What are the ramifications of having multiple applications under the same domain? I am using IIS and ASP.NET 1.x.

say I have http://www.site.com setup as an application, uses Forms authentication and is its own VS project.

and I want to add http://site.com/other/ where the contents of "other" are a different project, different security, and in a different location on the server.

I am thinking of using a subdomain if there are negative implications to this (http://other.site.com)

If you have the ability to create multiple virtual directories you shouldn't have any negative consequences. However; if you don’t have that ability you’ll have quite a mess in your .config files (for the configuration of security etc.. ).
