Re: Exclude pages from authentication!

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi,

you can do that with <location> (path can either be single page or a
directory). Note that <location> element is placed right under
<configuration> element, not under the default <system.web> in standard
web.config

<location path="publicpage.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>

Hi all,

I have an app that mostly requires authentication.

However there are a couple of pages that don't require authentication..

What do i need in my web.config, to specify these pages don't require
authentication..
thus the user is not redirected to my default login url..when they
('pages') are requested.

Cheers,
Adam
