I am working on membership concepts in asp.net. Now i want to reset new password and getpassword for specific user.
this is my web.config code:
<add name="MySqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="SQL2005DB380ConnectionString" applicationName="MyAppName" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Encrypted" enablePasswordReset="true" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="1"
passwordAttemptWindow="10" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>
How can I get old password and reset new password.
Does anyone has a solution (sample code) for the following features:
Create a randomGuid/Cryptographically strong random number Send a unique URL containing the random number to the user's email address When confirmed, the user is asked to change password
My provider is currently parametrized this way:

The security issues with this type of procedure have been discussed here before.

View 5 RepliesI have written a simple jQuery dialog box that will appear in an asp panel if the logged in user has not reset their password in the last 90 days. This is working great, however when the user types in their password and presses submit to insert the new password into the database, the parent page is posting back before the click event is fired on the user control.
Here is how it is set up:
default.aspx
<asp:Panel ID="pnlTest" runat="server" Visible="false">
<div id="dialog" title="Password must be reset">
<cms:ResetPassword runat="server" ID="reset" />
[Code]....
Whenever I click the button to change the password, the default page is calling a postback and it is blanking out the text that was input to change the password, so when the click function gets called the strings come through as "" and it throws an error.
I want to get code for reset password based on passwordquestion and passwordanswer in membership.

View 2 RepliesIs there a way to reset a user's password while logged in as an administrator? I just had to delete a user and re-create him in order to achieve the same affect of resetting his password, so I'm wondering if there is a better way to reset a password.
View 1 Repliesser enters email addressafter submit, an email is sent to the user The email will include a link that will take the user to a reset password page.Now, how do I fetch user's ID based on the email address and encrypt it? Then what should link be? Like, what I want is fetch the User ID then encrypt it somehow so that the link doesn't contain the actual ID and that link will take the user to a page that will have textboxes to reset the password. I am just confused how to go about it.Also is this the secure way? To reset a password like this?
View 2 RepliesI am creating a website for reset the password in one of the application from the back end.
I have created a webpage with only one button called "RESET".
If user click the button, it should check the user have already access the application from the "USER" table. If no access, the message appears "You do not have an access."
If yes, next step whether the user have authenticate. If yes update the encrypted password from new table called "UMRESET" to the application table "USER" password.
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?
View 1 RepliesI have a custom membership user class and custom MembershipProvider working against database. Due to security reasons the user passwords are stored in the database as hashed values. So my procedure
public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password) is
{
//select hashed password from db
return (EncodePassword(password) == dbpassword)
}

When a user that has their IE set to save passwords hits my "Reset Password" form, the first text box set with TextMode set to "Password" is populated with the users saved password. Understandable, this is not the affect I would like as this is their "old" password. I cannot set the text of a text box with mode set to "Password" (naturally). Does someone know how to suppress or clear this value when IE is saving passwords?

How can I do this. This is the set up. I have few fields and user enters those fields and also enters the password, and submits the form. It is kind of like signature... i am looking for something like..
If txtPassword.text = membershipprovider password
{
//do this...
}
On registration user provides an email, the password must be mailed to the email ...
View 1 RepliesI simply want to know how to manually check if the value a user has provided for the answer to their security question matches their current answer on record. I want to use the build in support of the ASP.Net membership and membershipuser objects.
I see that via the passwordrecovery control that the actual answer can be returned. However I am currently not using this control and it would take a good bit to integrate it as it does not meet our user's requirements.
In a worst case scenario, getting the actual answer (like the passwordrecovery control does) and manually checking it in our application would be acceptable.
A best case scenario is some sort of API where I can pass in the user name and the answer to their security question that was provided and simply get an indication of whether answer was correct or not.
There seems to be something wrong with the create user wizard?I am using hashed password storage. When I change it to clear storage I see the user's password is being stored as something completly different than what they typed in.Example: changeme1 now equates to something like: 4W*KQQ4%=SIf I use 4W*KQQ4%=S as the password to login with it works but changeme1 does not.When I use the reset password wizard it updates the password just fine and it works when I login next.Any clues what could be causing this?

View 8 RepliesI had been trying to solve this but there is a hidden key i wish someone point me to.
I had a simple membership database with users in first the Membership Provider configured for clear password to retrieve the original password .
Now a new requirement say that the password must be hashed and reset .
I configure the Membership password to hash , and Implemented the Reset Password Module.
My problem is as follow.
If the user is new registered user with the new configuration the password and the security answer is hashed.
also when I go and reset the password it continue to be hashed.
Now I thought that with new configuration if any previous user with clear text configuration , If he use the password Reset module , because my configuration now is hashed , I expected that the new password and security answer will be hashed . what happen is old user continue in clear text even if the configuration is hashed. so If I had new users everything is fine.
old users Membership Provider somehow know they had been stored in clear text and it keep change password and security answer in clear text . If I delete this user and create it , Membership Provider understand that everything will be hashed. I need to know how it know this , I need to migrate users not to delete and recreate users .
Also if there are no solution for that , I wish Microsoft Consider it in future cause it is a real user scenario, that can happen imagine a business system that related to membership user Id , deleting users and recreate them is not a solution .
I have created a small asp.net application that allows users to reset their passwords. I am able to retrieve that last time the password was reset from the Directory Searcher object, but I'm having trouble with checking the timespan since the last password reset. The users can reset their passwords again after 24 hours have passed, otherwise they well get an error stating that they are not able to update their password at this time. Any recommendations on how to best go about doing this?

passwordLastSet = DateTime.FromFileTime((Int64)(result.Properties["PwdLastSet"][0])).ToString();

How can I use Membership.GeneratePassword to return a password that ONLY contains alpha or numeric characters? The default method will only guarantee a minimum and not a maximum number of non alphanumeric passwords.
View 2 RepliesAm using ASP.NET membership authentication in a small website and i just noticed some thing funny during testing. Am trying to enable user to change their login password any time they wish, i dragged a change password control to the form, i changed the password for my test account, but now all passwords are still working.
I can login with the old password as well as the new password with this particular test account. If i try with any other random characters as the new password, i cant successfully login (which OK). But if type the old password, am able to login, if i type the new password, am still able to login, am finding this very strange.
I have a small requirement i.e if any user forgot the passwordhe would like to reset the password by contacting an admin or mailing. Now if the admin logged in he will check for the user name if the user name matches i would like to send a mail to that user by resetting the password
