implementing a strong two factor authentication solution to an app that's already using asp.net authentication? any particular add-ons that work well with asp.net? Preferably one that doesnt involved end-user hardware.
View 1 RepliesWe are in the process of building a new website which we want to lock down to specific computers to only allow access, then once the pc is authenticated we will do our in built user authentication. Also, when a pc is known, we dont really want anything on the pc which can be easily transfered (by the client) onto another pc in order to gain access to the website. the best way to achieve this 'lock down', we dont really want to go down the AD route and have loads of extra user data to maintain.
View 2 RepliesDoes anyone have any pointers for implementing the following: I want to cheaply enable multi-factor authentication on an asp.net website. I want people to be able to use an app on their phone (iPhone at the very least) to generate the token used alongside their username/password to login to the site. I do not want the people to have to carry a third-party device/fob to generate the token.
View 3 RepliesI have a quite advanced application, where I need to add some client/server functionality. Some examples of functionalities is:
Chat
One vs. one fight in a browser game
Draw people on a map
I am creating this application in ASP.NET and AJAX. I do not use Silverlight/Java Applet/Flash or anything else. If possible, I do not want to change this for other reasons.
I thought about creating some kind of game server, and then communicating either web services or TCP protocol: But I have NO idea if this is a good idea. Also, I don't know how to do this.
So my question is:
What's the best way to implement this? And is it even possible? And if it is, could you give a reference or two?
i want to create a centralised business or Service authendication architecture in .net. for example, we have a clients like c1, c2, c3, c4, ... etc. everybody logins seperatly as well as grouply. ie, if client "C1" logins [with login authentication] he can access c2 , c3, c4 also without login authendication. So its like a google. if we enters gmail account, we can access orkut, picasa like that.. i need the cetralised architecture.
And, client "c1" seperately asks seperately how will be the authendication architecture.
so give me the single solution for both these two scenarios. how will be the architecture for these two and how is the Data Base (Login) Structure.
I am looking for general direction on the best practice here. I have a class that I want to share between two different forms in two projects that are associated. The two forms are in seperate projects but both projects load together as I have added the second project to the first. I also have a class that I want to share between these two projects which will cause me to add another project to this solution with will mean I will have three projects in my solution. My question is how do I best share this class?
I believe the only way to do this is to add the class in the reference in both of the form projects?... Is this correct ? I'd really like to just reference the class and inherit it in the source code without adding it as a reference but I am feeling that I can't do that. I am obviously pressed for time and working on other projects and a I am a experienced coder with only about 1 year of C# experience...

