ASP.NET <location path= and authentication mode

Question

Can anyone please tell me whether the <location path= works when we set <authentication mode= "None" /> ?

what do you mean by "works" - how do you expect the application to behave? — Brandon Montgomery

Yes. "works" mean whether the <location path=.. /> has any effect when we set the authentication mode to none. — Spock

It does.

Check this post: Authentification-None for one folder(page) when the project is under FormsAuthentifications which shares an example.

    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow users="*" />
        </authorization>

Thanks but my question is whether your code, authorize the users when we set the <authentication mode= "None" /> ???

if you don't want to authorize the user then just type "*" that will allow all user to access the form or folder.
