in the subfolder called Client_D add a web.config file

then add in it the authorization section like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow roles="Special" />
            <deny users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</configuration> 

 

Where Special role is the role you want to enable for your client.s

hi, 

thanks amrElsehemy. it works!. when i access client/clientD/default.aspx, i will
redirect to login page. 

but it only works on .aspx file. if i have any other type of file like .jpeg,
.kml file, i can automatically view/download the file without asking me the
password & not redirect me to login page. please help. tQ

Hi

Base on my understanding, I guess you mean protect all files on website(using
forms verification), not just the aspx files. Here is an article about the
"full content protection"

Hope it helps

thanks XiaoYong Dai. i follow the steps in that article and i will redirect to
login page after i click to my file .def.kml. 

but after i entered the correct username & password, i cannot view my
def.kml file. i get error msg :-

 " Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"

Most likely causes:

You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.


please help. i really need this to be solved. thanks.
