    Default Forms Authentication using Folders

    Hi I wish to use Forms Authentication and have read the C# demo at
    Microsoft (Does anyone know of a good VB Demo?) and I need to know if I
    can protect seperate folders in an application or even seperate files.

    IE some files/folders will need authentication and some wont.

    I cant find any examples to configure the web config?

    Or do I need to create a seperate application folder? If this is the
    case can I manage it all from the same solution view??

    Thx Daren

    Default Re: Forms Authentication using Folders

    There really shouldn't be any coding involved, it is all done in web.config using the <location> tags, either put folders/files or both.
