2 projects in same webroot

I've 2 projects in same WEbRoot. Each project has is own Subdirectory.
Project #1: /Journal/ '<-- Anonymous
/Journal/Admin/ ' <-- WebForm Authentication for each web
page

Project #2: /Recettes/ '<--- Anonymous
/Recettes/Admin/ '<--- WebForm Authentication for each web
page

I've a Web.Config file that work perfectly for Form authentication. But I
really don't know how to add security for my second project. I ask this
because the hosting server only allow ONE (1) web.Config file in webroot
folder... I show you my present Web.Config file. The two project must have
distinct login page and if possible distinct custom error page... They are
completly different in subject and design.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>

<system.web>
<pages validateRequest="false" />
<compilation defaultLanguage="vb" debug="true" />
<customErrors mode="On" defaultRedirect="Journal/Err.aspx">
<error statusCode="404" redirect="Journal/Err.aspx" />
<error statusCode="403" redirect="Journal/Err.aspx" />
</customErrors>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Journal/admin/Login.aspx" path="/">
</forms>
</authentication>
</system.web>
<location path="Journal/Admin">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users ="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>

</configuration>
The only thing I think is to add some kind of location to the main
<configuration> tag . I'm in the right direction?
Thanks
Francois

Yes I can but user will then be redirected to /Journal/Admin/login.aspx ...
I don't want this. The two project ARE different in design and purpose.
Users that try to access a page in /Recettes/Admin/ MUST be redirected to
/Recettes/Admin/Login.aspx

You can create two Web.Config files that are specifi to project and place
each under project#1 & #2 respectively. These specific Web.Config files will
overide the master under the webroot.

Hi,

As mentioned in my previous post, my webhosting only allow me ONE
web.Config file in webroot... So I can't use this solution

Ok, then the other poster's suggestion about web.config files in the
Recettes and Journal directories should work for you. Each one can specify
the <forms> element appropriate to itself.

You are probably aware that web.config files are hierarchical, but I thought
I'd mention it just in case. You can have one web.config in the web root,
and the only thing you'll need to change in the Recettes and Journal
web.config files is what's different from the web root web.config.

I'm sorry, that doesn't make sense. It's not _possible_ to have more than
one web.config in a single web root (directory), but I can't think of any
reason why a web hoster would prevent you from putting one in a
subdirectory. Perhaps you are misunderstanding their rule, or they are
misunderstanding web.config files?

No. I don't want more than one in webroot. I can only put ONE web.config
file. This file can only be in webroot.. My web hosting only permit this
only file...

Like I said, there's something wrong here. I don't understand why your web
hosting company would object to having a second web.config file, this one in
the /Recettes directory. Does the web hoster give a reason for this?

I believe they're wrong, and I just sent them an e-mail telling them so. In
particular, I don't know what could stop web.config from working in a
subdirectory, even if one actually _wanted_ to create such a restriction.

Try it and find out.
