Do I just need to make a field for account type in my user account table? In a technical way, if(account type = admin) then the account would log as admin; otherwise, a user with less privileges.

I am using visual studio 2010 and have created a website for a client. The problem I am having, other than enabling flash video playback which I am researching, is how to make the user accounts expire after a year. He wants users to pay for a year subscription to the website to access the videos, but I can't figure out how to make them good for only a year. And as an aside, if I could make the videos "self-destruct" after 48 hours when downloaded.
View 13 RepliesI have a web app Which Uses Forms Authentication.
One thing that we want to be able to do on Support is login to a specific users account Via our admin account.
We are using the standard asp.net membership authentication.
The idea would be for the support technition to be able to login using credentials like admin(<Troubled User>) using the Admin Account password
We are using a a Standard ASP.Login Control
The real Issue is that the Me.Page.User.Identity.Name is set to the value on the CtlLogin.Username Property. I need it to be the the Support Login?
Login Control
Code:
<asp:Login ID="ctlLogin" runat="server" DisplayRememberMe="False" Font-Names="Arial Rounded MT Bold" Font-Size="12pt" ForeColor="Black"
MembershipProvider="MembershipProvider" Width="100%" TitleText="" UserNameLabelText="User" VisibleWhenLoggedIn="False" RememberMeSet="True"
PasswordLabelText="Password" EnableTheming="False" Height="35px" >
[Code] ....
Validate User Script
Code:
Dim objstrSupUser As String = ""
'Load the user from the membership provider
Dim strUserName As String = ctlLogin.UserName
If ctlLogin.UserName.IndexOf("(") > 0 Then
objstrSupUser = Regex.Match(strUserName, "(([^)]*))").Groups(1).Value

I have an ASP.NET page where at the top of the page is a search box. There are 2 text boxes - one is an autocomplete extender for the Name on a database, and one is just inputting the ID.The page features DetailsViews and GridViews primarily, and even when no account has been searched for, these display blank data which is not ideal. I sort of fixed this by using if (IsPostBack), encasing the elements in a placeholder and setting it to visible only if the page ispostback. But this doesn't cover if the user types in an incorrect ID.
Also, some accounts have huge amounts of data inside the GridView's. I had an issue where because I have no way of detecting when a data source's rows has changed, I end up binding whenever the page loads (Page_Load method). I've come to realise this is simply very bad - there are lots of times when the user can click various things in the page and have the page postback, and it takes an eternity to load each time I click something for accounts with lots of data.Anyway, my question is essentially two-fold but I have a feeling the solution will be similar:1: How can I detect when there are no accounts returned when searching, and disable the Grids/Detailsviews and show an error message?2: How can I figure out when the user searches for another account and only rebind the grids after that has happened?

I am logged in as the administrator when I installed an application named pdflatex.exe on my server. This application works as a converter from LaTeX input file to Pdf file. I host an Asp.net MVC 3 application running under an Application Pool Identity with Load User Profile = True. The Asp.net MVC 3 code contains a code that executes pdflatex.exe using System.Diagnostic.Process instance as follows:
Process p = new Process();
p.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
p.Exited += new EventHandler(p_Exited);
p.StartInfo.Arguments = "-interaction=nonstopmode " + inputpath;
p.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = @"c:mydomain.comworking";
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.FileName = "pdflatex.exe";
p.Start();
p.WaitForExit();
From the scenario above, the web application runs under a restricted acount but it executes an external application under a default account that I don't know. Can an application running under a less privileged account start a process executing another application under an administrative account?

I would like develop an application written in ASP.NET which include an option to configure user accounts in such a way that each user account can be freely assigned to a different module to which it will has access.
So, for example, I would have one table in a database that maps user to modules.
In ASP.NET there is the whole mechanism of roles, but his assumptions are slightly different -> Here you need to centrally configure finished profiles. This can be circumvented in such a way that each application module is a separate role. And for one user can be assigned multiple roles.
But whether such a method is elegant? Should I do it differently?
I have a website that has a login (Like most websites xD) This then obviosly fetches information from a database and loads it on the page. (EG. Welcome "Display Name")
I have designed and coded a application for my site you can use the features from my web on your desktop, I have added a login (required to use the application) and a register. Both login and register work (Fetching information from the database and writing to the database).
Now I have those out of the way I'm now onto the main part of my program which is to display infomation onto the application about the user account. This could include editing the user account, uploading content to the website or viewing content from the website.. (Sorry but I'd like to explain how I have certain things to get the point across clearly )
Anyway how would I create a sort of session? Like PHP, once you login you can grab information from the database based on the information submitted from the login which was fetched from the database.. When the user presses login on my application it brings them to the main part of the application but I'm now unsure how to load variables and/or session data.
(Side note, I have also sha encryption on my website in the register/login, at the moment VB reads the information from the textbox as normal text is there anyway I can get it to read the sha encryption? and also insert data into the database with this encryption?) - This question is optional.

Can a user connect to my web site using an Orkut account ? Just like Google Friend Connect or Facebook, but with Orkut.
The idea is, the user goes to my web site, I have a "Connect using Orkut" button there, on click takes him to the Orkut login page, once s/he logins and grants access to my app, get's redirected to my web site with the Orkut ID as a parameter. The same procedure that works for Google Friend Connect and also Facebook Connect....
I haven't seen an example of this with Orkut. Can it be done ? Is there an Orkut Connect or similar ?
A sample in c# would be excellent, but I would be happy with a sample in any language.

I am setting up a .net membership system and need to validate users from the email address they provide via a "click here to validate your account" type link.
Just wondered if anyone knew of any good tutorials or posts out there about this? I have searched for about an hour and can't find anything - hence me asking the question.
