I'm using DNN 5.01.04 and am having trouble with a custom login page. Here's what I've done:

I've created a new page and added the login module to it.
I then set the Login Page in Site Settings -> Advanced Settings
I tested access to my login page by going to http://www.mysite.com/login.aspx. This was sucessful.
I thought that if I entered http://www.mysite.com?ctl=login I would be redirected to my new login page, but no.
I'm using friendly URLs, so I thought that maybe adding a custom match/replace might help so I added .*ctl=login -> ~/Login.aspx. This doesn't work either.

Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted. Note that this site does the right thing, but how??

That would be nice, but I can't upgrade the .NET version (not anywhere near under my control) , so I'm stuck with 5.1.4 at the latest.

Could you test one thing? You've setup the Login page with a Login module on it right? Have you put any other modules on the page? If not, put on on it, put some content in it, make it visible to ALL USERS. Then try going to login.aspx and ?ctl=login see if you see the same content.
