Hi!
I'm trying to use custom auth provider instead of default in dnn 6.0 and I can't disable the default one.
My steps:
I've copied 'DesktopModules\AuthenticationServices\DNN' contents
to 'DesktopModules\AuthenticationServices\Demo', 
changed namespaces of 'login' and 'settings' to avoid conflicts.
Then in 'Host->Extensions->Create new Extension' I've created new extension of 'Authentication System' type.
The new extension appeared in 'Authentication Systems' section of Extensions screen.
In 'Settings' for it I've changed 'Login control Source' and 'Settings control Source' paths to correspond files in my
'DesktopModules\AuthenticationServices\Demo' folder.

There are 2 buttons on login screen allowing the use of standard or custom login.

I cannot disable 'Default Authentication' system via 'Host->Extensions->Edit Extension'  'cos there are now such a checbox.
Also when I check/uncheck 'Enabled' in 'Admin->Extensions->Edit Extension'  for either Default or custom authentication
system It turned out that checkboxes for both systems are checked/unchecked.
In case of unchecked checkboxes for both auth systems default system is used.
Also the 'In Use' column on 'Admin/Host->Extensions' screen for both auth systems is empty regardless of 'enabled' checkbox.

Have I missed anything? Is the behavior by design?
Then what's the use of 'Create new Extension' option in Host->Extensions?

Any help would be appreciated,
Dan

I had this same problem and the only solution I could find was to disable the default authentication in the database.  I'm sure there is a better way but this is what worked for me.

UPDATE [Authentication] set IsEnabled = 0 where AuthenticationId = 1
