I have an intranet that gets the current logged in user through active directory. When a user is locked out they get a windows prompt to enter their username and password. Is there a way for me to catch this and redirect them to a page where they are asked to enter their credentials again or tell them that their account might be locked out and to contact the help desk?
View 1 RepliesWe 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 a asp.net page using c#.
1. My asp.net page has a login page.
2. i created a list of user in database who has the access in my asp page.
3. but i want to use their SAME username and password (active directory) to use as their login name and password to my asp page.
4. how can i access the active directory username and password and connect to my list of user database.

View 1 RepliesI need to look for an example of a web application, preferably ASP.NET but any otherweb language will do, that lets Mac and Windows users change their AD password.
Any technique, application, or source code will be great.

View 1 RepliesI have a web page that users go to in order to reset their password in two separate domains. The basic code that does this is:
UserEntry.Invoke("ChangePassword", new object[] { txtCurrentPassword.Text, txtNewPassword.Text });
One problem I have is that I'd like to be able to display a message if a user tries to change a password to something not allowed because of password history rules. The exception raised(8007202F) when I try to change to something in the password history is the same one I've seen for other password errors(for example complexity issues). Is there an easy way to tell if there is a problem with changing a password due to password history requirements?
I am trying to build a web app for an intranet site that for security reasons needs to make the user type in their Windows or Active Directory username pwd manually. I have previously worked with Integrated Windows Auth but in this case, we do want them to use type in their AD credentials.
I have been trying to look up how to do this and frankly I am a bit lost. It should be a fairly straightforward task and am hoping you can point me in the right direction, with some tutorials or examples. We will be using SSL so, dont have to worry about passing pwd in cleartext over the wire.
My environment is visual studio 2008 in C#, .net 3.5 if that matters.

I have an Intranet web site that uses Windows Authentication and when a users password expires the do not get a prompt letting them reset it. We also have OWA and if they go there to check mail, it sends them to a page which allows them to reset it there. How can I trap for expired passwords and allow them to change it like they can with OWA?

My IIS server requires authentication to access the localserver this is causing android WebView component to get 403 error once directed the the url if I uncheck Basic Authentication under Directory found in Computer Management -> Web Sites -> Properties I would receive 403 error(Access Denied) this time including my browser
once I restart my computer How do I disable authentication without losing access to it? if this is not possible Is there a way to allow android WebView enter the username and password automatically to prevent 403 error?
I've been searching for a solution to get a list of the AD Groups for at specific AD user. I'll need the current user logged in and would like to query by the username. The problem is that all the solutions I find on the web uses System.DirectoryServices - and I can't find the dll in my .Net 4.0 webproject (I only have System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement) - so I can't use any of the examples that I've found. Is there a difference way to query the AD through 4.0 compared to 2.0? I could really use some examples, articles or just good advise to get moving - I'm kind of stuck at the moment.

<identity impersonate="true" userName="enterprise ang09" password="Telcome123"/>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
I have disabled anonymous access in IIS. Also i have given Read & write access to the account tang09 for the website virtual directory and Microsoft.NET folder located in windows folder. But still i get prompted for the domain username and password to access the website.
know how to get forgot password from active directory in asp.net 2.0 if you have sample example then give me.
View 3 RepliesI am trying to create a new user and set their password in AD LDS using asp.net vb. I'm binding to an instance of a directory entry, which is working fine. And I can add a user without a problem. The problem is that I can't seem to set the password when I add the user. Is this the right way to set the password?
Dim objADAM As DirectoryEntry = BindToInstance()
Dim objUser As DirectoryEntry = objADAM.Children.Add("CN=Jimmy", "User")
objUser.Properties("sn").Value = "lloyd"
objUser.Properties("givenName").Value = "Jimmy Smith"
objUser.Properties("userpassword").Value = "THEPASSWORD"
objUser.CommitChanges()
This is the error that I get :
System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryServicesCOMException (0x80072020): An operations error occurred. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80072020) at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.CommitChanges()
I've also tried this :
Dim objADAM As DirectoryEntry = BindToInstance()
Dim objUser As DirectoryEntry = objADAM.Children.Add("CN=Jimmy", "User")
objUser.Properties("sn").Value = "lloyd"
objUser.Properties("givenName").Value = "Jimmy Smith"
objUser.CommitChanges() objUser.Invoke("SetPassword", New Object() {"123456789A$#"})
objUser.CommitChanges()
Which gave me this error :
System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException:

I'm using the code below to authenticate a user in Active Directory, but the password is sending in clear text. How can I hash my password and then send it to Active Directory?
DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry(path, username, pwd);
try

object obj = entry.NativeObject;
DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher(entry);
search.Filter = "(SAMAccountName=" + username + ")";
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("cn");
SearchResult result = search.FindOne();
if (null == result)
{
return false;
}
//Update the new path to the user in the directory.
_path = result.Path;
_filterAttribute = (string)result.Properties["cn"][0];
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new Exception("Error authenticating user. " + ex.Message);

I have a domain controller on windows 2008 server R2, The users are able to modify their password through a web page. Once it's done, the users are still able tu use the old password as well as the new one at the next logon. The old password is still active only one time after the change, after that it's no more possible to use it...
I invoke the "ChangePassword" function.
Is it a parameter to configure on the server ? Is it cached somewhere on the computer of the users ?
