I'd like to move everything inside MuniAxis to an external file. I know this isn't possible using configSource because it's not available for section groups, is there any other way?

Thanks in advance.

use ConfigurationManager.OpenMappedExeConfiguration to open the configuration file where you have placed desired section group/section definitions and related data.

The link has an example to to give you kick start.