View 3 RepliesI want to put my website project and admin website under same project as I want to use session and authentication of the main site. Also I want to show the admin, the page, where he has made changes. But the problem is whenever I will change anything in admin pages, I've to build the entire website. I don't want to do that. Can I build that separately?
I don't want to choose the option of building all pages separately as well.
Is there any alternatives of doing that. Separate projects for admin and website will come up with many other challenges. So I would like to avoid that.
I am working on a web application project with a layered architectural style having DAL, BLL, Service Layer and Presentation Layer. It's going to be a Web forms application.
My intent is to try using some of the new features of .Net 3.5 or 4.0.
Currently, I am thinking through different approaches for implementing Authentication in this project.
I have a query regarding the design of the application, particularly Authentication.
In which layer should I have Authentication class? BLL? If I implement the Authentication class in BLL, should I be having an app.config in the same class library project to contain the Database connection string and all.
I've got a multi level dependency chain in my object model: An organization has the following children relationships:
Organization
.CompetitionGroups
.CompetitionGroups.Venues
.CompetitionGroups.Competitions
.Divisions.Games
.Divisions.Games.Participants
.Divisions.Games.Participants.GameSegments
.Divisions.SubDivisions...
.Divisions
.Teams
.Teams.Players
.Teams.Participants
.Teams.Participants.GameSegments
.VenueDates
This is just a glimpse at the object model, but it's focused on the complexity of the relationships and lists. What I can't really get is what's the best way to factor my repository interfaces, given the requirements to do a unit of work. For example, to create a game, you'll need a venuedate and two participants. Does that mean the GamesController should require an IGameRepository, an IVenueDateRepository, and an IParticipant repository? Should they be rolled into one repository?
Also, what about in the consumption cases? For example, to display a signle team's schedule, you'll need all of the Participants for that Team, all of the Games for that participant, and all of the GameSegments for the participant. If those are factored into individual repositories I can't see how you can do efficient queries. Does that mean you have Repositories specifically focused on different cases? for example:
public interface IScheduleRepository {
public ICollection<Game> GetScheduleForTeam(Team team);
// More consumption methods
}
public class ScheduleRepositry : IScheduleRepository {
public ScheduleRepository (ModelContext context) {
// Do stuff with context
}
public ICollection<Game> GetScheduleForTeam(Team team) {
return (
from p in context.Participants
where ((p.Game.VenueDate != null) &&
(p.TeamId == team.Id))
orderby p.Game.VenueDate.StartTime
select p.Game).ToList();
}
// more consumption methods
}
public interface IGameRepository {
public void AddGame(Game game);
// More crud methods
}
// Not showing games repository
public class GamesController : Controller {
public GamesController (IGameRepository gamesRepo,
IVenueDateRepository venueDateRepo,
IParticipantRepository participantRepo) {
// do stuff with repos here
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AddGame(Game game) {
// Skipping validation logic
// this?
VenueDate = venueDateRepo.Add(game.VenueDate);
foreach (Participant p in Game.Participants)
{
participantRepo.Add(p);
}
Game = gamesRepo.AddGame(game);
// or this?
// how would the game repo know to persist
// the children elements? is that tight coupling?
Game = gamesRepo.AddGame(game);
}
// more consumption methods
}
My question is I don't yet understand to what degree factoring your repositories make sense based on a connected object model. I'd love to get some advice here.
I'm trying to create a .NET solution and add class libraries to it. First - in VS2008 I go to File > New > Project > Other Project Types > Visual Studio Solutions > Blank Solution. Then - after VS2008 creates the blank solution I right click on the solution and select Add > New Project > Visual C# > Class Library. However, when I add the Class Library to the solution, the solution icon disappears from Solution Explorer (although the solution name is still in the VS2008 title bar). Why does the solution icon disappear
from the Solution Explorer when I attempt to do this?
I am stumped by a serious issue in Vs 2008.
I created a Blank solution called HelloWorld.Then I added a new Class Library project by the name of HelloWorldService.After creation of the
Class Library project the Solution name disappeared from Solution Explorer.
As a result of which I can now only add new items into the Class Library project but cannot add new item to the solution.
This appears to be a pretty old problem as I found it in another link on the internet.

It seems to be a bug.Has MS released a patch or a fix for this.
Just going to start making a web application and was wondering which was better, or at least what are the main differences between them (as it probably matters what I am using them for)?

recently i've studied on ADO.NET's Entity Model Framework and say 'wow' as ORM is one of the fevourite pattern i practice..but suddenly i've come to an ambiguous situation when i'm going to start. i usually follow the following 3-tier architecture..
1. UI Layer
2. BLL - business logic layer
3. DAL - Data Access Layer
a. DTO / DAO
b. Gateway (contains the sql query/stored procedure and connection with DB)
now when i'm going to use the Entity Model Design,where the DBML/ .edmx File should be placed? Because many a times i'm using the DBML file as DTO because of the mapped objects.. in the same time, sometimes DBML ( .edmx file in .NET 4.0) contains CRUD methods and stored procedured method as well as methods with different selection operations,- which should be in Gateway. so where the .edmx file should be placed !?!! IN DTO namespace !? or in Gateway namespace!
moreover sometimes there is no need for the BLL which breaks the rules of inter-layer-communication (UI > BLL > DAL.Gateway)! what makes me confuse is, what should be the ideal n-tier architecture when i'll use the ADO.NET Entity Model Design Framework
I am working on 3 tier architecture: UI, BL, DAL. In my UI i have following code for Asynchronous page processing:

But I want a database fetch operation to be performed in this asyncronous method. And due to 3 tier arch. i am unable to do this in UI Layer. Can anyone guide me that how can I implement Asynchronous processing in 3 tier architecture? Note: If you are going to place EndAsyncWork1 in DAL then show that how can I return a value back to UI layer from this function.

then which logic is better and why ?
I have implemented the 3-tier architecture project; DAL, BAL, and presentation layer are three layers in it. I am going to implement the following scenario:
Presentation layer calls to a function in the BAL layer which returns 2 string variable, and in turn this function from BAL layer calls to a DAL layer function which also returns 2 string variable. How can I implement the above scenario?
I'm developing a n-tier architecture... I'm confused with handling exception in the layers... Is it a good practise to add a Exception Layer to the architecture.

I am try to create architecture design for WCF service.
We have WCF service that we have to expose to third party so then can request with xml and get back xml response.
The wcf service should do the following:
- Accept the request call with xml
- Check xml against the schema
- Parse the xml
- Authenticate the incoming xml by username and password that will be in xml
- Send back the response
If anybody can let me know what kind of design I can use or is there any pattern available that I can take it and then extend it as per my requirement.
