  4. That seems to walk around the forms auth and cause a challenge-response from the server, which means I would have to add all the users in our system in the CP interface as well as in the membership db. And if I hit the cancel button, the page is still rendered without the formatting.

    Guess there is no way in discountasp.net to set how the doc types in IIS get rendered like the article says. That would be the ideal way to do it.
     
  5. I'll do some more research for you on this, it is important.
