  web.config inheritance Reply Contact Ihave an existing Website that is define at the root level and is compiled against .net 2.0.  We have several virtual directories defined that run just fine.  I have added a new virtual directory to test an updated application against .net 3.5. The web.config file for the update application is now conflicting against the root web.config in the <configSections> tag. Any suggestions on how I can not inherit from the root.
