Allow anonymous access only

[Guest]

Is it possible to allow only anonymous users access to the contents of a
folder, rather than all users?

Hi,

if by means of forms authentication it should be <allow users="?" /> in the
web.config

Well, if you're not prompting them for a username and password, and
you're not talking about integrated authentication on an
Intranet...isn't that anonymous?

Teemu that backwards for umeet.
This is the correct web.config to deny anominous users.
<deny users="?">

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Good Luck

only anonymous ;-)
