Security :: After Logging In How To Retrieve The User Name
Apr 26, 2010
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(txtUser.Text, false); After doing this, the user is logged in with the txtUser.text
But the question now is, how do i retrieve that user name from Authentication or whatever on other pages? is it possible or not?
Because i know that person stays logged in untill he logs out with this code: FormsAuthentication.SignOut();
And one more question i dont know is this one good for this or not how do i better check if the person is typed in correct name and pasword or not, with executescalar or executereader?

Im building a web application that charges for access on a per user basis. Ive used standard roles and membership for setting up accounts and logging in. I want to ensure that a client cant use the same user details to login more than once
ie if user abc1 is already logged in, someone else cannot login again using the same credentials

I am currently using the built in ASP login function... the destinationpageurl of that login function locates to "loginhome.aspx" for all users... but for one specific user ("Admin") it needs to link to "adminhome.aspx"... just wondering whats the best way to do this? Can I change the destinationpageurl of the login function depending on the user or creating an admin role so "If membershiprole = 'Admin' redirect to 'adminhome.aspx' End If" or can I just add some code behind the login function so "If User.login.Name = 'Admin' Then destinationpageurl = 'adminhome.aspx' End If" think I have already tried this on the login1_authenticate event but it didn't work

Two users using the same machine, same browser.
User 1 logs in the domain.
User 1 changes some data without saving it.
User 2 logs in the domain in a separate tab.
User 1 switches back to his tab and saves the data.
User 1 actually saved the data into User 2!!
This is caused by the following mechanism:
Different tabs in the same browser seems to share the same session id. We are storing user auth in cookie and the cookie is shared between tabs (same domain)
Therefore, when User 1 request to save, it is recognized as User 2 since the cookie has been updated to User 2.
So I'm wondering if there's any other methods to prevent this from happening, other than:
1. Use cookieless session so the session is embedded in uri.
2. Always include a hidden field in page to indicate which user owns the page.

I'm in the middle of moving a web application from IIS6 to IIS7. I've enabled "Windows Authentication" and added <deny users="?" /> to the authorization section of my web.config file. When the app was running on IIS6 my users where able to access the web app without logging in because their windows login was automatically recognized. This does not seem to be the case in II7. I can not get a value for "Current.User.Identity.Name" in my ASP.Net code.

I am new to asp.net's membership controls. I am trying to figure out how to make a public profile page that will display information about a site member to other users. I thought I would be able to use the profile class and just pass in a parameter such as user name. But I tried:
Profile.GetProfile("username")
'Where username = name of profile I want to retrieve
Response.Write(Profile.Title)
Response.Write(Profile.Company)
However, if the user is logged in this codee just brings back their details, not those of the username requested. What am I doing wrong?

I'm debugging some unexpected behavior and while tracing in to the .NET framework I see a bunch of stuff like this:
if (Logging.On) {
Logging.PrintInfo(Logging.Web, this, SR.GetString(SR.net_log_n_certs_after_filtering, filteredCerts.Count));
...
}
But (as expected by default) the execution steps right over these. Is there some way to turn on the logging? Or is that just something that the framework developers can do while making special builds of the framework?

I was adding login and logout functionality to my ASP.NET website. While I am able to make the user log in by checking the username and password but on some pages should be available only if he is logged in. I am doing this by storing the user's value in a session
Secondly, I am using a Link button which changes to Logged in as example. So, how does the user log out?

I have created a login page which uses the Login control. If the user is not already registered they a redirected to another page to register. My client wants them to be logged in from when they register, and taken to the main page of the application.
How do I log a user in manually, without using the Login control? Am using forms authentication, and have the dbo.aspnet table and stored procedures already created.

I did that and now can login again however can no longer logout. The controls are all on the masterpage as posted below

I'm using MS Enterprise Logging Application Block in an ASP.NET website.
For production launch, I will set up a log listener in one of these locations:
Sql Server database
Windows event log
Text files
Which has the least impact on performance?
NB - I can't switch to Log4Net or ELMAH at this point, so don't suggest that in your response.

I am using standard ASP.net security and want to how I go about prventing the same user from logging in twice.
If the user is already logged in and they log in again what I want to happen is for them to cancel the previous session and log that session out.
Can this be written into the webconfig file as part of the membership profile? I have tried to find this and it does not seem to be possible.

Im setting up a site with membership.
The db connection seems to work. I can create new users with the new user wizard control. And they show up in the databaser. But i cant log in. I use the log in control and just get "wrong password". I am sure i type the correct password as i made it very easy. here are my webconfig settings.
There is one thing i have no clue how to configure. The APPLICATION NAME. What is it? And what should i set it to?
<authentication mode="Forms">

Is there something here messing up my login functionality? I can't log in. Before when I was logged in, I couldn't log out. It seems to have started when I clicked on "Remember me". Could there be something conflicting with web.config and the aspnetdb profile provider service setting that was initially set regarding profiles/roles/access?

I have a requirement to log all/most forms authentication transactions that take place within my page. For example, if someone is kicked out because of forms authentication, I'd like to get their username, time when kicked off, and where this happened. Is there a good way to do this. Better yet, has anyone done this already and is willing to share some code or post a link?
