title: web.config - how to allow specific IP regardsless of <deny users="*" />
body: <p>I would like to protect files in a directory with the following in my web.config - but I also want to make an exception, so that one specific IP can access the content without logging in.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;configuration&gt;
  &lt;system.web&gt;
      &lt;authorization&gt;
  
          &lt;allow roles="Role 1" /&gt;
          &lt;allow roles="Role 2" /&gt;
          &lt;deny users="*" /&gt;
      &lt;/authorization&gt;
  &lt;/system.web&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p></p>
  
  <p>How can that be done?</p>
