ASP.NET Web Config Guide

A web configuration file is used to manage various settings that define a website such as database connections, caching settings, session states, error handling, and security. The configuration file is an XML file separate from application code. To create a web configuration file, a new text file is made and saved as webconfig.conf. The file is then added to the website created in Visual Studio.Net. Settings in the file can then be changed by opening it in a text editor. The sample code provided shows connection strings for two databases along with compilation and authentication settings.
