Override one attribute in machine.config file

I was wondering if it is possible to override just the tag attribute in machine.config?

More precisely, I want to set the domain attribute in the machine.config file as it is different from my production server and my development server.

I tried just adding the tag to the machine.config but alas it doesn't seem to be the effect.

in machine.config I added:

<authentication>
  <forms domain=".foo.com" />
</authenticaion>

EDIT:

Since web.config overrides machine.config, the question is, how do I not lose the domain attribute in the tag when the forms are also defined in the web.config?

You can override the values ​​of your machine.config by entering values ​​in the web.config. Web.config and machine.config will be merged at runtime. But web.config will override the configured values ​​in the web.config file.



Ok, if you don't use the authentication section of your web.config, your machine.config entry is used.
