webconfig file - ASP.NET

Andrew

Hi all,

I have a question about the webconfig file, where it states the:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="logincookie" path="/"
loginUrl="UserLogin.aspx?Action=login" protection="All" timeout="180" />
</authentication>

I have a default.aspx file, which is the first page when the user hits the
server folder. The problem I am facing is that the user's webpage will
automatically be sent to the UserLogin.aspx page. How can I set up an aspx
first page that will NOT YET require user authentication ?

Right now I am circumventing this problem by using a .html page as my first
page, which will lead to the start-up aspx page.

TIA,
Andrew

should work, too.

Hi all,

I was just wondering, is it possible to put more than one location path code
module in the web.config file ? If not, then how do I add more than one page
to the location path ??

TIA,
Andrew

Yes you can:-
<location path="default1.aspx">

<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
or even a folder

<location path="FOLDER"> <system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location> Hope that helps
