title: How to authenticate users entering Dynamic Data admin area in ASP.NET MVC site?
body: <p>I have an ASP.NET MVC 1.0 front-end site that is working well, and features as part of it, a Dynamic Data section that I'm using as the back-end admin area for the site. </p>
  
  <p>I haven't messed about too much with authentication yet, but this seems like quite a logical web-site design for any new .NET sites being put together these days. I'm hoping someone might have some advice to share on how to lockdown the Dynamic Data section of a site (Dynamic Data uses plain old ASPX pages) using Froms Authentication, while leaving the MVC front end components freely browsable.</p>
  
  <p>FYI - the site is hosted on Win2k3/IIS6.0, and the server does not have MVC installed, so I'm including the DLLs in the \bin directory and using the routing engine to append the .aspx suffx onto the controllers, so as IIS can understand the MVC parts of the site.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks...</p>
