I am using membership on my site for registered users access. If they sign in but dont do anything more then after 20 minutes I want to automatically log them out. A message box should then be displayed advising them what happened.
View 1 RepliesI have an application where I display every Active Directory group that the current user belongs to. When I have my config setup like this:
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
<allow users="*"/>
</authorization>
It works fine. When it's like this:
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<authorization>
<!--<deny users="?"/>-->
<allow users="*"/>
</authorization>
No groups are found. Why does this make a difference? Does asp.net only authenticate if we are specifically denying access to unauthenticated users? If it helps this is how i'm getting the groups:
protected string GetUserGroups()
{
StringBuilder userGroups = new StringBuilder();
ArrayList groupMembers = new ArrayList();
DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://myldap/DC=nc,DC=local");
DirectorySearcher ds = new DirectorySearcher(root);
ds.Filter = String.Format("(&(samaccountname={0})(objectClass=person))", User.Identity.Name.Substring(User.Identity.Name.LastIndexOf(@"") + 1));
ds.PropertiesToLoad.Add("memberof");
try
{
foreach (SearchResult sr in ds.FindAll())
{
foreach (string str in sr.Properties["memberof"])
{
string str2 = str.Substring(str.IndexOf("=") + 1, str.IndexOf(",") - str.IndexOf("=") - 1);
groupMembers.Add(str2);
}
}
}
catch
{
//ignore if any properties found in AD
}
return String.Join("|", (string[])groupMembers.ToArray(typeof(string)));
}
I would like to control the menu display (show/hide menu items) in my ASP.NET 3.5 website based on the user's AD group and also control the functionality within a page using user's active directory group membership. how to do this? menu is stored in an xml file and bound to a control. all the examples I see on the web are related to forms authentication. this is an intranet website with integrated windows authentication and both authentication and authorization should be controlled using user's active directory groups.
View 1 RepliesI'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to AD... But what I want to achieve in the first instance is to use the AD to display the staff name and e-mail address from Active Directory, when they are logged onto the company Intranet. Using the 'login status' I can display domain/username, but would prefer the 'CN' and e-mail address to be shown instead.
I'm using C# and I've got as far as putting Using System.DirectoryServices in my references and .cs file
Staff are authenticated using "Windows" authentication rather than "forms" as they would already be logged onto a PC and should not require to log onto the Intranet again
PS Tried to search through the forums, but the examples shown seem to be to retrieve multiple users / info from AD and I hope my request is a 'simpler' fix
I need to display a javascript confirm box after the user successfully logs into the application. If the select 'yes' of the confirm box then I need to navigate them to a different page and if they select 'no' the default.aspx page should be displayed. I am using the login control.
I tried to use ClientScript. RegisterClientScriptBlock on Login1_Authenticate event, it didn't work. I tried the same thing on the Page_Load event of Default.aspx as well as Master Page load event, that also didnt work.

I am just getting started with MVC and I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction for help with forms authentication using active directory? I have the sample site up but the results I have found on google have not been very helpful in answering this question. This site is going to be an intranet page that we want users to be able to access without logging in when they access it from our network while they must login when trying to access it from home.
