I have an application that has a backoffice. This backoffice was isolated with the use of roles like this:
<location path="backoffice">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="admin"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
But now we have another type of role that needs access. The companyadmin role.
Can I just say?:
<location path="backoffice">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow roles="admin,companyadmin"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
Yes, exactly so (assuming you properly authenticated your users, and set their roles accordingly). Check the MSDN article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8d82143t(VS.71).aspx
