trace.axd problem

[Rob Locher]

Greetings,

I am having a problem with tracing our ASP.NET application via
trace.axd. Whenever I point my browser at
http://mymachine/webapp/trace.axd, I get redirected to the same page
to which default.aspx redirects all users. We are using Forms
authentication, ASP.NET version 1.1, and Windows 2000. If I try to go
to http://mymachine/webapp/trace.axd before I log into the
application, I am redirected to the login page as if I had requested
one of the pages in the application. If I turn on pageOutput, then
the trace information displays at the bottom of the page just fine,
but pageOutput is unacceptable for production.

Any help would be most gratefully appreciated!

The machine.config file has been changed from the default such that
the element:

/configuration/configurationSections/sectionGroup[@name='system.web']
/section[@name='processModel']/configuration/configurationSections/
sectionGroup[@name='system.web']/section[@name='processModel']

has had the value of the 'AllowDefinition' attribute changed from
"MachineOnly" to "MachineToApplication". (What that does, I don't
know.)
