.net - Path Access In Web.config Without Using Forms Authentication?
Oct 14, 2010
I am required to control access to a specific file on our server. I suggested, for the time being (rather than affording time for other routes until we can), that we simply use the web.config to lock this file down to everyone by means of a location/system.web/authorization setting.
This soon failed to protect the resource and I quickly became aware why (I think). It is a public site and is not using Forms authentication (currently just defaulting to Windows).
So, for clarity, here are the relevant parts the config file...
Can I secure this resource without turning on Forms authentication? Or can I turn authentication on but never actually require authentication to occur, by allowing all resources but the ones explicitly stated, or by explicitly stating all allowed and denied resources?
i have a problem with forms authentication. i have a website and want to restrict access to an especific folder. i want the access to this folder be made via the login form this is what i have in the web.config
I need to put windows authentication on a site (so when a user access the site they are prompted with a username/password box) but I need certain IP addresses to bypass this authentication.
byte[] b = YourByteArrayFromDb; File.WriteAllBytes(MyFilePath, b);
But I am receiving an exception "Access to the path is denied". How do I solve this using ASP.Net with C#? And is there any format to set the path as string?
aspnet_regiis.exe -pdf "connectionStrings" c:web.config And this is the error I got. Error - "The configuration for physical path 'C:Web.Config' cannot be opened. And the permissions of that file is not read only.
This could be very straight forward for some of you, but I got caught up. I am doing very simple test - browsing from IIS Manager to see the default page or "under Construction", however I am being challenged to provide my login credential . When I provide my login credential, I am able to see the default page. I wanted to see the default page without providing my credential since Enable anoymous access + basic authentication I am simply wanted to see the default page asit is working on other servers except this one. I have included screen print to make sure may question is clear.
I trying dotnetzip on localhost everything works fine.but on a real dotnet hosting it raises error :
Access to the path 'C:inetpubvhostslahblah.comsubdomains aporhttpdocsDotNetZip-luqevaxu.tmp' is denied. using (ZipFile zip = new ZipFile(Server.MapPath("~")+"/a.zip")) { zip.AddFile(Server.MapPath("~")+"/deneme.txt"); zip.Save(); }
I have a few pages that need to use SSL and I am confused bc I read you should set the forms authentication section in the web.config to use SSL. so if this is the case, the user logs in (login page is using ssl) the forms auth cookie is created and now if i redirect to the non ssl enable home page, does this mean the auth cookie will not be transmitted, so i can't display like a welcome module or know the username of the user who logged in?
I wanted to impose specific timeout interval and request length on some specific pages that uploads documents of size up to 50MB. Hence I did the following config changes after going through some sites.
I keep getting error when I run the application. I tried various other ways like giving the complete path like <sitename>/<applicationname>/<v.folder name>/<filename>.I tried this on both IIS 6.0 and IIS 7.0.
I have one requirement that i have to place the log file in the same directory of solution. That is my solution is placed in [drive]workProject1solution file. But i have to create my log file to [drive]workProject1Loglog.log. How it can be set in app.config file.

Consider granting access rights to the resource to the ASP.NET request identity. ASP.NET has a base process identity (typically {MACHINE}ASPNET on IIS 5 or Network Service on IIS 6) that is used if the application is not impersonating. If the application is impersonating via <identity impersonate="true"/>, the identity will be the anonymous user (typically IUSR_MACHINENAME) or the authenticated request user.To grant ASP.NET access to a file, right-click the file in Explorer, choose "Properties" and select the Security tab. Click "Add" to add the appropriate user or group. Highlight the ASP.NET account, and check the boxes for the desired access.Source Error:

I want to be able to search for path of Secure and find out the user role that is specified. My input is the path, such as "Secure" and the value I'm trying to retrieve is "SecureUsers".
The example above is specifying that all directories will be locked down to anonymous users except the two directories dir1 and dir2. I'm curious if there is a syntax that I can use that will allow me to define more than one directory within one location element. For example, it would be convenient if we could do something like this...
I want to I get the file path test.config.How do find the the path to that file ?I tried something this but it appears an error:Object reference notes Set to an instance of an object.
I am getting the access denied error while trying to delete file using the file.delete() method even though i have set permitted full control to NETWORK SERVICES user and IUSER_(user_name) and ASP.NET Machine Account users on the folder that contains the file to be deleted.
My page also allows files to be uploaded(to the same folder) and that part works perfectly fine but I get this UnauthorisedAccessException when I try to delete it at app runtime...pls do help me out folks..cant believe this error has taken my whole day..

I use it in other sections of my site and know that it works as intended when it is deployed to my webhost. I am having issues with another section where I use it so I want to step through it to debug, what do I change this "~" to, to correctly reference the config when I am debuging locally.
