In my web site at this path:
/ASP.NET/IBR, where all the actual content is (and is used when you
bring up the site), I found a web.config file that has this:
<system.web>
<customErrors defaultRedirect="Error.aspx" mode="RemoteOnly" />
<!-- -->
<!-- Login screen -->
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="LoginPage.aspx" requireSSL="false"
defaultUrl="Default.aspx"/>
</authentication>
I can't tell what path this tells the system to use for the
LoginPage.aspx if any. Also, because this is under an "Error" tag,
and I don't otherwise see a reference to Login anywhere, is that
someplace else? I don't see Login anywhere in the Default.aspx file.
Thanks.
