I need to identify if user is authenticated on web page after it was rendered to client. To accomplish this I thought that I can read document.cookie and check if ".ASPXAUTH" is there. But the problem is that even if I am signed in this value is empty.
How can I check that user is authenticated? Why document.cookie is empty?
I have used the Forms Authentication for logging in and in that i have created the Forms Authentication Ticket and in that ticket i have passing the data with comma seperated values.how can i get the data which is in the ticket to access in the Authenticated user pages
I am using the ASP.NET login control. I want to be able to set the timeout for Forms Authentication individually for each user (instead of globally in the web.config). From what I understand the only way to do this is to set the timeout on the AuthenticationTicket manually. Is there a way to do this when using the Login Control? It seems to me that the Login Control abstracts away all of this. I am hoping that there is some way to continue using the Login Control, but also have the ability to set the FormsAuthentication timeout individually for each user.
I create an authentication cookie (ticket) with an expiration date of one day.The cookie'sIsPersistent is set to true.
I do not use any session variables.
Session timeout is the default 20 minutes.
Here's the problem:
When the session times out in 20 minutes, the user is redirected to the logon page even though the authentication cookie has not expired.
Why does this happen? I thought the cookie and the session worked independently. Shouldn't the user remain logged in as long as the cookie hasn't expired?
i have a custom class has extra information about my users , i want to create an object of this class and attach it to current Authentication ticket , what is the best way to do that , i have read there is a userdata thing in the authentication ticket but it's type is String
The constructors for manually creating FormsAuthenticationTicket objects force us to set an "expiration" value, and this value overrides the "timeout" setting in web.config in my tags, which is not what I want, because now the user doesn't timeout. The "session" just expires at the given time.I need to manually create my ticket for UserData reasons, and it is just the way I decided to build my app. I guess I could spend a whole lot of time and redo the way my app. authorizes, and store the "userdata" elsewhere... but this seems extremely tedious for something so small..Is there anyway to manually create an Auth Ticket and still maintain timeout settings?! And by timeout, I mean resetting the timer on user activity. Not a fixed timeout!
I'm having a problem trying to delete the form authentication ticket (.ASPXAUTH) from the server side. It would be the same to delete or invalidate the ticket so the client could not reuse it.
So far, the only solution I've found is to delete the ticket from the client side (through a "Set-Cookie: .ASPXAUTH=;") but nothing seems to be implemented and/or working for doing so in the server side. The final idea is that if someone steels that ticket
In particular, I'm working in C# but as it's rellated to the Dotnet Framework any implementation of the solution would be OK; I tried all the possible things and nothing worked out, even invalidating the session but nothing.
I am getting this error many times in the event log , and users are logged out .
Event code: 4005 Event message: Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied has expired. Event time: 3/10/2011 3:35:22 PM Event time (UTC): 3/10/2011 8:35:22 PM [code]...
I am not using web farms. I do not think the app pool is recycling , i compared the Process ID in several events and it is equal . My machine key is not AutoGenerate .
My event log is flooded with this message: Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied has expired.I think this happens when people timeout instead of logout.First of all , this is not an error, it's Type: InformationI don't want this information, how do I stop ASP.NET from logging it?My application is not web-farmed, and uses a static machine key.
we recently upgrated our project from 1.1 to 2.0. since then we are seeing "Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied has expired" in Event Viewer. this keeps coming 1-2 times for every minute. this is the full message. this also made the response time increased it seems.
Event code: 4005
Event message: Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied has expired.
How to set Key and Value in the client registry using javascript. I Just want to keep the user profiles in the registry. When a user visit the page from a particular system , automatically connect to the system preferred database.For that I want to keep the connection string in the windows registry. Please tell with code snippets , i am new in javascript.
Both of which give me runtime errors when the event is fired.Whats the correct way to access this text property client side?I tried this but it does not enable the checkbox...
Well, along with having to use == rather than .Equals, when you set a checkbox.enabled = false on the server side it raps the checkbox in tags and sets it to disabled=true; therefore you must set BOTH the checkbox.disabled = false and checkbox.parentElement.disabled = false; on the client side to enable the checkbox!The solution:
Since we updated our website to .NET 4.0, users using a proxy-server can't login in our webapplication anymore.In the event-viewer on the server this error is thrown:Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied was invalid.This problem only exists for users with a proxy, all other users can login normally.We are not using a web garden or multiserver (load balance) environment, just a webserver and a databaseserver.
