I am not sure if this is a bug or something I am doing wrong.

I have set up a folder based multilingual site at www.whpva.org

When in site admin and I select the other sites, under the security tab you dont get the Main, LDAP, Open ID, and Windows Live tabs - which is what I expected, however the settings contained in those tabs for the main site are not applied to the other sites, ie you cant login using open id and you need an email address to log in even though that is turned off.

Am I missing Something ?

Thats what I expected to happen - However changing things in the parent site appear not to be cascading down to the child sites. I deleted one of the child sites and recreated it and that appeared to be more as I expected. I will see if I can narrow down what is happening

I have Related Sites mode enables in config.

If you look at http://www.whpva.org/Default.aspx you will see that there is no option to register and to sign on you need an email address

If you look at http://www.whpva.org/it/default.aspx you will see that there is the option to register and to sign on you can use a user id.

I am using related sites mode as I want a single log on as the multiple sites are for different languages, however as the setting changes appear not to be reflected into the subsites the only way to change anything is to delete the site and recreate it.

If you look at the first example you will see that I have RPX setup ok, the second example appears not to use the settings however and just gives the open id option. RPX appears to work across multiple domains so am not sure why it wouldnt work in a folder based site.

I agree "All sites need the same security settings if using related sites mode" . I am not looking for Custom Setting in a child site.

However - I would expect making a change in the parent site to also make a change in a subsite, you might want to for example turn of registrations for a while and I would want that reflected in all sites. Alternatively in the future a new security option may be introduced that IU want to turn on in the parent site and I would want this to be included in the subsites. At the moment, to make any changes would require you to delete the site and recreate it, this is not practical,

As far as I can see, new related sites simply get a read only copy of the security configuration in place when created rather than using the current main site security settings.
