We are developing an application which having two login pages. The problem now is that in the session timeout, the page is redirected to one page which is given in the config file. Is there is any way we can customize the way in which it should redirect to which page depending upon the page where the session timeout is happening.
View 5 RepliesWe're developping an application that uses forms authentication and URL rewriting (www.urlrewriter.net). In order to make extension-less URL rewriting possible we had to add a default application mapping for the asp.net aspnet_isapi.dll.
The problem we're experiencing now is that when the website is accessed by http://www.myapp.com/ then the aspnet_isapi.dll gets the request and forms authentication forwards it to our login site, so the user gets redirected to http://www.myapp.com/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f instead of having default.aspx displayed (which is allowed to anyone).
Here's the part of web.config dealing with forms auth:
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
<allow users="*" />
</authorization>
<authentication mode="Forms" >
<forms slidingExpiration="true" cookieless="UseCookies" defaultUrl="default.aspx" loginUrl="default.aspx" name="gzfb_site_test" timeout="525600"></forms>
</authentication>
</system.web>
<location path="default.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<allow users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
I did quite some research on this problem but didn't find any solution. Is this scenario possible at all, or does default application mapping and forms auth using <deny users="?"/> interfere by design?
P.S. the problems only manifest when running on IIS 6, the ASP.net Development Server handles it without any problems
I am in the process of designing application in case user authentication if failed i need to redirect to default page (NT Authentication). Is there any way you can redirect the user on IIS if the user is fail go through the NT authenticaiton at IIS level.Options 1 : Always land the user to defalut page and validate there and redirect to site based on the access give the directory level access. I am looking if there any options to let the user to default page in case user access is denied.
View 4 Repliesthe default ASP.NET Forms Authentication cookie sets it's name as ".ASPXAUTH". Notice the first character is a period? Is there a particular reason for this? Like, does this have an impact on domain names or subdomains for the target domain.
Or is it purely some random thing an MS dev person came up with (maybe to help out the ordering of the cookies, when they were debugging or something .. as text with periods prolly get listed before other strings)?
What do I need to do in order to change an application from Forms Authentication to windows authentication?
View 2 RepliesI have developed the authenticated rss feed using the basic http authentication for my site.I also have the admin module for the site which uses the Asp.net Forms Authentication .Both are in the same project.When i turn on the forms authentication module to None in my web.config.My rss feed authentication works fine(the browser pop up the dialog box for the username and password) and upon entering the username and password the rss feed gets displayed.But with forms authentication turn on when i click the rss feed link i am getting redirected to the administrator login page.
If i set my authentication mode to none than the feed works like dream but the admin module do not work as it uses forms authentication.
How can i resolve the conflict for that one.I am using the asp.net mvc filter on my feed contoller to pop up the dialog box for the username and password.

I'm developing an internal booking sytem. Users log in to the sytem and can view existing bookings and search for bookings. They can also create new or edit existing bookings. When completing such actions I need a confirmation prior to completing the booking or updating the recorded. The confirmation is based on a reauthentication of the user.... in otherwords he needs to enter his passord again.
How can I achieve this? The system is internam and I'm using Forms Authentication. I an also using roles as som of the admin forms can only be viewed by administrators.
I have two login control in the index page of my website,each of two different usertypes. there are two user types brands and creatives.the branded user will log in to brands bin(brandsbin.aspx) the Creative user will sign in to creativebin(creativebin.aspx) i am using forms authentication for signin. so i am confused here to to rediret to default path for each user types. how to set default page for each user types. in the web config file i have added like this
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="forms" loginUrl="Index.aspx" defaultUrl="brandsbin.aspx" path="/" timeout="15" slidingExpiration="true"></forms>
</authentication>
I have spent a day and a half trying to resolve this issue. Bascially have an ASP.net website with Forms Authentication on IIS7 using Framework 4.0.
The Authorization stuff seems to be working perfectly for every scenario with the exception of hitting it with no document specifed (Should resolve to Default Doc).
For example [URL] works perfectly, this page should allow anon access as specified in the web.config.
but if I hit [URL] Directly it redirects to the login page with Return URL set to "/" or Login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2f
Some things I have tried:
1) Set Authentication to None and then the Default document worked so thats not the issue.
2) Added DefaultDocument attribute to Web.config
3) Deleted all entries for in Default Document list in IIS except for Default.aspx
4) Added MachineKey entry in Config
5) Toggled from Integrated to Classic pipeline in IIS
Here is what's in my config:
[code]...
In asp.net we specify the redirect url when using forms authentications like this:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="myApp" loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" defaultUrl="default.aspx" path="/" requireSSL="false"/>
</authentication>
this means that when a user log in, will be redirected to "default.aspx" using this method
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(IDTextBox.Text, RememberCheckBox.Checked);
Now is it possible to make the user choose which page to be redirected to prior to login? for example the user chooses from a list the page to login to prior to login then when authenticated be redirected to this page instead of the default.aspx page. is that possible and if so how can this be done?
I am trying to secure very mixed content that is located in an ASP.NET directory. For purposes of this question, it can be ~/MyApp/.
I want all of the content in the directory and its subdirectories restricted to authenticated users. The default.aspx page, though, should be accessible to everyone. This is the web.config in that directory:
[Code]....
Now if you are an unauthenticated user, everything works fine if you request [code]....
The problem occurs in that visitors do not always request "Default.aspx". We have a default document configured so that they get Default.aspx even if they just request "/MyApp". An authenticated user works fine, but an unauthenticated user is directed to the login page.
Now I know that essentially this happens because even though the request for "/MyApp/" will actually end up serving up "/MyApp/Default.aspx", the security system is only checking for "/MyApp/" since that is what I requested. That is then getting the default security for the directory.
How can you configure an exception to allow access when no particular file is requested in the directory??
Is there some dependency between DefaultDocumentModule and UrlAuthorizationModule? In this environment, the UrlAuthorizationModule has been removed and re-added in order to make sure it fires for non-managed requests. I would not expect that to change the order of execution, though, since UrlAuthorizationModule usually goes after DefaultDocument.
A workaround could be to set up the opposite security with the directory being open, and then trying to secure individual files. Because of the (changing) number of files, and extensions, etc, and the fact that you cannot use wildcards in a <location>, this is not really a workable solution for me.
This could be very straight forward for some of you, but I got caught up. I am doing very simple test - browsing from IIS Manager to see the default page or "under Construction", however I am being challenged to provide my login credential . When I provide my login credential, I am able to see the default page. I wanted to see the default page without providing my credential since Enable anoymous access + basic authentication I am simply wanted to see the default page asit is working on other servers except this one. I have included screen print to make sure may question is clear.

