I am using a 3rd-party .NET component which requires an XML configuration file. I'm am using this in an ASP.NET application.

I get an error when configure the XML with the following dtd:

<!DOCTYPE prod-config SYSTEM "prod-config.dtd">

The error is as follows:

For security reasons DTD is prohibited in this XML document. To enable DTD processing set the ProhibitDtd property on XmlReaderSettings to false and pass the settings into XmlReader.Create method.

prod-config.dtd is sitting in the same directory as the XML config file.

I don't have access to the component code to modify XmlReaderSettings, ProhibitDtd etc. Is there anotherway I can modify or tag the XML file to permit the DTD to be accessed?

(FYI, the component is Oracle Coherence .NET client)
