web config file problem

Hello eveyone,
I have a web config like this below:-
<location path="finance.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="?"/>
<deny users="?"
roles="Security_Group"/>
</authorization>
<identity impersonate="true"/>
</system.web>
</location>
I have a page finance.aspx which is on the location path above can i
construct it like that or i can only DEFINE FOLDERS ONLY.
For example i would like only certain security groups to be
authenticated to that page if they aren't in the Security group they
shoud be redirected and denied.
My other Question is regarding:-
<sessionState timeout="5"/>
i set timeout to 5 but it isn't working how does this work I WANT MY
PAGE TO EXPIRE after "5" minutes.
How can i do that?
Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks

<allow roles="Security_Group"/>
To deny access to all users:
<deny users="*"/>
To deny access to anonymous users:
<deny users="?"/>
Your web.config file could look like:
<authorization>
<allow roles="Security_Group"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>

That doesn't make sense. <deny /> has no effect in this case.

Yes, you can use <location /> to restrict access to specific pages.

Page expirations and session timeouts are two completly different things.
Page expiration is a caching option.
TimeSpan expiration = new TimeSpan(0, 5, 0);
Response.Cache.SetMaxAge(expiration); // for HTTP 1.1 clients
Response.Cache.SetExpires(DateTime.Now.Add(expiration)); // for HTTP 1.0
clients
/* If you have Response.CacheControl set to "public", apply this one as
well:
Response.Cache.SetProxyMaxAge(expiration);
*/

Yes, you can define particular files, not only directories using <location>
element
look here for more info :

as for the second question .. hmm .. its strange ... maybe try to use
standard <sessionState> entry created by VS.NET ... :
<sessionState
mode="InProc"
stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424"
sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;user id=sa;password="
cookieless="false"
timeout="5"
/>
HTH
btw, long time since last mail .. :) .. how are you doing .. ? .. let me
hear from you .. :)

what i need i think its a session timeouts.
Which i'm using like:-
<sessionState
mode="InProc"
stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424"
sqlConnectionString="data
source=127.0.0.1;Trusted_Connection=yes"
cookieless="false"
timeout="20"
/>
I want my page to be active for like 20mins and after that redirected to
a page to inform the users that the session is over .
Thanks

You could do a redirect in javascript after so many minutes...
