Programmatically Modify Value In Web.Config

Is this possible?

I have an app where we are using forms authentication and are allow
editing/changing of security role names. Since I have set permissions
with <locationtags in web.config (i.e. allow roles="Administrator"),
I will also need to modify the values there.

TIA,
JP

web config is just an xml file so you can read/alter/save it using the
normal xml namespaces. However note that doing so will cause your
application to be restarted.