View 1 RepliesI needed information regarding the capabilities & integration of AzMan tool with Asp.net.Currently, I got a Sharepoint 2007 website along with ASP.NET 2008 where I am using Form Based Authenication.Now, the requirement is any user within a domain registered in AD should be able to login in website through intranet.
Can I acheive this using AzMan, or I need to create two websites one with FBA for internet users and the other one for the intranet users with AD authenication. Also my intenet website is deployed and in use where usermapping and roles are already created, so using this tool what will be the impact on existing webiste.
I have to invoke SSIS packages from web service in the most secure way. I think that windows authentication will be secure but i am not sure. I do not have much knowledge about how to achieve this and the information on the internet is very distributed.
View 1 RepliesWe use Sharepoint to control our websites. We build the sites, then load them into the sharepoint server. My question is if I use windows authentication, how can I get my role security in my web config file to coencide with the asp.net controls that use the Forms authentication. Is there a differenence? Our security uses a session variable for security but there is no where to set up their permissions except in active directory. I hope this makes sense because I would like to implement the LoginView with Role groups but how can I give them the role="administrator"? Do I have to go into active directory and give them these permissions(would take awhile due to the size of the company)? Or do I have to set up priveladges in the web.config file for each user(difficult I think)?
View 5 RepliesI'm writing a simple Intranet application using windows authentication. I want to restrict access to Safe/UCantSeeMe.aspx. I am aware of the AuthorizeAttribute, but this only works on methods. I also found a good post on doing this with the MVC pattern, but I'm not using MVC. This can be done with roles in forms based security. I read on MSDN that using windows based security means roles are based on groups, but it doesn't go into any detail. how can I restrict access to Safe/UCantSeeMe.aspx?
View 1 RepliesWe are using membership provider for LDAP authentication. It is working as it should.
But what all configuration settings I have to do so that
all the future requests to this application run under the security context of the Logged in user account not through the some default user set in IIS.
We need to have this working because all the permissions on the database are based on the logged in user.
We are using form authentication for LDAP authentication. And having impersonation = true in web.config.
I have an application that has a user Login Control (provided by ASP). I am just now working with the integration of a dataBase created in MS visual studio 2010, to a developed website created in MS visual web developer 2010. My main goal is to create an authentication ticket that enables a user to be able to see a dataBase information only after that user has been successfully authenticated.
Up to now I'm able to see the dataBase when i run the website even if I'm not log-in, how i can create a home page that tells the user to log-in and once that user has successfully log-in it redirects the user to another page where the user can see the database and how I can add information to that dataBase only to specific members
I have the same exact problem here [URL] I have a multi-project solution with role based security. I login with admin and hit logout. Then, I can login with a user that has a different role and access an admin page by typing the address. Once I try to do something on that admin page that postbacks then I get kicked out and redirected to the login page. If I don't write in redirect to login page in logout page, I have to hit logout twice for logout to work properly. Also, it works fine if I close the browser and run a new browser.
Web.config:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="AppAuth" path="/" loginUrl="login.aspx" protection="All"
timeout="5" slidingExpiration="true" defaultUrl="default.aspx"></forms>

Something else I am wondering is if there is a way to redirect a logged in user to default page instead of login page when they try to access a page they don't have a permission for access.
I understand that we can easily secure the menu pages by enabling SecurityTrimming and putting role information in web.sitemap.
But my problem is that we have to use a 3rd party authentication piece. The ASP.NET application gets the UserId and roles from the authentication module.
I need to show/hide ASP.NET pages based on the incoming user's roles.
Is it possible somehow to use web.sitemap with these roles?
Or should I come up with my own way to map a web page to role/s?
I am developing a small website in vs-2005.
Here I am using forms authentication and I have used an access database. I have put the db in App_Data folder and declared the connectionstring in web.config. The problem I am facing is that when I request any page without logging in the browser displays the requested page. At the bottom of the page there is a script error when I check the details it says Sys is not defined. Has this something to do with this issue??
In web.config file I have added the following lines in the <system.web></system.web> section.

</authentication>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
<!--<allow users="*" />-->
</authorization>
On login button click after comparing userid & password I am using the foll stmts:-
If code = 0 Then ' code 0 means match for userid and pwd
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(txtuserid.Text, False)
Else
Response.Redirect("~/Default.aspx")
End If
