  <connectionStrings>
    <add name="my_sitemap_app_con_string" connectionString=
      "User Id=scott;Password=tiger;Data Source=Oracle"/>
  </connectionStrings>
  <system.web>
    <!-- Enable and customize OracleSiteMapProvider -->
    <siteMap defaultProvider="CustomOracleSiteMapProvider">
      <providers>
        <add name="CustomOracleSiteMapProvider"
             type="Oracle.Web.SiteMap.OracleSiteMapProvider,

             applicationName="my_sitemap_app"
             securityTrimmingEnabled="false"/>
