how to by-pass forms authentication in a subfolder

[Zeng]

Hello,

I have an application with forms authentication setting specified in the
web.config of the app root; so all users must login before they can access
any page within the app. Is there a way to have a subfolder with a page that
within the app that doesn't require user to login ?

For example, I would like to have this page [url]www.myapp.com/testing/check.aspx[/url]
within "testing" folder to open to public w/o request users to login, if it
has to be the whole folder "testing" must be open to public, that would be
fine - but just that folder.

Thank you very much in advance for your help...

Use the <location> element in the web.config to specify something like :-
<location path="/testing/check.aspx">
<system.web>
<authentication mode="None" />
</system.web>
</location>
