Accessing Remote Files From Web Service?
Jul 15, 2010
My web service needs to open some files located on a remote computer.
From Windows I can do the authentication so I can see those files using the File Explorer.
If I try to open the files from my Web Service while it's running using Visual Studio (ASP.NET Development Server) it also works.
However, if I do everything from IIS it doesn't.In order to find out where is the problem what I did was to run a network sniffer and I found out that when using IIS, the system will try to use the account 'ASPNET' to login into those remote computers which will obviously fail.
However this doesn't happen if I run from the IDE (Using the ASP.NET Development Server)I found out that if I use Impersonation for accessing this it will work, the problem is I need to have the same account names on the computer running IIS so I would rather not to do that.
Why is it working from the ASP.NET Development Server and not from IIS? Is there a way to give full access to the ASPNET account?

I have installed a web service in a client machine, its accessing a mapped network drive from a remote machine. But when its trying to read files from that file I'm getting this error
Code:
Message:
Authentication failed
Description:

I have supplied user crendentials also, the same web service working in another machine with the same mapped drive with the same user credentials. Manually I can map the drive using the credentials which I'm passing thru the application.

i have a production server that does not have ftp access. Possible way to deploy files is connecting with remote desktop client and send files.
As you know this approach is highly hard and time inefficient.

I am not sure which approach I should use. I have a web application that needs to get/receive data from a third party application that is in a secure remote network. The data needs to be secure during transport. The data layers cannot be exposed and the databases will not talk to each other. The data will be received from remote application on demand, or will get at scheduled intervals.
I have looked at WCF, but not sure if this will work. Can a WCF service be used to receive data as needed from a remote sender or service? Is this a secure way of doing it? I have also looked at SFTP using some XML/XSLT, but I don't think this is the right way to go. In addition, some data may be transported from my web application to the remote application (mostly reports at first). What protocols are used to transfer data between HIPAA compliant applications?

I have log files in different machines. Now i am developing a web page in my development machine (Windows XP, IIS 5.1 installed). In the web page i want to give a link(may be hyperlink or linkbutton). On clicking the link it should access the log file in the particular machine and it should give a popup with open and save option as given in the normal web applications. I am using the following code snippet but its throwing error "Cannnot resolve the URL"
Response.ContentType = "text/txt";
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=log.txt");
string str = ResolveClientUrl("\ip address\FolderName\logs\log.txt");
Response.TransmitFile(str);
Response.End();
Here FolderName is a shared folder in the machine(which ip address is mentioned).

I'm still trying to deploy this site, but with every problem I solve, another arises. Anyways - I've set up the database at my hosting to allow remote connections, and it is running Sql Server 2005. On my development machine, I am working with Sql Server 2008.
I've installed the asp.net schema on my hosted database, and have created several users from the ASP.NET web administration interface, as well as tested that the login works. Running the application locally with the remote connection string nets the same results. However - I'm able to run my scripts and generate my tables and stored procedures without errors - but when the site is run I get the following error on all of my .aspx pages that try to access a stored procedure:
Server Error in '/' Application. Incorrect syntax near 'LoadProfileData'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Incorrect syntax near 'LoadProfileData'.
Source Error:
Line 62: adapter.SelectCommand.Parameters.Add("@ProfessionalName", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = professionalName;
Line 63: DataSet profile = new DataSet();
Line 64: adapter.Fill(profile, "Profile");
Line 65: return profile;
Line 66: }
Is this a possible Sql 2005 vs 2008 issue? I'm hoping someone else has seen this issue in a similar scenario and can point me in the right direction. The server is running asp.net 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 and IIS 7.0.
Stored Procedure:
Drop procedure CreateDefaultProfile
GO
Create procedure CreateDefaultProfile(@UserName varchar(256))
as
declare @ProfessionalID uniqueidentifier

writing a web Service and one of its web method, I want it to download a png file in form
of buffer from remote server. And My consume application will write that buffer retured by Web service in to file on User's Computer.
However, I am able to do this using Local Web Service but when I published that service on my web server, I always get null retuned
And even in one of my test code while copying file from that server , I always get Access Denied.
Following things I have done for above issue.
1] I even tried making the Anonymous user for the web service the system administrator (with the correct password), to no avail.
2] I also tried sharing out the folder I'm pulling files from to allow access from Everyone.
[Previously same service was working fine on another remote server with IIS 7.0, we checked server IIS Settings but in vain.]
if you know where we are mistaken guide me to resolve this issue as its very urgent.

We need to download multiple files from remote servers. It is a process that would take few hours to complete, since we are talking about images ~50kb each and more than 250.000 in total. Each images will downloaded, resized and then imported to SQL.DB, so we do not need to write files to the disk. Also the applications need to use network credentials, since it is behind ISA.
From your experience, what is the best method to implement this? Should we use WebClient or HttpSockets? Should we use Async methods or Threads ? How can we implement for example 5 simultaneously download to achieve better speed, since we may getting files from many different servers at once?

i have a website that accepts files from users.
the site currently save all files to a local directory (~/Data/<Date>), which can be accessed via [URL](Public server)
however to increase performance i need to save the file to a remote http host. ex [URL] (different public server)
i have ftp access to all my public server.
i'm just confused as to which is the most secure way to upload the files from codebehind.
FTP or HTTP Post.
the <date> section of the URL is dynamicall generate using Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath("<year><month><day>");

My web application is on a Webserver that is in a DMZ .
the web application must save on the server in LAN some files, but the webserver cannot access the file server because has no right to access. i wouldn't create an account for the web server, but i would that any time the application has to upload a file onto the file server make a connection that encapsulate credentials, then the upload starts ,finally the connection closes.
Is possible with some Objects to do this type of work?

I have a asp.net web app and a windows service running on separate machines. How can i enable the windows service subscribe/listen to events raised by the asp.net app on the remote machine? What methods can i use?n example of events that can be raised on the asp.net app is a user uploading a file. Once the upload has completed the windows service should be notified so it can do some work. It seems that there needs to be a layer in between asp.net and windows service, possibly another windows service or WCF app? Or plain old polling through a shared database containing the state?
