Overriding forms authentication in child folders...

[Stu]

Hi,

I have an app which uses form authentication to controll access to all
files.

How do I allow anonymous access to a specific folder?

I have a web.config file in the root of the child folder with this in it -
but it still asks for a login...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Thanks in advance,

Stuart

Try this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>
