Security :: Forms Authentication Users Expire Randomly?
Mar 11, 2010
I set up forms authentication in my asp.net application, and everything works apparently without problems. However from time to time some of the users trying to log in inform me that suddenly they cannot enter anymore as their user seems to be deactivated. Even if they try the forgot password entry, they get "user not found" response, but if I check the user is still there, and according to asp.net configuration it is even active.The only solution I found until now to reactivate the user is to remove it and create it again, and then it works. But it cannot work like this of course.

I am trying to create an Intranet application and I want my users to be able to log in with their windows account. However my organisation has over 150000 employees but I only want the 10-12 people in my department to be able to log in.
How do I do this? Do I need to store the 10-12 users in a database?

I have a small website with about 10 members. 5 of those are now banned.
I have ensured that they cannot login through the login page.
However because the authentication cookie is persistent and is set to expire after a few months if they return to the site they will still be logged in.
A simple solution is just to expire all authentication tickets/cookies.

I have the following implementation and I'm sure there is an easy way to do what I want to do but I can't figure it out.
1. I use forms based authentication to authenticate to my site
2. I use active directory to authenticate the users
3. I use the Allow Users="xxx" tag to authorize the users limited to the list that can access my site. (e.g.. even though Mary is an AD user she can't access my site unless I put her credentials in the allow users tag in the web.config file)
All is working well but I want to move the users access list (e.g.. <allow users="john" />" from the web.config to a database table so that I can create a user maintenance page for my admins to add and delete user access. For the life of me I can't figure out how to do this and I can't seem to find an article on it either.

I am using windows authentication in my web application. All we need is when the application will be executed it will launch login.aspx page. If users put correct userid and password(checked from active server directory) it will be redirected to a difference page. But if any unauthenticated user tries to access any other page in the application by typing the Url on the address bar it will be again redirected to the login page. We have to do this by changing our web.config file.I can achieve this using form authentication but not windows. But our requirement is windows. The requirement is very basic but all effort is just not working.

I have an intranet site that i set up to windows authentication. It works fine most of the time but some departments wont be able to access the site and will be asked to enter user name and password.I checked their Active Directory account and the only difference i could see was that the organizational unit parameter was different than the rest of the users.

Since we updated our website to .NET 4.0, users using a proxy-server can't login in our webapplication anymore.In the event-viewer on the server this error is thrown:Forms authentication failed for the request. Reason: The ticket supplied was invalid.This problem only exists for users with a proxy, all other users can login normally.We are not using a web garden or multiserver (load balance) environment, just a webserver and a databaseserver.

i am having login.aspx as start up page (In Admin Panel) . In login Page i am giving a value to session and i am checking that value in all pages page_load event, if expires it will redirect to login page. Consider if that session doesn't expire, at that time if i try to enter into page inside Admin Panel directly from website for first time, it should redirect to login.aspx but it will take me to that particular page (Since Session doesn't expire).

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.

On our production servers, the admins created a WebUser active directory account which is users for anonymous access to IIS and is also used to authenticate database access with our SQL Server instances using Integrated Security=SSPI in the connection string and identity impersonate="true" in the web.config.
I've often come across situations where I would like to or even need to use forms authentication. However, I using forms authentication, Integrated Security seems to use the logged in user's credentials to authenticate against the database. In these cases I have changed the connection string to use the credentials of a SQL Server users instead. I would prefer to not have a hard coded username and password in the connection string or rather worse in code. Is it possible to use forms authentication just for user authentication for users and windows authentication with the IIS user for database access? What would be the best practice in such a situation?

I have an ASP.NET web application that is using forms authentication. Everything is configured and working correctly. However, i'm dealing with the issue of creating and maintaining users and role membership.
I know that I can roll my own solution but I'm wondering if there is an alternative solution?
Does iis7 provide screens for managing forms authentication users? Is there a reliable, free solution that someone would recommend?

How do I migrate users from a existing users table to Forms Authentication?
There seems to be three options:
T-SQL - Iterate through the existing users table and insert into Forms Authentication tables using the stored procedure aspnet_Membership_CreateUser Code - create a utility that will iterate through the existing users table and insert into Forms Authentication tables using Membership.CreateUser() Code - as users login verify credentials against existing users table and insert into Forms Authentication tables using Membership.CreateUser()
Which is the most practical?
I have been currently trying option 1 but I am running into difficulties using the password salt to create the encrypted password from a plain text password
