groups and security??????

i have a web application on a windows 2000 server called SVR001

the sql server is in on that server too.

I am a user tom and i logon to a server called SVR888

there is a test user called test also on the server SVR888

there are two groups on the server SVR001 called Admins & Viewers

test is in Viewers
tom is in Admins

i want to allow the groups to use the system, so i don't have to keep adding new users to the web.config file, i can just add them to the approperate group.

Code:

---

<allow users="SVR001\SSDAdmins, SVR001\SSDViewers" />
<deny users="*" />

---

but i can't log in.

is this beacuse i login as
user: tom
pasword: *********
domain: SVR888

and tom is not set in web.config?????

????????

please help :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
