I have re-tested the issue using the current preview release of Mono 2.8.

If the config.Save() is covered inside of a try/ catch block, firefox displays
"Error: You must supply either a list of users or roles when creating an
AutorizationRule". However, I obviously specified a user. Apart from that, the
code runs under Windows XP/ IIS without any problems.

I am disappointed that Mono 2.8 still lacks support for basic ASP.NET security
features and/ or support for reading/ writing web.config files. People don't
need ASP.NET 4. What they really need is 100% support for ASP.NET 2! Please fix
this before releasing Mono 2.8. Without that, I will not be able to convert my
projects to Linux/ Mono. This is a must have feature!
