How To Convert Forms Authentication To Windows Authentication

Sep 15, 2010

I've been asked to convert an asp.net application from forms authentication with roles using the aspnetdb database to use windows authentication instead.

what is required to do this? can I still use the roles defined in the app and stored in aspnetdb?

ADO.NET :: How Do Convert MDF Connectionstrings / Use Sql Authentication Rather Than Windows

Mar 4, 2011

I'm trying to run my simple application online for the first time but keep getting the following error for pages with sqldatasources on them:

Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication.

I read somewhere that it's because I'm using Windows Authentication for my connectionstrings and that to avoid this error I should use sql authentication. I'm using Visual Studio 2008. How does one go about getting a .MDF database to use sql or mixed mode authentication rather than Windows?

I'm stumped because I know I'd have to add users to "security" but I just don't know where I'd do it because when I right click on app_data, add new item and add sql server database it does not further ask if I want the new mdf file to use sql authentication, which is what I want so my connectionstrings don't produce the error I've bolded above.

Mixing Forms Authentication With Windows Authentication?

Feb 12, 2010

I have an (ASP.NET 3.5) intranet application which has been designed to use forms authentication (along with the default aspnet membership system). I also store additional information about users in another table which shares its primary key with the aspnet_users table.

For users who are part of our domain I store their domain account name in the secondary users table, and I want to automatically log in users whose domain account name matches a name stored in the table.

I have read the guides which are available - they're all from two years ago or more and assume that you are able to activate Windows Authentication on a separate login page that allows you to extract the domain account name. From what I can tell, though, this is not possible in IIS7 (the overall authentication method is applied on all pages and cannot be selectively deactivated, and both authentication methods can't be applied on the same page).

Is there a way of getting IIS to pass through the windows domain account name of the requesting user? I don't need proper AD authentication, just the domain name.

Use Active Directory Authentication When Windows Authentication Fails?

Mar 29, 2011

I have a web application (intranet based) which uses Windows Authentication. Unfortunately there are public computers that have public logins at some company locations. My web app doesn't support these public logins because I need to know the user workingSo, even though these public users are windows authentication users, my app will fail because I have no user account setup for that particular account. I want to then try Active Directory Authentication.In my Default.aspx.cs I'd have something like this

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{try
userContext = new UserContext(); // If the authenticated user isn't a user in my system then throw an exception
}

C# - Disable Authentication On Subfolder Of An App Using Windows Authentication

Apr 26, 2010

Is it possible to disable windows authentication on one or more subfolders of an ASP.net application using windows authentication?

For example:

A website contains several other folders that contain parts of the overall application: /frontend,/backend, /login

The bin folder is on the same level as these subfolder, i.e. the root of the website.

All of these subfolders contain pages that use binaries that reside in the bin folder of the root of the website.

The user must input windows credentials when visiting a page in the backend folder, but not when visiting a page in the login or frontend folder.

Windows Authentication Of Intranet Website And Reappearing Windows Login Box

Mar 24, 2011

I'm trying to enable automatic Window authentication working on our ASP.NET Intranet. I've changed the Authentication on our IIS 7.5 server from Anonymous to Windows Authentication Enabled only, and changed the Web.config file for the website to:

<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>

The Windows login box appears when accessing the website via IE 8, I enter valid credentials, but the login window keeps reappearing as if it does not accept my credentials. By repeatedly cancelling the login box it disappears, and my login name can be viewed on the website. Is there any possible reason for the login box to keep popping up even though valid credentials are being entered? I've restarted the servers / cleared browser cache etc. Also, ideally I would like the user to enter the login details once in the login box and not be required to reenter login details whenever he reopens the browser.

How To Setup Windows Authentication On Windows 7 Development Environment IIS 7.5

Nov 2, 2010

My overall goal is just to get the logged on users information for an Intranet site I'm developing without them providing their login (since they are already logged into their computer). So far I just get 401.1 errors and it keeps asking for my login/password. Even though I provide my login/password, it still won't let me in.

