Hi,

 I have created a web application in which i have two logins, for this I have two different login pages created, now my application is having one root web.config file where I can set the any one loginUrl, but what i can want it is, when user enters in the AREA1 then he should redirect to login page1 and when user enters in secure AREA2 then he should redirect to my second login page?

how should i do this?

any help to set or modify the loginUrl of form based authentication dynamically, is it possible or not?
 

Hi

Sorry but you can't specify multiple loginUrl in you web.config

What you should do is redirect the user to a specific login page using QueryString parameters

Then you can manually authenticate your user using the FormsAuthentication.Authenticate("name", "password"); method

Create a web.config inside the folders that contain each one of your areas, this way you will be overriding the settings of your root web.config. 

I don't think that this will work

But try it anyway, you never know...

Yes, it will won't work because to put form based authentication in inside web.config we need to set that folder as a virtual directory in IIS, is there any other way as I also want to keep track of the page from where i redirected to the login page.

 Hello Guyes,

Any  luck for this????

I got the same problem.

 Isn't there any solution for this problem?

If its the same app and the same DB why not use one login and user roles?

that is what user roles are for

for more info check out the security tutorials on this site

www.asp.net/learn/security

True, I have remaked the solution to one login.

 But I got one design for admin login and one for regular login?

Actually u have not understood the problem. Instead of having 2 login controls what u can have is one login control and u can have user roles. If the logged in user is defined as "admin" role then u can show all the pages which is under the admin folder. but all the regular users will have access to have normal files. Articles about "roles" would give u a better picture.

I solved my problem via XiaoYong Dai code example: http://forums.asp.net/p/1216582/2167336.aspx#2167336

Global.asax.cs:

1            protected void Application_AuthenticateRequest(object sender, EventArgs e)
2            {
3                if (!Request.IsAuthenticated)
4                {
5                    if (Request.RawUrl.Contains("admin"))
6                    {
7                        Response.Redirect("~/Admin/Login.aspx");
8                    } 
9                }
10           }
