How to authenticate users using web.config ?..

Answer / babu reddy

if we are using form based authentication at that time in
the web.config
we can set the autentication mode to "form"

then we can specify the user name and password which we are
going to access.
if any one can access that application then you can specify
<allow users="*">
inside the authentication tags
