Hi

I was wondering if with forms authentication, it is possible to deny access to the files that are not of the .aspx type.

Thank you for your help

Dear Ali

You can very well do that with a little tweaking in IIS making asp.net to handle the type of files. then the authenticatio
would work well.

i assume you are asking for files like doc, ppt which are not handled by asp.net. we can very well do. i have done tha
for my site and it works pretty fine

can you elaborate so that if you need, can tell you the stepls

I forgot to mention that some users must have access to the files while others do not

thanks

others do not.

That should work fine. Just use <allow> and <deny> appropriately.
