Security :: How To Specify The Authentication Database At Runtime
Mar 28, 2011
when using Forms Authentication to validate against a SQL database, all the Forms Authentication samples utilizes the connection string from the web.config file. Is there a way of specifying the connection string for Forms Authentication to use, programatically at runtime?
Without going into great details, my web app will be utilizing different databases depending upon other factors. So, sometimes, the app will be utilizing Database1, and other times, Database2. Both databases will have the same Forms Authentication tables, just different values.I'm hoping there is a simple way of just specifying the database connection string to utilize, without having to go so far as to start implementing my own custom providers. Yet, I haven't come across any documentation that talks about how to do that (yet).

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 am using Forms Based Authentication. I have extended the Forms Authentication Tables creating a custom table called Profile_Contact that holds the user's GUID, username, email address, and other information. I have another table called Profile_Account which holds company account information such as Company Name, address info, phone numbers etc. This table has a Key Field called IDProfileAccount. I include the IDProfileAccount field in the ProfileContact user table so I can associate the user with a specific Company. For the login page, I am using a basic login page created with using the Visual Studio login controls. When the user logs in, they are sent to the appropriate page as identified by the role the user has been given. This all works great.
Now I need to extend the login page so that when the user logs in not only is the user's name and GUID placed in session, I would also like to have the IDProfileAccount record placed in session as well so that I can filter the records the user sees as only those records of the Company the user is associated with. I know how to add static variable to a session and how to retrieve them to filter data, what I need to know is how to retrieve the data from the SQL table on login and sending it to the session. I would think it would be something along these lines:

User gets authenticated but the problem is that ASP.NET does not recognise the user as authenticated until the page is refreshed.

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.

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'm using the mvc authorize attribute on my controllers. Using forms authentication, I'd like to be able to redirect unauthenticated users to a different loginUrl based on the route or target url. I'm guessing that creating my own authorize atribute isn't the right thing to do because it shouldn't know about the authentication module you are using (Windows/Forms etc). What would be a good way to acheive this?

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.

The webapp I am trying to deploy will have the IIS running on the same server as database.I have been assigned a domain account and have been asked to connect to the database using this account.I am not sure how to go about making the connection. I cannot enable impersonation as I need to mention the username and password and it will be security concern, also I need to give write permission onC:WINNTMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Temporary ASP.NET Files (which is not allowed)The Webserver and SQL server runs with system account.Can you please let me know how to establish connectivity to the server using the domain account without mentioning the password anywhere.

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)?
