I think the title pretty much says what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to make several applications with C#, ASP.NET, and active directory. Right now, I'm trying to create a report for my manager that shows all the active directory attributes of the current user. Could someone show me the code for this. I would want to add a new row into a datagridview for each attribute.
View 1 RepliesI am currently using the ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider just for authentication on an internal business app built in asp.net. This works like a charm.
I am now looking to add some functionality to handle custom profile information for a user, ideally also stored in Active Directory.
For a simple example let's just say the custom attribute is FavoriteColor. Then the goal would be for my app to be able to read in this custom attribute for the authenticated user.
I have looked into ADAM a bit. That looks like it would be great for a Role Provider, but I haven't really found anything that indicates it would work well for a Profile Provider or if it would even let me store custom attributes like FavoriteColor. Maybe someone knows better?
I'm also pretty new to Active Directory so maybe there is even an option to store custom user attributes (like FavoriteColor) within it? In general I am just looking for ideas about the best way to implement this?
We are making a site in asp.net 3.5 C# and i am showing my all user activites on one page (i am making a call to db at page load) but to get updated user activities i have to refresh the page so that again one hit go to the db and get all updated data.
But i want to update this feature like this site : [URL]
Objective: i want when user open activity page first time then in first hit it will get 20 latest user activities but after that i dont want to make a database call for that again and again. but each new activity of user's will automatically append to my activity list one by one.
I'm trying to create an asp.net page where an administrator will be giving permission to people of different OU groups to view web pages. I need a dropdownlist of ALL the available OU's in the active directory. This list needs to not be limited to those OU's of the current user but all OU's of all the entire active directory. I've tried looking at code from [URL] but there isn't anything there that lists exactly what I am looking for. Does anyone know how to do this?
View 3 RepliesI've just started a small ASP.NET web application. In this project, I need to authenticate the users with Active Driectory. I managed to authenticate the users successfully with Active Directory. But with Authorization with Custom Role Provider, I'm so confused.You see, the user name and password are stored in AD. So, my approach is that after the LoggedIn event of the Login Control, I check if UserName is not yet stored in the Users table yet, then I will store the UserName there. Eventually, I have all the UserName of the AD users store in the Users table so I can assign Roles to the users.
Let's say I assigned UserA to RoleOne. After he logs in successfully, I do some query to look for his Roles.
Where do I keep the Role ticket? In the Cookie or in the session? How does the authorization of ASP.NET role provider work? I want to store the authentication ticket like ASP.NET role prover does too.
How to create a user in AD
View 5 RepliesI am trying to create a new user in AD using ASP.net. I have found a lot of information on viewing and logging into user accounts but little explaining how to create a new user.
View 1 RepliesHow can I active a user that has been created with Membership?
View 1 RepliesI have a web app that uses AD to authenticate the user which works great. But i received a request where a user that is outside of the Ad needs access to the application.
Is there a way to add this user manually (Maybe in web.config) to allow them to access the application?
We are coding an intranet site using .net DirectoryServices and AccountManagement to create a computer account in Active Directory with access rules allowing a specific user to add the computer to the domain. Has anyone had any success using the AccessRuleFactory method to set access rules? I'm stumped with a few aspects. So far, this is what we have...Using AccountManagement, we can easily add the computer:

Next we get the DirectoryEntry and ObjectSecurity for the computer. Also dim the ACE object:

I would like to read the extended attributes (in. an A.D. entry /Exchange advanced/Exchange custom attributes)
View 6 RepliesI've written a small ASP.NET 3.5 application to allow users to update selected account attributes on their own. Everything works fine when I use Basic Authentication, but because the dialog that is presented is less than ideal, I'd like to use forms authentication to give the users more instruction on how to log in. My problem is that in order for the user to update their account information, I have to have the application impersonate them for the update actions. I've scoured the internet trying to find a solution to my issue, but nothing fits or works. I have tried setting the web.config:
[Code]....
I also tried using the LogonUser method to create a user token and backend the authentication that way, and it doesn't work either.

I'm trying to show a user's roles in a label but here's what I get when I view the page in the browser:

As you can see instead of the roles, System.String[] shows in the label. How can I get the roles instead of that?
I am looking at displaying certain information from Active Directory within an ASP.NET web page/application to allow users of my organisation to update thCe specified fields. I have searched the internet for help and found windows forms based information, but nothing to really help me with ASP.NET, and anything that could possibly be of any assistance to me is written in C#. I have already built a logon form that hands forms based authentication against AD, and now want to display that authenticated user information.
View 1 RepliesMay i know how i can change postion of Create user button in Create USer Wizard as i want to change according to requirement!
View 4 RepliesI am using a create User Wizard for registering a user and have converted it to a a template to capture additional information. In the CreatedUserEvent handler in Code Behind I am getting the UserName of the new user and their unique GUID key. This is then added to a seperate data table with addditional info captured from the user. The textboxes within the create user Wizard have validation controls. If the user has missed an entry these fire and it shops the process of creating the user.
BUT If I then complete the textboxes and then click submit it says the USER NAME already Exists! This is not what I want as the User just needs to correct the errors in the form and they should be able to keep their iniital User Name choice. Do I need to change the Event handler and if so am I still able to capture the USerName and Key so that I can add the data to the other non membership table.
I'm using emails as the user name, and I've got requiresUniqueEmail="true" in the web.config.
I have an empty CreatingUser method, and in CreatedUser I perform a couple of table entries with the new user.
When I try to add a user with an email that's already in use, I get a the default success message. But no user is added, and
it doesn't reach the CreatedUser method.
i have a problem with the users authentication on my site. I made <authentication mode="Windows"> in my web.config. The LoginView shows "mycomputermyusername" if i request the page. So far as well. Now i want to login with a different username. Users are stored in an Active Directory. My questions: wich setting i have to do, that user's account and password checked by Active Directory? how can i force the system to make a new login? Logout doesn't work, i always see my on account.

I have a site created using .net and the ajaxcontroltoolkit. When some users log on they do not see the controls on the page. I can duplicate this if I disable active scripting in ie.

If so what was your solution?
