Calling ASP pages within ASP.NET site

Scenario : On a ASP.NET site, we have a login page (login.aspx).

Within login.aspx.cs based on the person who logs in, sometimes we need to redirect to an ASP page. Currently these ASP pages are on a different site (old ASP site) but I want to copy over 3 ASP pages within the ASP.NET site. Is it possible? Can I create a new virtual directory (or just directory) and place these ASP pages?

OR

Do I need to have these ASP pages stay where they are and from ASP.NET site (login.aspx.cs) I will need to issue Response.Redirect to that old ASP site?

Please suggest.

your .net application (I should say) IIS will still execute the asp classic pages, however asp.net and asp classic do not share session variables. I had to write two in between pages that converted asp.net session values down to asp classic and vice versa for an application I was working on with a similar situation.

I don't know if you can redirect to pages outside your own application/website, but you can copy the pages from the other website to your own website. From your login page, you can then redirect to the appropriate page in your own application/website. If you copy the pages, it might be a good idea to change the old namespace of the pages to a namespace suitable for your own application/website
