I've never done a login to a website so please bear with me. What is the
best way to go about this? Do I put all of the pages in a subdirectory that
I want secured and then put a different web.config file in there to specify
Forms authentication and deny all users? I tried to do that, but then I get
this error:

Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as
allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error
can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application
in IIS.

So then I went into IIS and made that subdirectory a virtual directory. I
don't get that error, but no codebehind pages work then. I'm not sure why,
but then I get this error.

Parser Error
Description: An error occurred during the parsing of a resource required to
service this request. Please review the following specific parse error
details and modify your source file appropriately.

Parser Error Message: Could not load type 'realestate.members.WebForm2'.

Apparently the aspx page can't find the class in it's code-behind page. I
assume because it is it's own virtual directory and the path to the class
isn't correct. I've changed it to everything I could think of, but still no
go.

If anyone has any suggestions regarding this and possibly a good book that
deals with asp.net and ssl that would help, I would greatly appreciate it.