I have a requirement of adding server side variables in client side and other way round. Because I need to set a value from client side using javascript and access the same in code behind page.
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 want to enhance a composite control's client side, my approach is to recreate all method on JavaScript, so here I have some troubles:Can I call onclick event on client side otherwise on server side?the statement table.onclick=SelectRow(event) fires a bug!Code:
function Control_Init() { if( !(document.getElementById) ) { return; } for( var i = 0; i < Controls.length; i++ ) {
I have a user control which contains a CustomValidator which is used according to whether a RadioButton is checked or not (there are several RadioButtons, I'm only showing the relevant one)
There is some client + server side validation code (the server side code does exactly the same thing and is skipped for brevity)
<script type="text/javascript"> function ValidateDateFields_Client(source, args) [code]...
There are two instances of this control in the page. When running the client side version it hits the wrong one (the version of the control which is disabled). You can see from the generated HTML both are correctly specified. I'm not sure how .NET works out which clientside function to call given they both have the same name.
[code]... Do i need to add something in to scope it? What's the best way to achieve this? If I disable the loading of the second control everything works fine.
I have a WCF service hosted on an external server (other domain) and I'm trying to consume it from a command line application. I receive the following error:
The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.
The service is configured inside a web.config file:
I'm not using any security mechanism for authentification but still, the service seems to be expecting one. When working on different domains, is it mandatory to use a basic authentification?
EDIT: I wasn't referencing any binding configuration at my endpoint. Once the reference was set, I received another message error:
{"The message with Action 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/02/trust/RST/Issue' cannot be processed at the receiver, due to a ContractFilter mismatch at the EndpointDispatcher. This may be because of either a contract mismatch (mismatched Actions between sender and receiver) or a binding/security mismatch between the sender and the receiver. Check that sender and receiver have the same contract and the same binding (including security requirements, e.g. Message, Transport, None)."}
The issue was caused by my client's binding. While I was creating my custom binding using the standard 'WSHttpBinding', the 'SecurityMode' property was set to 'Message' instead of 'None'. Now the code looks like the following and the service finally works:
WSHttpBinding standardBinding = new WSHttpBinding(SecurityMode.None, false); CustomBinding myCustomBinding = new CustomBinding(standardBinding);
I am developing an MVC2 application an am using the built in Membership provider. I am just asking myself if the authentication is on the server or the client?
We have a large extranet asp.net application that users forms authentication. In addition, for SCCM purposes, each computer in the company has a client certificate installed.
Now the question has been raised:
Is it possible for us to test for the presence of this certificate from our asp.net code behinds?
We don't want to switch our security to require client certificates to access the site, there are just parts of some pages that we'd rather not display if the person viewing the site is not using a company issued machine.
I'm running into an issue which has me going in circles with the references I've been able to find online. I have an application which is using client certificate authentication (with a removable token). It works well as long as a user doesn't leave their computer. If the token is pulled and any timer events fire on the page causing a postback the application loses its authentication and ends up at an error page.
I've seen some sites which use a mix of (presumably) forms authentication and windows authentication so that the network authentication only has to happen one time and then a token is built which the session relies on for future requests. I had hoped to use something similar to this so that when a new user enters the application they are redirected to a secure page which will request the client certificate (same principal as windows authentication) and then create the token before sending the user back to their requested page. So far no luck with this.
If I try to setup a subfolder in my website with a different authenication scheme from the root ("windows" vs "forms") I'm given an error in Visual Studio about requiring a separate application in IIS for this to be valid. Working in a development environment this is not practical. Every other technique I've run across which tries to force one page (or folder) to use a windows credential is leaving me with an empty identity object.
Has anyone come up with a way of using a mix of authentication methods to reach the goal I have and still work inside of Visual Studio for development activities?
I am trying to authenticate the users on a web application through their Active Directory credentials. What should I use? Client Certificate Mapping? or Forms? I am currently using a Form Authentication, but it is not working. It keep telling me my credentials are not correct. Should I switch over to something more recent? Client Certificate Mapping is installed, I just don't know how to set it up. Isn't there something about purchasing a certificate for the website? Is there anything else I can use that is secure and uses Active Directory credentials?
In my website, I am not using any authentication or authorization. I've created login page to capture the user credentials and check against database. If the user successfully authenticates, it's storing the user data in session and navigating to other pages. How thinking of implementing Forms Authentication, but my concern is how to secure the authentication token in client browser for security reasons. Does anyone have any ideas how to secure the authentication token?
