In our project, we have a situation where the administrator needs to 'force log off' a particular user under certain conditions. In other words, the admin user needs to have the ability to kill any other user's session.Is this possible? By using the session properties, we can kill the current session (the current user's session) but is it possible (for the admin user) to kill some other user's session?
View 1 RepliesIs there anyway to implement this.If admin block a user then session of that current user should be expired in ASP.NET
View 1 RepliesI am looking for a way to distroy the ASP.net membership session for a specific user. The reason I am doing this is as an admin I want to delete a user. This works fine, but if the user already has an active session, he is still marked as "online" until this session dies (I verify each time by using Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated). How do I go about killing a session based on the user it's authorized as. This way when I do Memberships.DeleteUser(username) I can also do Sessions.KillByUser(username)[URL]
View 2 RepliesI found a great answer on SO describing how to set up custom user roles, and I've done the same in my project. So in my Login service I have:
public ActionResult Login() {
// password authentication stuff omitted here
var roles = GetRoles(user.Type); // returns a string e.g. "admin,user"
var authTicket = new FormsAuthenticationTicket(
1,
userName,
DateTime.Now,
DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(20), // expiry
false,
roles,
"/");
var cookie = new HttpCookie(FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName,
FormsAuthentication.Encrypt(authTicket));
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
return new XmlResult(xmlDoc); // don't worry so much about this - returns XML as ActionResult
}
And in Global.asax.cs, I have (copied verbatim from the other answer):
protected void Application_AuthenticateRequest(Object sender, EventArgs e) {
var authCookie = Context.Request.Cookies[FormsAuthentication.FormsCookieName];
if (authCookie != null) {
var authTicket = FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(authCookie.Value);
var roles = authTicket.UserData.Split(new Char[] { ',' });
var userPrincipal = new GenericPrincipal(new GenericIdentity(authTicket.Name), roles);
Context.User = userPrincipal;
}
}
Then, in my ServicesController class, I have:
[Authorize(Roles = "admin")]
//[Authorize]
public ActionResult DoAdminStuff() {
...
}
I login as a user with the "admin" role, and that works. Then I call /services/doadminstuff - and I get access denied, even though when I put a breakpoint in Global.asax.cs, I can see that my roles do include "admin". If I comment out the first Authorize attribute (with roles) and just use a plain vanilla Authorize, then I can access the service.
This is what I have in the RegisterUser.aspx and yet when the admin registers a new user, then on clickiing the register button, the site logs in as the user who was just created.
protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Roles.AddUserToRole((sender as CreateUserWizard).UserName, "Department");
}

View 1 RepliesI am currently trying to figure out how to best go about implementing an administration side for my application.I have a user site, where users can log in, customize their profile, submit information etc.I would like administration users to be able to log in and be able to choose from a list of users. From there, the administrator can submit information for the user just like the user can.
Website Start Page > RogerRabbit > Submit Information
Website Start Page > BillyBob > Customize Profile

View 4 RepliesIn my project I have one folder called Administration (contains pages created for administrating the public part of the page) and in root I have public pages. What I want to do is to prevent anyone beside administrator to enter the Administration part and to make the Administration/Login.aspx default page for entering Administration part. This part makes me confused. I tried to create the access rules, but that wasn't the option because I upload the images to the Administration/Upload folder so if I deny the users the images on the public part can't be accessed.
The second problem I don't know how to solve is public part of the page where I want to allow commenting only to logged in users (users only, not the admin). How to check if user is logged in and authetificated and how to enable the commenting part of the form to him (textbox and submit button).

View 2 RepliesI have this code , to redirect user when an error is detect on a page, and to notify the admin
vb Code:
Protected Sub Page_Error(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Error
REPORT IF ERROR DETECTED Dim a As New errorhandler
a.reporterror(Page.Title.ToString & " "
& Request.Url.Host.ToString, Server.GetLastError.ToString)
End Sub
then under another button I have this try and catch , i wud like to show the user there is an error on the date input format.
vb Code:
Try
aaa = dateTextBox.Text.Split("/")
bbb = aaa(2).Split(" ")
If (bbb.Length > 1) Then
a = aaa(0) + "/" + aaa(1) + "/20" + bbb(0) + " " + bbb(1).Substring(0, 2) + ":" + bbb(1).Substring(2, 2)

But whenever an error is detect the user is redirected to another page (errorhandler).I was wondering if it's possible not to redirect the user if the error is of type InvalidCastException .
Let suppose, I am building an asp.net website which has login scenario in it. I want to provide a certain functionality to the website that if the user is already login on computer 1 and now try to login on computer 2, so he will be allowed to remain login on computer 2, while automatically logout him from computer 1. I also know that http is a stateless medium, so whenever user interact with computer 1 and try to interact with the page, it will get noticed at that time.
