Security :: Browser Not Asking For Remember Password?
Dec 13, 2010
We have a page where we ask users to enter only password in "enter password page" (the user name is taken in previous page).
The Issue is that when the page that asks user to enter password is opened in browser and when user enters password and clicks submit button, the browser does not ask the user to remember/save password,
Due to this when user opens that page next time, user have to retype the password.
You might have seen that in almost all sites whenever we open a login page, the browser asks weather we want to remember the password for next visit.
From the research done so far, we have found that browser remembers password only when the username and password textboxs are on the same page. But in our case we split down the username textbox and password textbox in two different pages.
Is there any way to let browser ask to user weather to remember/save password in "enter password page"?
In login control of asp.net there is a remember me checkbox. What is the functionality of this checkbox? What it does basically? Is there any way to put space between checkbox and its associated label?
I saw Windows Live login control has an extra checkbox Remember my password? How can we achieve this feature in our custom login control? I have read many tutorials but I can not able to solve my queries.
On the website I am working on it has been deployed but the problem I am facing is that when I enter a username and password and click on the check box to remember...It remembers the password for sometime.. wen I login in after 5 or 10 minutes it remembers the password but aftr a long period of time like about 2hours it forgets the username and password and i have to type it in all over again... this dint used to happen with the old server as even I could sign in and it remembered the password the next day until i log off... what can be the reason
i have a login, and wanted to know how i could use the remember me function, (so each time the user visits the site, even though they are not logged in, it would auto log them in) but without using the actual remember me checkbox. Is there any extra code i need to write, and if so, what?
im having a login control in my website with a remember me option. i check the remember me but it does not remember me. here is a part of my web.config. i browsed over the other answers on this forum but nothing :( I also have the cookies allowed
I am new to c# and i have problem in using login control. I made a simple login page and it works fine but i dont know how to use the remember me next time option.
I would like to set the Login which will log auto when he return to site, if the user hasent logged off the site.and if he enter the site again he'll be logged in already.
I'm currently developing a website using .net MVC 3 and I'm on the authentication layer...Here is the scenario: user is logged with the "remember me" option checked : a user Session is created on the server as well as the authentication cookie on the client side.The Session timeout is set to 20 minutes.After 25 minutes of inactivity the user goes back onto the website and Session, now expired, does not exist anymore but the authentication cookie still exists
I am using Forms Authentication in a new ASP.NET 3.5 Application.I have created the Tables in my database and run the Web Site Administration Too.When I try to create a user I get a password error no matter what I throw at it and I am becoming sure of that this is a symptom of an a setup error and not a password problem.One of the things that I notice is that my aspnet_Applications is empty and I am not sure what is supposed to fill it.I have tried to delete all the aspnet tables and done the procedure again but with the same result.
I 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 just begin creating a website for an organization. First page to be displayed in the login page. I dont have any knowledge in ASP.NET Security. On Login page, i want to display UserName field as disabled with the useralias of the user who currently logged into Windows. Password user has to provide and it should be that user's windows password.
How do i validate that password that user has entered is his windows password?
This code worked until I published a recent set of changes to the web site. It's very strange behavior that I am having trouble debugging. Basically, I implemented some custom code to allow custom configuration of login timeouts from an app settings variable.
When debugging the application, if I click remember me or not, Login works perfectly. Once I post the updated code to the live server, login only works if I have the Remember Me option unchecked. If I check remember me, it does not log in, and it cycles the user back to the default web page. If I access the site from IE on the live server, remember me works correctly.
I am developing a shopping cart with asp.net and sqlexpress. I am using aspnet authentication components to create a backend page. I designed the site to let in only authorized users in.
Yesterday, I forget my password to login to backend and asked system recover my password. with recover password of the asp.net I was able to receive the temp password. I took that and logged in, of course asp.net forward me to password change component which I am having problem with.
Every time I change my password , password change shows that I was successfull but after clicking on the continiue button password change component comes back. I went to properties of password change component and entered the main default page as destination but it is not helping.
I close the IE clear the cache , even restart the machine. When I login always taking me to the password change page.
Is there a way to assign a value to the password and confirm password fields of the CreateUserWizard control programmatically when the page loads? The CreateUserWizard.Password property is read-only.
I would like to encrypt the password and store it in DB. And if user forgots the password and request for password i have to send him a dummy password to his mail id how can i implement this if any code available At the time of registration i have to encrypt or salt the password and save it to DB..
