Hey everyone,
Can we allow/deny access to a particular page to a particular user.
Please dont bother about the reason why this functionality is required. Question is, can we configure our application this way.

I have been asked this question many a times in interviews
And still Im not sure this can be done or not.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

If you want to specify page or full folder that don't need to be authenticated, use <location> tag in web.config.

For example

<location path="yourFoldername">
   <system.web>
      <authorization>
         <allow users="*" />
      </authorization>
   </system.web>
</location>

The <b>path </b>attribute can be used to identify a specific file or child directory to which unique configuration settings apply.
