Security :: Forms Authentication And Databse Connectivity?
Jul 31, 2010
I have an asp.net3.5 app. It has multiple client folders in the root folder. There are multiple web.config files. One is in root folder and one each in client folder. The web.config in client folder contains connection string for the database to be connected. I am using FORMS authentication. Each client has a specific page which are lying in root folder. This page redirects to the client specific folder and user logs in the application using the one more login page which is in client folder. And this page uses the connection string which in this client specific folder web.config.Now my problem is that I am not able to connect to the database using the client specific web.config on my live server. Live server is a Windows 2008 Datacenter and IIS7 machine. And my local system is XP IIS6 machine.Please help me to resolve this issue. Or how can I configure my application on IIS 7 &Win2008 DC system in WINDOWS authentication mode?

I 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.

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.

I set authentication mode to Windows in the web.config and I enable Windows Authentication and disable the Anonymous Authentication in IIS 7 on win 7, but HttpContext.Current.User is always null.It works fine when I host the web app in IIS 6.0.

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.

We 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)?

I'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?

We 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>
</authentication>
[Code]....
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 am new to asp.net (I may use some incorrect termology while I explain my issue...) and need some help with DropDownList in Gridview. Currently I have a GridView set up with three Columns bound to a database: Column1 - some kinda of index, Column2 - string, Column3 - DropDownList(called Active). So far when I build the page, all the columns show up and the DropDownList appears and the values are bound correctly. I want to change a value in the DropDownList and automatically update that value in my database.
I have set AutoPostBack = true and I made a DataObject (called UpdateActive) to update the database (it takes 2 inputs, the Column1 index and Column3 DropDownList value).However, I don't know how to find the row that I am changing, is there a way to figure out what row it is (like finding the Column 1 index?). Also, I don't want to have to click a button to update the data.

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 mode="Forms">
<forms name=".ASPXFORMSDEMO" loginUrl="Default.aspx" protection="All" path="~/" timeout="30"/>
</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

I am using ASP.Net's forms authentication, but do not want the default behavior of redirecting to a login page when a restricted area is accessed. Instead I would like to invoke a javascript JQuery dialog for the login on the current page, preventing the content behind from loading.My only issue is that by default the forms authentication wants to redirect. Is there a handler that I can hook into, or some other option to prevent the redirect?

I'm using Forms authentication in ASP.NET MVC website and I store user account login name in AuthCookie like this: FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(account.Login, false); I want to ask if there is a possibility that user on client side will somehow manage to change his login name in AuthCookie and thus he will be for example impersonated as someone with higher privileges and authorized to do more actions than he is normally supposed to have. Also is it better to save in this cookie user account login name or user account ID number?
