Hey,

My client wants to implement some sort of dynamic location role-based
security rule for a web app. Normally, in my web.config, I define the
location authorization rules such as:

  <location path="WebForm.aspx">
        <system.web>
                <authorization><allow roles="Employee" /></authorization>
        </system.web>
 </location>

However, he wants to build an admin page that will keep track of pages and
role access in a database.

How can you implement this sort of 'dynmaic page authorization'? Obviously,
I can't define the rules in the web.config anymore.

Anybody have any ideas? Is it possible to add these rules at runtime?
  Thanks
