7 <h3>
8 Non-ASP.NET web servers</h3>
9 <p>
10 DotNetOpenId works without being a part of an ASP.NET web site.&nbsp; The
11 ASP.NET controls may not be used in this context, but the programmatic access to
12 the OpenIdProvider and OpenIdRelyingParty classes will work correctly if you
13 call the method overloads that do not require a current ASP.NET context.&nbsp;
14 The xml doc comments indicate which methods require an ASP.NET context and which
15 methods may be used without one.</p>
16 <h3>
17 Proxy servers</h3>
18 <p>
19 If your web servers need to use proxy servers to make outbound requests, you
20 will need to configure your .NET AppDomain to default to the proxy server you
21 require so that DotNetOpenId will use it.&nbsp;
22 </p>
23 <p>
24 To set the default web proxy, set the System.Net.WebRequest.DefaultWebProxy
25 property.</p>
