Changing the default login page for use with LoginStatus control

Sometimes it is desirable to have a different default login page. For example, a simple site where administrators login at http://foo.com/admin/Login.aspx versus the standard http:foo.com/Login.aspx. The LoginStatus control will hyperlink back to the default login page. To change this default login page, change the web.config file as follows:

<authentication mode="Forms" >
<forms loginUrl="~/admin/Login.aspx"></forms>
</authentication>
