And by the way in ur Web.Config why don't u do:-
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="appNameAuth" path="/" loginUrl="login.aspx"
protection="All" timeout="30">
<credentials passwordFormat="Clear">
<user name="jeff" password="test" />
<user name="mike" password="test" />
</credentials>
</forms>
</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
And then if u want to perform Auhtorization use the location PATH and specify
whch users can see access contents of a particular FOLDER!

Ok Justin so No authentication at al!!
Are u sure u have all the right settings?
First check to see whether u have Anonymous Auth checked in IIS.
Got to ur WebServer and right click on ur Virtual Directory of ur
Application >Go to Properties >Directory security TAB> On the Anonymouse
Access and Auth control
click EDIT and make sure u check Anonymous access!
Also make sure u have :- <identity impersonate="true" /> placed in ur
web.config
Try all that!
Let me know if it works for u..if not post ur Question.
