I removed add security related settings from the web.config and it worked as
expected . Then I added the forms authentication and credentials directing
it to a login.aspx page that should direct it to a default.aspx but instead
I get an error message stating
Default Membership Provider must be specified
Its like it thinks its using the old provider. I'm don't know where its
getting this from
This is what I have in web.config
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Login.aspx">
<credentials>
<user name="joe" password="Smith" />
<user name="azam" password="hello" />
</credentials>
</forms>
</authentication>

I got it, the login control is looking for the provider. I removed that and
replaced with some text boxes and forms auth.

You should post this kind of questions in the ASP.net NG.
