Form based security

[Tom McGuinness]

Hi, I am trying to secure one directory using forms based security, but it
seems that it wont allow a

<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXCOOKIEDEMO" loginUrl="/tmc/family/login.aspx"
protection="All" timeout="30" path="/" />
</authentication>

within the directory (/tmc/family) that I am trying to secure.

tmc is the root directory of the site.

Has anyone any ideas?

Tom.

Jonas: OK. What's your question? Have you tried it?

Thanks both.
Well, i have tried and it "seemed" to be not working, because i was putting
the url the browser and it showed the file because it was the ie cache. if
i do the refresh, it will redirect to the login.

thanks

Though if he wants to have different permissions for different
subdirectories (or specific pages) in an ASP.NET application, he should
look at the <location> tag in web.config.

You should keep in mind that if you modify the Web.Config file the
application restarts (once current process is finished), this means you will
loose any Session State you may have. Just something to keep in mind...
