Question on Microsoft Services Manager

Hi,

I am using .net passport for an asp.net website. To use the passport, the application has to be registered at the Microsoft Services Manager website.

At the site, the passport service is selected. Then details like domain name,
Default Return URL, Expire Cookie URL, Logout URL and a few other URLs have to be provided.

Does the URLs have to be webpages which are already hosted on IIS and are made public on the Internet already?

Can the URLs just be directory paths of local asp.net webpages? e.g C:\My Documents and Settings\Test.aspx

Of course it has to be the hosted URL. I don't think it's necessary for the pages to be explicitly hosted on a server the moment you register. You just need to own the URLs and have the passport authentication mechanism enabled in the application so that you can use the passport service.
