I am currently creating a .NET based (website/system) solution for small IT companies and I am offering it in a self-hosted package, which means my clients are going to mainly install it on their own servers. How do I make sure my system is not being run except on one server per client and no body is illegally-copying it to other servers/machines?
How to protect our website from Hackers. I have developed a website. This is still on a demo url. This is not on the original url but i see that some people in USA and other countries are accessing the page with my old urls. I get the mail of error report with IP address of the user.some user try with wrong url like [URL]. How i will protect my website from these types of users and also from Hackers.
If I have a url as part of my website that points to a document:[URL]
is there any way to prevent someone from just going to that URL if they are not logged/authenticated into our site? The site has its own login username/password mechanism that was implemented where users log in.
i have a search box, many text boxes which taken various inputs and save it to database using primitive methods such as "insert into....." executenonquerry etc.have read something that " a textbox by itself can prevernt attacks known as sql injections" is that true?if sohow to enable it?does it need extra coding?
I have a website that is going on a public server so I want to password protect it, but for a while only myself and a couple of others will be using it. I will eventually get it together to do it right and have the users in a database etc, but for now, I just want to put a couple of users with their passwords in the web.config and have them authenticate on a login page.
Created a windows service for my local system for sending bulk mail and it is working.But the same if the want to access the db which is there in hosted server and want to install it in my local machine to access the db details from the server , is not working. While starting a service , it is stopping immediately. Is it possible to do so?
I have a website that my company hosted using hubspot.. now the guy who made it is gone..
Currently all the code is in the front end which i think was made by using the CMS tool of hubspot.
What i need to do is add another page to this website which has my code and also has a backend code in it.
how do i proceed.. i am currently working with asp.net and C#...
which language i should chose to do the backend coding.. the code i plan to write is not that complex.. i just need to get a value for the user using a textbox, multiply with a number and display/email it back.
I have a WCF service that runs in my web application that provides data to a Silverlight application and is defined as follows (with an appropriate .svc file)....
[ServiceContract(Namespace = "")] [AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)] public class DispatchService [code]...
The idea is that the user logs into the website and is then authorised for all services. I do not want to have a login aspect to my Silverlight application to authenticate users.Therefore I dont want anyone to be able to call my service who is not authenticated.
Could I...Somehow determine this for each Operation Contract. I had a look inside the OperationContext object but couldnt find anthing that stood out as a way to determine who the user was.Somehow attribute the ServiceContract so that the method can only be used by authorised users?Put something in my web.config to stop unathorised users from being able to access the folder containing the services?
But I have other tests that are essentially deployment tests (you can't test how the production deployment went using a unit test on a build server) and I'd like to use the nUnit framework to run these.But, the production server doesn't have the nUnit command line executer. I'm only allowed to run aspx pages and reference .dll's in bin.What do I need to do to run tests (yeah, yeah, they're not really unit tests--relax) using nUnit in a webpage? Is there a straight forward way to do this, or does this essentially require porting the nUnit winforms test runner to ASP.NET?
i don't know if it is from the web.config or if i missed something also i notes that the site in is not working in firefox browser (HTML code will appear instead of design) but in internet explorer the design works fine but without the asp controls
I have been reading up on encrypting the connectionStrings section of the web.config file and I have noticed that all of the methods embed the cypher key in either the registry or the machine.config file. My site is currently being hosted for me by a hosting company and as such I do not have direct access to the registry (or aspnet_regiis for that matter). I was wondering what options are available to me if I cannot use the usual aspnet_regiis method or am I misreading the posts?
My asp.net site has very good performance on local ips on all the systems. But it 5 time slow down on live ip.
1. What could be the issue:
Server is not capable? I have checked the ping and it response time is 153 ms for each require on live ip but on local ip it gives < 1 ms response time.
2. I have not compile the solution just copy and paste on the iis and create virtual directory?
I we have created a website that requires users to login. It used forms based authentication and sql server to validation the login credentials.
Should we need to purchase an external connector license from microsoft to be able to host this site on a windows .net platform.
Edit: More information about external connectors. In microsoft licensing world there are cals for users connecting to the windows server software, external connectors are unlimited cal licenses.
The behaviour I would like is for a user to be able to visit a custom built website and if they are already authenticated against sharepoint for the custom website to know who they are and give them various rights. If they are not recognised by sharepoint then I would like them to login to sharepoint and be directed back to the custom website. Sharepoint picks its users and groups up from Active Directory. I don't know much about the internals of the server, but the custom one will be in a separate domain (I think) though I have full control over the custom and moderate control over the SP infrastructure.
I have a strange problem that I am trying to find a solution to or even only know why does this happen. I built a website using ASP.NET, when I run the website locally it looks very normal (I am speaking Style and CSS wise) on all the browsers (including IE8). And when I deploy this website to the test server which has Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6, the applications looks normal too on all the browsers except IE8. I did not try other versions of IE but I have a requirement to have this website working on IE8. Some tweaking on the CSS solves some of the problems but I do not want to go through each and every tiny detail and rework my whole CSS. There are even some problem which cannot be resolved.I have no clue why is this happening. It should be something either with the OS or the application server because those are the only differences between my machine and the server. On my machine I have Windows 7 Enterprise and I was test the website on the ASP.NET development server.
We have developed a website in asp.net using windows authentication and deployed it on the intranet (IIS v6.0). Most of the times, when users try to access this website they are taken straight to the website, but occasionally some users get a prompt to enter their windows username and password. I understand that this could be caused because of several reasons like:
Cached active directory password. Recently active directory password changed. Active directory account locked out. I want to fix this issue for good because it is annoying the users.
I have an ASP.Net site using Forms authentication. One of the aspx pages loads a WinForms user control hosted in IE. That control must connect with a WCF service located in the same ASP.Net web site.How can I make the WCF service secure? Currently I have set the WCF service to use AspNetCompatibilityRequirements mode but the user control hosted in IE can't connect to the WCF service as it isn't logged in.
