I have develop an ASP.NET website and I want store some uploaded files in a shared location in some different server. On that server one user has the access.
how it is possible to get the access of the shared location on the server with my Web site?
I have a site almost finished that uses ASP.Net membership, forms authentication and roles. There are one or two requirements remaining and I'm not even sure how to properly approach one of them.
The site I've created is going to provide service ONLY through SSL, if that matters. Yes, I'll redirect a request that lands on port 80 but the intent is to encrypt everything.
Is there a "best practice" for creating a session with my site, from another site? In other words the company is building a marketing page that has spaces for a login and password. I can find lots of posts about passing a username and password to another
site to start a session, but very few if any about receiving the username and password.
If anyone can point me to an article or posting with a code sample where the login control of a forms-authenticated site is used as the target of a form hosted as part of a different web page/application on a different host, it'd be awesome.
To be clear, the scenario is essentially "brochureware website on a 3rd-party host" providing the visitor the ability to log in to a secure site on a more "internal" server.
when I am trying to run the asp.net application from the shared location(not from the local machine), I have encountered a security exception as 'request for the permission of type 'system.web.aspnet hosting permission'. I have given the full trust rights to share folder.. but still I have got the same error..
View 1 RepliesI am using form authentication in my website. I have a scenario wherein the user is authenticated but the session has timed out. So, i would like to initialize some session variables in Session_Start of Global.asax (First i check if Request.IsAuthenticated=True). For that i required the name of the user who authenticated. On .aspx pages we can get it using Page.User.Identity.Name but how to get it in global.asax page.

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've a default.aspx page in my application's root folder. I added a a page in the root of inetpub that redirects requests to the default page. The idea is that the user need only enter the server name to get to the default page. How can I set things up so that all users have access to the default.aspx and that they only have access to the other pages once they've been authenticated?
I am using Windows Integrated Security and the users are being challenged and authenticated properly. I want them to be able to access Default.aspx without any challenges.
(On a side note which may answer this question, when using WIS does the user *allows* have to be challenged? Isn't it possible to pass through their Windows User and ID without the prompt?)

I got only one ideas to control with the session. When user log into the master page, I insert the current login user and session ID and active status to the SQL table. if user logout manually or close the browser or session expired, I want to change the inactive status. So I can check how many active user are there and the system can prompt the required info to the user. But now, I can't find the soultion to change the inactive
status in above condition.
That doesn't seem right to me. I m sure I 'm making incorrect assumption about this matter.
Show Authenticated user on Intranet:
Response.Write("UserName is: " + User.Identity.Name);
In Web.config:
<authentication
mode="Windows"/>
<authorization>
<allow
users="?"/>
</authorization>
This works fine on local server. But not on Intranet.
On Intranet, it was working fine on IIS 6.0.
But on IIS 7.5, the user doesn't get authenticated.
Since I need user click a link from his/her email once they registered, currently after user registered, and click the "Continue" button (CreateUserWizard1_ContinueButtonClick) or CreateUserWizard1_UserCreatedSuccess, it will be authenticated, how do I prevent this until they click the active link from their email?

I am using the sqlmembership provider with the login control from the toolbox. I want to capture the validated username after the user is authenticated. I need the username so that when the user adds or modifies a record i can have an audit trail. where is the best place to capture the validated user right after authentication? Ideally, i would like to capture it on the login form but how?
View 3 RepliesI have been searching since some days for the best approach one can have in order to allow an authenticated user to change his/her email address.
This is the code I have but apparently it doesn't work and it doesnt even gives a error. The application seems to ignore it:
Change email address:
<asp:TextBox ID="txtEmail" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:TextBox ID="txtPassword" runat="server"></asp:TextBox><br />
<asp:Button ID="changemailbtn" runat="server" Text="Button" />
<asp:Label ID="lblErrors" runat="server" EnableViewState="False"

I am new in my orgainisation and i am assigned a task relating to Windows Authentication. But I've never worked with windows authentication and IIS before.
My Task is: Create simple webapp which shows the authenticated user (i.e. if I connect, it will show myName). It shud be working in IIS7.5 as well.
So I have a fairly simple web site which allows an Administrator to edit some data in a database which is displayed on some web pages.
The main navigation on the site is shown in the code snippet below. The Admin link goes to a Login.aspx which allows the Administrator to log in - once authenticated they get sent to the data edit page.
So my question is, how could I dynamically add a link to the data edit page in the <ul> list below once the user is authenticated ?
This would allow the authenticated user to see links to the secure pages in the main navigation bar.

I m trying to use the profile system to get information of the authenticated user form the data base, just like the session system : the user is authenticated then I set same variable with information of this user coming from data base !I am familiar with PHP so i m trying to do it like that !Also, i woul like to join my own data base and the asp.net membership database !

I would still need to log many other items regarding the user and also the site, like the time spent by the user on the site, no: of currently logged in users on the site. Can anyone here suggest me as to how do I capture those items?? let me know if I am going in the right direction too.....?? If you can provide me with some links on this "user activity logging for windows authenticated applications".
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 an asp.net app written in c# and want to log into a shared folder on another server using a different user name and password.
How do I and can you give me some example code to allow me to connect to a shared folder on another server using a different user name and password.
Once connected, I wish to update a txt file
StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(@\flcy_fluencyDNC_ListsTenantDNC.txt);

I have a shared module in an asp.net web app which gets various information about a group or user. Since the Iuser account on the web does not have enough rights to query the AD, I need to supply an appropriate userid and passcode for the directoryentry in the shared code. Since my credentials so the have the appropriate rights to query the AD I like to impersonate myself(user.identity). This works fine for a webpage, but I can't pass the user.identity object to shared code. I get an error. Is there a way to pass the user.identity object to a shared function in another module?

<b>Problem:</b> If user is logged at a client machine and tries to login from other client machine at the same time, then he should be prompted that "You are already logged in, Do you want to continue?" on continue user should be logged out from other machine and logged in to current machine.
On our website users can sign up. The sign up controls (converted to a template) has the usual text boxes and then the create user button. When pressing this button the account is created. After reloading the website, the user can see his credentials in his 'my account' tab. Question: How can we access the newly created user (especially his userid) right after the create user button was clicked? Right now this does not work, we can only start accessing this after the page has been reloaded. But surely the account is created the instant the button was pressed. I have tried this:
MembershipUser myObject = Membership.GetUser();
UserID = (System.Guid)(myObject.ProviderUserKey);
But it looks as if the user is not yet logged in at this stage. Can this somehow be forced so that we can access the newly created userid right after the user has clicked the create user button?
I would like to connect to a password protected shared location that has an access database using an ASP page. I have the user name and password needed to connect to the shared location but I am not sure how to set up the connection string in order to get this done. The access database I would like to connect to does not need a username or password, only the shared location does.