I've Enabled Windows Authentication from IIS > Sites > Default Web Site, added this to my web.config:

<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>

My Application Pool is setup as Integrated / ApplicationPoolIdentity for .NET Framework 2.0.

Forms Authentication For Users And Windows For Database?

Jun 14, 2010

On our production servers, the admins created a WebUser active directory account which is users for anonymous access to IIS and is also used to authenticate database access with our SQL Server instances using Integrated Security=SSPI in the connection string and identity impersonate="true" in the web.config.

I've often come across situations where I would like to or even need to use forms authentication. However, I using forms authentication, Integrated Security seems to use the logged in user's credentials to authenticate against the database. In these cases I have changed the connection string to use the credentials of a SQL Server users instead. I would prefer to not have a hard coded username and password in the connection string or rather worse in code. Is it possible to use forms authentication just for user authentication for users and windows authentication with the IIS user for database access? What would be the best practice in such a situation?

Security :: Getting Windows Username Using Windows Authentication?

Sep 3, 2010

I am developing one intranet website. Being an intranet application, one of the requirement is to have a single sign on feature.

It means that the windows PC username (i.e the "ctrl + alt + delete" username) is going to be the username for the system.

How do i fetch that username?

I tried the following two ways which are working in debug mode but not on live site.

System.Security.Principal.IPrincipal user = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.User;
Response.Write(user.Identity.Name);
&
Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables["AUTH_USER"].ToString());

Both the above method works when i run the page from visual studio.

However when i run the page from IIS or any other server, it gives me a blank value

AJAX :: AutoCompleteExtender - Authentication Failure (forms Authentication)

Apr 15, 2010

'm using the AutoCompleteExtender from the AJAX control toolkit on my aspx page - I have it wired up to a WCF service that is returning a string array and everything works happily.

If I change my service definition to include a demand for the caller to be authenticated, like so:

<OperationContract(), PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Authenticated:=True)> _Public Function GetLookupValues(ByVal prefixText As String, ByVal count As Integer, ByVal contextKey As String) As String()

Then the autocomplete extender stops working, and I get an authentication error in the service. The service is set up to use ASPNetCompatibility mode, and I was hoping that the extender would pass the authentication credentials for my logged in user - does anyone know how to make this work?

How To Use Windows Authentication With MVC

Mar 17, 2011

I have an ASP.NET MVC 2 (.NET 3.5) application. It is hosted on IIS 6.

For the sake of this question I have two urls.

http://example.com/

http://example.com/admin

I want admin to be available to any user on the domain, and the root to be available to all users. The server is on the domain but the domain is example1.com, so they are not the same.

Since this is ASP.NET MVC there is no Admin folder to set rights on. I have tried setting the whole site to block anonymous request and have had it allowing all request. Then in the web.config I set it up to deny unauthenticated users in the admin folder and/or allow anonymous access to the root.

What I end up getting is a login prompt that doesn't work. I've tried the user name and example1username but it always fails to login.

Ssl - How To Preserve Authentication For Forms Authentication Cookie

Aug 19, 2010

We have a non-SSL ASP.NET web app that allows a user to login (ASP forms authentication, inproc).

Once authenticated, we redirect their browser to an external, SSL secured page on another web site / domain altogether that we do not control.

The client is redirected back to a pre-configured url on our original http web app when done.

However, the customer is then asked to "re-login" again on our side which is undesired...

It seems the forms authentication cookie is destroyed when transitioning between HTTP and HTTPS and back again.

How can I keep the forms authentication cookie alive so that the customer does not have to re-authenticate on the round trip?

Security :: Forms Authentication With A Secondary Authentication?

Feb 16, 2011

I'm developing an internal booking sytem. Users log in to the sytem and can view existing bookings and search for bookings. They can also create new or edit existing bookings. When completing such actions I need a confirmation prior to completing the booking or updating the recorded. The confirmation is based on a reauthentication of the user.... in otherwords he needs to enter his passord again.

How can I achieve this? The system is internam and I'm using Forms Authentication. I an also using roles as som of the admin forms can only be viewed by administrators.
