Hi, new to YAF, trying to install to my localhost (http://localhost/store/forum/) but cant figure out where to put the dbconn string in the web.config

I grabbed the same configuration string from my root web.config...

where exactly do I put this text?

open up yafnet.config and the answer is very apparent.

When I post FP:Mek in a topic, I'm leaving my footprint there so I can track it once I get into coding/supporting. (Yes I stole this off Ederon 🙂 )

Thx... another issue.

from what I understand, authtication cannot be done at the root and sub dir, which is where i have both of my web.config... so whats the solution? I tried moving the below tags (as is) from the sub to root web.config file but then it gave me an error saying cannot be more then 2 forms.
