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.
I 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.
View 1 RepliesI want to have my code fetch the authenticated user name that is running my code. There's a line or two of code that will accomplish this and I had it but I've misplaced it.
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"

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 to create a text box where if user will enter something it should show the values from database like google shows.e.g If i press a it should display a if i have entered AJ it should show all the list which start from AJ.Same like google.

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.

the Web Part for anonymous user and authenticated user is displayed differently. I faced this problem twise. First time when used Silverlight control in the Web Part and second time when used devexpress control in the Web Part. In both cases problem was with displaying for anonymous user. Silverlight control didn't display. Devexpress control lost it's styles. Both controls had properties that pointed to files. Silverlight control property pointed to the XAP file, and Devexpress control property pointed to the CSS file. It seems to me, that for anonymous user the Web Part cannot find this path or doesn't allow to link to other files.
