was...can't be that hard no...
After viewing a couple of tutorials and blogs I realized how wrong I was.
But for every problem there is a solution...

So I found a very good tutorial written by Andrew Connell(who else...)
So for all of you who don't know how to do this I glady direct you to Andrew's post on how to setup Form Based Authentication.
