How can I use session variable to display user information after authenticated login like Address: 37, kings Road. Position: Secretary base on User ID
View 2 RepliesI have created a web application with 5 forms using asp.net & vb.net.
The system got more than 250 web clients.Â
My problem is when second user logs in to the web system, the second user overrides first user's details.Â
I want to keep user details and display login information on each 5 forms.
I have a online game (written in ASP) which i have finally decided to convert to ASP.NET. However i cannot seem to link the login ID's of users to their specific details in the database. I.E when Joe Bloggs logs in, he will be shown the team information for just his club, not every club. in ASP I use code similar to this below
[Code]....
im not convinced that is the right syntax to be using, but when i execute the code in Query Builder it is showing me the correct data (that i expect to see). So im wondering if there is something else im missing? Is there something extra that i need to be adding in Web.Config file or elsewhere?
I have a web application on IIS that will authenticate using windows authentication (Active Directory). So when they access the application http://iisserver/webappname/ it ask for username pwd and domain. (currently working) How can I get information of the authenticated user in the web app through c#?
View 3 RepliesI am building a RESTful service using WCF. I basically want to save information about a user when they authenticate to the WCF service. For example I want to save their first name, last name, account number , and password in order to access the information in other requests in the same session. Since this information is sensitive I can not store it in a cookie.
I don't want to use asp.net session state because I plan to run this WCF as a Windows Service. Is there something (class, Assembly) I can use that can save user information and retrieve it per request or do I have to create a custom solution that will create an entry in a database every time a client authenticates to the WCF service.
I have dropdown and I have to bind that dropdown on the basis of user login so that when the page load the drop down should show only one item on the basis of user login and i may have use that dropdown item as a search parameter.I have a objectdatasource named TblFltReg having one of the fields named "Owner" which is the SectionId.
There is a table named TblSections having "SectionId" and "Description".User can be selected in a Session variable.I have another table "Users" having "UserName", "UProfile", "SectionId".Actually I dont know how can I get SectionId from Users table into Session variable.So I have two tasks: one to get SectionId into Session Variable and another is to show dropdown item on the basis of User login.Hope you understand.
How can I perform that task?

In other words, what should I do to get true when I ask User.Identity.IsAuthenticated without login?
Should I create a cookie manually? if so, what's its name, what's its value!!
I am creating a website that allows users to login to their gameserver remotely and send / receive commands. The connection happens via an UDP socket and requires simply the IP of the gameserver, and a password.
On my website, users can add servers to their accounts, where the server IP and password are stored in a database. Then they can connect to any of their servers, which creates a new Socket object and connects to it using the IP and password of that server.
This Socket object, embedded in an object that also stores the server IP and password, is stored in a Session variable when the user connects, and is retrieved on every page. For example, there's a page where the user can view a list of the players on the server (and kick/ban them), a page with server settings, a page with messages, etc. All these pages require the Socket connection to get their information (they send a certain command and parse the response). When I need to send a command via the socket, I need to send the password of the server each time (otherwise it does not work). My question now is: how secure is this? The password of a server is sensitive information*, but I am storing it in a session variable and sending it (using the Send command of the Socket object) to the server.
i think the Session variable is stored on memory on the server, so I don't think so, but I'm really unsure about these kind of things and I'd like to be certain that my website is secure. Well, I think it will never be 100% secure but I want it to be at least not worth the effort for someone to hack the password. If it takes a lot of trouble then people wouldn't bother, but I don't want to find out that people's passwords are being thrown out on the street (so to speak) and that my website is completely insecure...
Followed the code sample of Chapter 10 (Logging in) of the Book, Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0, I created an ASP.NET 3.5 website with Forms Authentication. The sample code used Website Administration Tool (WAT) to manage the users, roles, and authorization.When running in the ASP.NET Development server environment, I can first login, then click to open the links for each for the 3 roles.
However when running the sample code in the IIS server environment, I can login but can not open the links for the role subfolders.Clicking each link popped up an error message for opening a login.aspx from the specific subfolder. I don't have a Login.aspx file in each subfolder.The 3 role subfolders were configured as the virtual folders in the IIS Server. Why the sample code worked fine inASP.NET Development server environment, but got an error message from theIIS Server environment? Why an authenticated user can not open the subfolder homepage?
I have made a web page in which there is login screen when user login it goes next page but my problem is if i directly enter the url of that page it open. I want it should not open unless the user log in...Â
View 1 RepliesIt has been a while since I've built an entire ASP.NET web application from the ground up but I'm about to jump in again. I've built many individual pages, controls, web parts, etc. recently, but nothting 'soup to nuts' for a couple of years. My question is in regards to login security control. I do not want to use the built in ASP.NET Memberhip functionality for various reasons and already have custom code that authenticates the user, controls passwords, login attempts, etc. I am really concerned though about how to validate that the user is logged in (and the best way to do it). For instance, right now I use a Base page that all of my .aspx pages inherit from. In the OnInit() method, it executes code which includes:
[Code]....
I set the Session["LoggedIn"] object to "true" after the user has successfully been authenticated at the Login.aspx page. So, when a user attempts to access any page in the application, if that Session object isn't true, they will be redirected (you can't visit any page without being logged in). This all works great, but I'm thinking I need something more and that brings me here. First, do I need more? Is this enough? I was thinking about creating a cookie with a GUID value and the SessionID (both encrypted perhaps?) and adding that to my Base page so it checks both the current Session["LoggedIn"] value
and the values in the cookie.
I want to display all the session information of my asp.net page (aspx) in the page. How can I do that? The programming language is C#.

i m developing an application in .NET mvc2. i m using aspnetMembershipProvider for User registration and related activities. i need some custom information about user that i stored in a separate table (sysUser for example) and linked it to aspnetUser table through foreign key. after Login i need to fetch user's credentials from sysUser table and push it to the session. For this Account controller's Logon method seemed best to me and i pasted following code in my Logon ActionResult
[Code]....
The code is working perfectly for me and put my desired information in the session but the thing is that if a user selects Remember me and on his next visit he won't have to Log in and i would not find my desired information in the Session. where should i put my code that stores the user information in the session.
i have a list of fields that i would store for all the user session. I thought to create a class, insert the information in it and store the class in the session but i'm not sure this is the best way to do it (performances, etc). I should have a list of these informations that i can display in views, i can delete and i can update. How could i do this?

View 3 RepliesWhen a use is logged in (Through open-id) we are creating a session variable named "UID" and storing the unique user-id in it. Later we are checking the session to see if the user is logged in. I think this is not the right way, but I could not force the team to change this, as I cannot show how this implementation can be cracked. why (If yes) this implementation is bad?
