Hide .aspx

[Rena]

Hi all,
I would like to know if there are any way to hide the xxxx.aspx on my
URL on server-side to avoid anonymous knowing i am using ASP. Net ?

Thanks a lot.

you could create a Http Handler for your own extension type (*.rena), check
out IHttpHandler interface.

If you mean you want to provent from anonymous access
your .NET pages, you can use following setting

<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
...
</authorization>

in Web.config file

you can map any extension to aspnet_isapi.dll, simply go to IIS, go to your
websites properties, under "ISAPI Filter" "ADD" a new extension and make it
point to aspnet_isapi.dll

this might be slightly useful:

achieve something else.

The easiest way is to configure IIS to use the ASP.Net ISAPI to process
files with the extension "xxx" (make one up). Then rename the extensions of
your pages to ".xxx" instead of ".aspx".

Woudln't the viewstate in the source markup pretty much give you away
regardless of the file extension?

Among other things. Asp .net pages are easily recognized if you view the
source.

 

[Karl Seguin]

Well, you could override the SaveViewState and LoadViewState methods of the
page to make it a lot less obvious...

dealing with those ctl0's might be tricky though.
