web.config inheritance pain!

I have a virtual website or what ever it's really called in IIS6 under my
root intranet site both use ASP.NET 2.0... my intrante site has a roles
provider in it, which is set as the default provider for that site. When I
try to go to the virtual site now though under http://intranet/othersite
(which is really our Sourcegear vault server site) the othersite loads up
with an error that says
Configuration Error
An error occurred during the processing of a configuration file required to
service this request. Please review the specific error details below and
modify your configuration file appropriately.

which did not show up until we started using a role provider on the parent
site! how do I prevent this sub virtual site from inheriting the parent site
web.config's role provider? I even have this in there now and it doesnt help
at all
<siteMap enabled="false"></siteMap>
<roleManager enabled="false"></roleManager>
that's in the sub site trying to disable the two new items... but doesnt
seem to help... what should I do? thanks!You can clear the providers from the parent site in the "othersite"
web.config file.
<system.web>
<roleManager>
<providers>
<clear /> <!-- this line clears the providers from parent site
and from machine.config -->
<add name="othersiteprovider" type="othersideprovidertype"
attrib1="value1" attrib2="value2" />
</providers>
</roleManager>
</system.web>
