Update from my side : 

" config.GetType().GetField("maxRequestLength",
                                BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.Public ); " 

is still failing giving null on Mono 2.0 .

But We have another call : " config.GetType().GetProperty("maxRequestLength",
                              BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.NonPublic ); "

This was also giving null with Mono2.0 , but when i added one more flag s.t.
it becomes :  " config.GetType().GetProperty("maxRequestLength",
           BindingFlags.Instance|BindingFlags.NonPublic|BindingFlags.Public );
"
Then it started working. 

But my question is : Can i use this as workaround ? What are the potential
problems if i add one more BindingFlags to get it work ? Is there a way where
my old code with "GetField()" and "GetProperty()" will work ?  We are planning
to port our application on Mono 2.0 so this requires a quick resolution.
