[Mono-list] Sharing Web.config among webapps/services

[Mariano Alarcon]

Thanks Joe,

I tried your suggestion, but it did not work. I created a Web.config 
file inside WebApp1 and added the following:

<appSettings file="../../Web.config">
    <add key="myKey" value="somePrivateValue" />
</appSettings>

I can read the value of "myKey" but not the the settings defined in 
../../Web.config. Do you mean that it works for you with IIS or mono?

If I point xsp to mainDir I can read both values but I still have the 
problem that I have to move all the dlls up to mainDir...
