I am using active directory in my ASP.NET project and whenever user register in the site,an account is created in AD. There is an Forgot Password link.Is it possible to get user password from AD.I can get the name or email, but I don't know if I can get the password.
i have a username and password in my portal... i want to connect to the active directory to verify the username and password of the user? using c# .net
I 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 have a problem with the users authentication on my site. I made <authentication mode="Windows"> in my web.config. The LoginView shows "mycomputermyusername" if i request the page. So far as well. Now i want to login with a different username. Users are stored in an Active Directory. My questions: wich setting i have to do, that user's account and password checked by Active Directory? how can i force the system to make a new login? Logout doesn't work, i always see my on account.
I have read countless forums and found nothing so for so apparently what I need is an unusual request.I need a code snippet that will iterate through an AD domain account and display all properties for a given user.Has anyone ever built such a script?
If there is a code snippet that displays just the available properties of a user object, this would be sufficient. I am trying to build an application to add users to our LDAP and need to populate all our specific values however I don't have the specific property names to populate.
Is it possible to authenticate a user using userDN and password? If so, then tell me the syntax.So far i have tried to authenticate using username and password from my c# code using directoryentry which takes the parameters like domainname,username and password. But i need to authenticate using Userdn and password.
How to authenticate an user against a particular OU in Active Directory. If the AD holds 50 OUs I don't want to look into all 50 OUs , instead it should look into a particular OU( for eg: OU=dotnet users) to authenticate the user.

I create a website to add user in active directory. I have 3 file:
1.Default.aspx - Let user fill their privacy information
2.ViewRegisterdata.aspx - Let user confirm their information before it's added to active directory. In this file,there is a Viewregisterdata.aspx.cs which collect user information and send to Class1.cs when users click confirm button.
3.Class1.cs - Do the process in adding user in active directory
I have a problem with a second and third files. When I run the website and go to a second page that is a ViewRegisterdata.aspx and then press a confirm button,it shows an error.
Although I inactivate a code section that do adding user to active directory and write a code to show a value that is sent from A ViewRegisterdata.aspx,It still shows a ViewDataregister.aspx and not show a Windows console.It seems it cannot send user information from a ViewRegisterData.aspx despite I include a Class1.cs into the file already
I am using System.directory services namespace in framework 2 to query active directory. I have used fixed user account impersonisation in the web.config file, find the code:
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.
I 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: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8000500D): The directory property cannot be found in the cache. --- End of inner exception stack trace --- at System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry.Invoke(String methodName, Object[] args)
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 { //Bind to the native AdsObject to force authentication. 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); } return true;
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 ?
I 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.
our Macs are not connected to AD and we also have Windows users.
