Security :: How To Get Windows Username From A Class File In App_Code
Jul 1, 2010
this is relatively simple, but how would i go about retrieving the windows login name from the class file in the App_Code folder. I have set up my website to run windows authentication, and can use httpcontext to get windows login name from code beihind, but without passing this to the class everytime, is it possible to get the login name from within the class?
I've developed a class and it is put in a .cs file under the app_code folder. The class is a public one and there is no namespace specifically defined for this class in the file.of my webpages uses this class. It works ok on my local machine. However after I uploaded the page to the web server and then try to display the page through internet, the sever told me the class name can not be found.
While working on my FTP server, I am trying to access a class within my App_Code, but it is not working.When writing, the class is accessible/usable in the code like shown in picture. I get no build errors.But when I run it in the browser, I get an error stating that it cannot find my class.I've looked around some other posts on the forum, like using namespace, but it didn't work.
Since App_Code doenst exist as an ASP.NET Folder, I manually added App_Code as a regular folder, then within that I placed technologydescriptor.cs. Although it now has the appearance of an ASP.NET Folder.But for some reason my code doesnt recognize this class if its w/in the App_Code folder. This is picked up if it is not within that folder- why?Error: "The type or namespace name could not be found, are you missing a using directive or assembly reference"
I am relatively new to asp.net environment.Recently working on a project, i discovered a problemi.e. I had to add using system.io to all file functions in any page. same for using sql functionsi.e. any method for that namespace had to be used in full like By adding the following section in web.config , ALL my pages automatically have access to that namespace
Best way to describe my issue with vs 2010.create a new website. create the App_Code folder. create a new class in the folder. put the line "x" in the class declaration. hit compile. And the website will compile with no errors. It's not "seeing" this new class as being part of the project best I can tell.
My intranet web application uses Forms Authentication. How do i get the Active directory domain nameusername of the logged in user. The IIS directory security settings for the app are:
Anonymous User Access : Ticked Integrated Windows Authentication : Ticked
I tried using the following but to no avail
System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name ----> returns NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE Request.LogonUserIdentity.Name -----> returns The username used for anonymous access
ineed to pass this information to an external application for the current user to gain access to the system. Can i untick Anonymous user access in IIS and continue using forms authentication? what are the other options.
Im using forms authentication and im trying to get the current username. I tried using Environment.UserName but I am getting "ASPNET". But if i change my application to windows authentication im getting the true username that is currently logged on. How can I get the true username that is currently logged on in the domain using the forms authentication.
I'm using forms authentication in my application but i want to get the active directory domain anme and user name of the logon user. is that possible. The IIS Directory security settings are Anonymous Access allowed and Integrated windows authentication ticked. I tried the following but to no avail
Request.LogonUserIdentity.Name (this is returning the machine name and user name used for anonymous access) System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name -> returning NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE
Currently I am storing my username and password (passwordFormat="SHA1") credientails in my web.config. I would like to figure out how to access them in an xml file that I have stored in my App_Data directory rather than the web.config file because I do not want my application restarting everytime I manually add a user (small list of 5 authorized users for the CMS section).
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)?
If a static class is put in App_Code, does that imply only one instance will be created, shared by different http requests?Or each request still brings one request?
I have a logging class that, well, logs things. I would like to add the ability to automatically have the current page be logged with the messages. Is there a way to get the information I'm looking for?
I am using VS2010 and am creating an ASP.Net application.I have declared a class called "Calculator" in a class file called "Calculator.cs" in the App_Code folder.I have a form called "CalcDemo.aspx" with a code behind file. I try and use the "Calculator" class but intellisense can't see it. I thought App_Code is the common code repository for any classes I define and should be visible to all ASPX code behind files The namespaces are the same like Webapp1.xxxx
I'm trying to set up a smart way to handle email in my ASP.NET Web Application Project. I created a class in my App_Code folder named "MailHelper.cs" but am having trouble invoking it in the code-behind pages. Can someone please correct me on the correct way to do this?Here's the Mail.Helper.cs file in App_Code:
[Code]....
How do I invoke this when I'm ready to fire off a message? Let's say I have a Submit_Click event and want an email to be generated:
I have a PlannerShiftView user control in the root folder of my ASP.NET web site. In my App_Code folder, I have a ShiftViewTemplate class that needs to instantiate a PlannerShiftView (for a TemplateField in a GridView). The problem is, the following code doesn't compile because the PlannerShiftView type is not available in what I deem to be the App_Code 'phantom namespace'.
Please can somebody explain to be what is happening here, as well as what to do. I know I can just move the ShiftViewTemplate out of App_Code, going against convention and without explantion, but that is something of a hollow victory.
I guess I might be missing something easy (or not) here. I have a class in App_Code which do some validations over Session and Request.Url, till here it's working fine. But then I need to get the actual page title. I know it's simple to get it in the page's code behind, but could I get it in a separate class like it is on my scenario?
I have a single project. and I have two folder in it. In the 1st folder I have a class named Class1 and in the 2nd folder I have a class named Class2. Can anyone tell me how I can access members of Class1 in Class2. I have tried by adding namespace in Class1 and Using that namespace in Class2. But it is giving error. It is easy to access classes or their members from App_Code folder. I don't want to put my classes in app_code folder.
I have some problem in app_code. I created one class name as class1 in side app_code.... Now I have a grid view with lots of textboxes inside it(itemtemplete). I call class1 to fill the all the values in my database with get set properties..... it working awesome on local. but problem is that after published it is not working.... I mean class1 is not called after publishing.... And app_code folder also not appearing at published folder.
