dasBlog - Password Challenge was null in ViewState

Was having trouble logging into my dasBlog and after a bit of searching around and finding this at the DasBlog forum and this, realized the problem might be with my web.config file.
And sure enough, found this in the web.config:

NOTE: If you want to run MULTIPLE dasBlogs on the SAME Domain Name include the path in each blog's Web.Config like path="/dasblog1" and path="/yoursite" as appropriate.

Made the necessary changes in my web.config and the blog is working fine again.

dasBlog and DiscountASP - "Sections must only appear once per config file."

Was trying to install dasBlog (a blogging tool) on this site. I copied all the contents of the 'dasblogce' folder as mentioned in the readme, but ran into a "Sections must only appear once per config file." error in my web.config.

The solution was simple enough, went to my hosting control panel (DiscountASP), to the Web Application tool menu and set up the recently copied folder a web application folder.
