Security :: Listing Logged In Users - VB.NET Membership?
Jul 2, 2010
I used [URL] as a guide and have something configured to show me the users which are logged into the system. This uses the aspnet_Users.LastActivityDate column to see when someone last did something on the system. It also uses the userIsOnlineTimeWindow within the web.config to determine whether a user is online or not.
But because of this userIsOnlineTimeWindow limitation of .NET, even when someone logs out of the system or closes their browser window, the system still sees them as being online. Also, if they are on a page and don't do anything for 10 minutes, the system will show them offline until they refresh their page or go to another page. know of a better, more real-time way to tracking users which are logged in, logged out, etc?
I don't want to wait 10 minutes for the system to show that a user is offline and also if there's 10 minutes of inactivity, it shows them being offline.

I have below code to display "list of all the online users" inside listBox using Membership function.
Code:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
if (!IsPostBack) {
MembershipUserCollection allUser = Membership.GetAllUsers(); // to get all the users
List<MembershipUser> onlineUsers = new List<MembershipUser>(); //creating list of online users
foreach (MembershipUser user in allUser)
[Code] ....
I want to remove that user from the list of online users, who himself has logged in. Example: if I had logged-in with UserName: Admin, then this Admin should not show to me in the list of "online users"
Tried below Code but not working:
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
if (!IsPostBack) {
MembershipUserCollection allUser = Membership.GetAllUsers(); // to get all the users
List<MembershipUser> onlineUsers = new List<MembershipUser>(); //creating list of online users
MembershipUser m_user = Membership.GetUser(); //to get self logged-in user
[Code] ....

i used security in login page which restricts all users who have not logged in to all pages. I need to restrict specific users to specific pages. I'm not using AspSqlService provider. So i cannot create roles and restrict automatically. And the pictures i use in login page are not visible @ runtime.

I know how to identify the current user during a specific browsing session and can thus control the data, etc, made visible to that individual user. I also know how to find out how many users logged in within the recent past, using:
Membership.GetNumberOfUsersOnline()
.... which I believe calculates the number of users who have logged in within the past 15 minutes. However, I would like to know if there is any way to identify all the users who are logged in at a point in time. Is this possible?

I am using ASP.Net Forms based security with the login control. On my site a user will make a number of selections that will be written to a database. Is their a unique user id that I can get from the AspNetSqlProvider that I can use to id users in my database? When a user logs back in after being away I want to be able to retireve the users information using this id.

I have a site where the admin can log in to make changes to his content, but while making changes (using a specific asp.net control) with no page loads or callbacks while editing, the user is sometimes being logged out.
I want to increase the time it takes for the system to wait before logging-out inactive users.
I'm using the standard membership provider.

I have a web application with a login form. A user enters a user name and password. If they exist in the database the user is authenticated using these two lines:
[Code]....
The problem is that when a user logs in at first he is logged in as himself. When navigating on the web application for a while the user assumes the identity of another logged in user. This happens all the time. In my web.config the authentication mode looks like this:
[Code]....
The site does not use ASP.NET session variables. Instead each page initializes a Singleton class, which stores itself in a static class variable, always accessing the users data already read from the database. The Singleton implementation is:
[Code]....
Could the problem with assuming another logged in users "session" be related to static classes in my application or a Forms Authentication configuration or a configuration in IIS (e.g. is it possible for users to have their own process?).

I have designed a navigation structure that is customisable from within my application and linked to the users role.
So I can restrict what menu items a user gets based on their role.
I have managed to do this quite well using SQL Tables and an ASP.Net Menu.
I can get it to only show the menuitems that are marked active and I have created an Stored procedure to get the menu items for a particular role.
Where I am struggling is getting the Logged On Users Roleid to pass it to the Stored Procedure.
I can get it using a regular aspx page but my menu is on my masterpage and I do not want to have to code it in each and every page.
I even tried to do it with a user-control but same happens. It seems that the User class is just not available when in a masterpage.
how I can pass the roleid from a Class or something or from the page to the masterpage?

If I log in different membership provider, and go to page that contains following code, I get NullReferenceException error. User will be authenticated even if I loggin to different membership.
Is there any ways to prevent from getting error??
If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated Then
Dim UserIdentity As MembershipUser = Membership.Providers("CustMembershipProvider").GetUser(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name, False)
Dim currentUserID As String = UserIdentity.ProviderUserKey.ToString()

In the web.config file i have put some code in so that when users log in they will be re-directed to another part of the website which only registered users can access. for the admin part only the admin can log in and it takes him to the admin section and that works fine. it is only this that is causing me problems.
the code i inserted for which the user needs to be diverted to is:
<location path ="UserLoggedInFindUs.aspx">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users ="?"/>

I am having an issue, with the membership and form authentication. I am having a problem where when an logged in user types a url they can see the content of pages they're not suppose to. When the user tries to click on the screen or any ajax fires they are redirected to the main page. What is going on? I have all the items setup in the webconfig properly just wondering what is happening. Also I don't want to use a redirect solution for each page since that is what I thought webconfig was setup for.

I have a database of users that we used to have on a different system. The users already have their username and passwords associated with.
Now we are switching the entire system to .Net , and we will be using the membership to authenticate the users and start creating the new users with the wizard.
My question is : how could we import the users from a different database (mysql) , to the membership database on MS SQL ?
And also the passwords on the mysql database are in clear text , when we import them to the membership database on ms sql , is it going to apply the hash on them ?

I currently built a custom form using VS 2005 to accommodate administrators when deleting users from the membership "aspnetdb" database.
I set the method for the objectDataSource to use "DeleteUser(String username, Boolean delete All Related Data), returns Boolean".
When I run the application and click the delete link from my gridview I receive the following error message:
"Value cannot be null. Parameter name: username"
How do I get the value for username?

I have been diligently learning all about the asp.net membership framework and have a test site running it all. However, during my testing, it became apparent that deleting users would be useful. I can delete users from the "aspnet_users" & "aspnet_Membership" tables simply by right-clicking on the table in server explorer, selecting "show table data", highlight the rows and press delete!!
However, this is a pain and I would much rather do this properly from code behind.
I have found out that the membership schema supplies a large number of "stored procedures" including "Delete_Users" however, when I execute this one manually, I have no idea what the last two parameters are (number of tables and something else from memory - the first two "application name" and "username" are easy to copy in to the dialog.
show me a sample set of VB code that I can use behind a "Delete User" button on my webform including how I supply the parameters. I have set up a drop down list box from teh "aspnet_users" table which displays the "UserName" and has as the SelectedValue "UserId".

I'm trying to do a bulk insert of data into the aspnet_Membership table. I have existing records from a previous version of the system I am re-building in asp.net. I've been researching and asking questions, but I am still missing something. What is the best way to do this? I believe I need to grab my previous table and iterate over each record and insert into the new membership table via the Membership.CreateUser method. So far I have been unable to make it work. My code so far in the on click event of a button is below.
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Data;
using System.Data.SqlClient; [code]....

I have set up Membership and Roles and can create users and login using the ASp Login control. However I need to associate users with customers (in a Customers table in the database) and display content according to the customer that the user belongs to. Is the best way of doing this to create a foreign key field in the aspnet_Users table relating back to Customers table which would have to be updated manually after creating the user or is there a better way?
