Hello,

I am currently trying to change the machine.config settings to secure our
trace.axd pages on our websites, but we also want to permit some users to
access the pages. The code is set up properly to do so. The problem is that
it works in our production environment but not in our development
environment. In our development environment we have 2 Windows 2000 server
domain controllers and in our production environment it is 2 Windows 2003
server domain controllers. I do not really know what the problem is (or even
if it is a domain controller setting). The only error message I can find in
the event logs is that it's either a bad user name or password (which it is
not). If anyone knows anything about this, or has seen this problem before
it any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

I do not understand why you are changing the machine.config settings because
machine.config is specific to your machine. There will be a separate
machine.config file in the other machine as well, which will have its own
configuration settings.

Instead of machine.config, you should use application specific config file,
app.config or web.config, as the app type may be, and override the config
section that you want modified.

with regards,

J.V.
