Security :: Saving Files On A Remote Server / Specifying Credential?
Apr 30, 2010
My web application is on a Webserver that is in a DMZ .
the web application must save on the server in LAN some files, but the webserver cannot access the file server because has no right to access. i wouldn't create an account for the web server, but i would that any time the application has to upload a file onto the file server make a connection that encapsulate credentials, then the upload starts ,finally the connection closes.
Is possible with some Objects to do this type of work?

I have developed an asp.net web service and deployed it Win 2003 server on IIS 6. I tried to access it from my asp.net application which is in developer pc, i'm getting a dialog-box "Discovery Credential for Proxy Server"... which asks for a user and password.
Even when I provided right credentials it is not accepting. May be this is because of firewall. How can I get rid of this.

Short: Why do I get a security violation saving files from within an XMLRPC.NET method and not under MVC?
Long:
I have a blog engine running on MVC 3 on a Godaddy shared hosting account (IIS7/.NET 4). I've implemented a MetaWeblog interface to it so that I can use Windows Live Writer 2011 to post. Everything is generally working. My problem seems to be with Medium Trust and the XMLRPC gateway that MetaWeblog uses. I get a FileIOPermission error when attempting to write media objects to disk. The key error is:
Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
I'm sure it's the Medium Trust level that's causing this error because when I set my local IIS7 to medium trust level I get the same issue. Upgrading to high or greater trust level solves the problem. However, I can not change the trust level on a Godaddy shared hosting account (I don't want to pay for a dedicated server for a personal project so upgrading is not financially feasible).
Here's the "funny" thing. In the same application I have a file upload page that works perfectly on dev and production. I'm going to the same sub-directory in both places (well under the application directory root and with write permissions granted). Therefore, it seems the only difference here is the fact that one part of the code executes under MVC and another as part of XMLRPC (not sure what framework that is part of as I'm kind of new to ASP.NET development).

I have heard that saving connection strings and stored procedure names in web.config file of our application is not safe. It is a good practice to store the connection string in a config file rather than as a hard coded string in our code and if we need to change it,then it makes our job easier. how to protect our code in web.config?

I am trying to save some resized images to the server. Why I get the following error on the vSmlImgFle.Save(vTmpDir.ToString & vFile.Name, ImageFormat.Jpeg) (in red below) line?
A generic error occurred in GDI+.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Runtime.InteropServices.ExternalException: A generic error occurred in GDI+.
And while we are on the subject of dealing with image files, is there a way to get the file format from the original file, rather than looking at the file extension to determine the file type:
If Ext = "JPG" then
Type = ImageFormat.Jpeg
Else if Ext = "JPG" then
Etc.
I thought that vImgFormat = vOrgImgFle.RawFormat might do it but that seems to return something completely different than ImageFormat.Jpeg.
Code:
Protected Function CopyScaleImages(ByVal FileSet As FileInfo())
Dim vTmpDir As New DirectoryInfo(Server.MapPath("~/SanInspPhotosTemp/"))
Dim vDir As New DirectoryInfo(Server.MapPath("~/SanInspPhotos/"))
Dim imgHght As Integer
[Code] .....

I've got a project that's going to go on a dedicated server environment. I'll be uploading images to the server, but saving them outside of the virtual folder path of the actual website, like so:
protected void UploadImage_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string newFile = "C:\Images\myImage.jpg";
this.cb_fuMainImage.PostedFile.SaveAs(newFile); // from webform <input id="cb_fuMainImage" type="file" runat="server" />
}
Now, this works fine on my home computer. Is there anything I'll need to do with IIS or ASP.NET (possibly in web.config) for this to work properly on a production machine? Settings or permissions that may need changing?...
It will be on Window 2003 with IIS6 and ASP.NET 3.5 SP1.

I'm trying to use an asp:FileUpload Control to allow users to upload files (.doc, .gif, .xls, .jpg) to a server that is outside of our DMZ and not the Web Server. We want to have the ability to look at these files for viruses, structure, etc prior to saving them into another directory that would allow access to outside users. From what I have read about this control is that it will allow for files to be uploaded to the web server. Can this control be used to upload files to a server other than the web server? If it can be done where should I look for this type of functionality or how do I force it to go to https:servernamefolder name (Where server name is not the web server)? Would I have to read the file then write it to the other server?

I'm using a custom ashx handler to handle a file upload. When run locally, the file uploads fine.When I use the same setup on the web server I get a "Index out of range" error.In firebug I see the binary contents of the file in the post data and the file name is also passed in the query string.Any one seen this before?I`m sure its something minor, but its driving me up the wall.

I'd like to allow users to upload a .pdf file via the file upload control (if that's the best method), save the file to the db and then retrieve it so they can click on a link and open the .pdf they've uploaded. I've been looking for a tutorial on how to do this but keep running into methods of saving the file directly on the server in a directory, not in SQL server (using Linq and VB by the way)

At one point this was working, but somewhere something happened. What I am trying to do is simply download a page from our local site. I keep getting the 401 unauthorized.
I have tried NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain")
and
CredentialCache cc = new CredentialCache();
cc.Add(new Uri("http://site/"), "Windows", new System.Net.NetworkCredential("user", "password", "domain"));
but that didnt work . We are using Windows authentication with no anonymous access.
Here is what was once working:
WebClient wc = new WebClient();
string FileName = Server.MapPath(\App_Data\rpt.htm);
wc.Credentials = CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;
wc.DownloadFile("http://site/Report.aspx?OrderNum=7534&Type=inv&BE=1", FileName);

filetoread = Server.MapPath("\servernamesharefile.csv")
filestream = File.OpenText(filetoread)
readcontents = filestream.ReadToEnd()
It works fine if I put the file in the local directory and use "filetoread = Server.MapPath("file.csv")", but won't do it over the UNC path.I'm guessing the problem is security related but can't find any info related to it, do I need to somehow specify a username/password somewhere ?

Can I get who the remote user is on IIS Server that is not part of the domain without challenging/prompting the user? I am thinking not, but wanted to see if anyone had a different answer. I added the server to my intranet zone but that didn't cause IE to send any user information. Or maybe it did but since the IIS server is not part of that domain it can't do anything with the user information. I am looking at the ServerVariables in the Request object.

Im passing sensitive details from my asp.net web app to a database on a different server. I've set up encryption on my database. Should I encrypt the data in the code behind file of the web app and then pass it to my database stored procedure or pass it to the stored procedure as it is and encrypt it there?

i have a production server that does not have ftp access. Possible way to deploy files is connecting with remote desktop client and send files.
As you know this approach is highly hard and time inefficient.

this is a bit of a strange one. have my front page of my intranet site and I am trying to pull an RSS feed from a subdirectory forum.
Root
Default.aspx
--->Forum
--->Rssfeed.aspx
On my default.aspx I can pull RSS Feeds from the BBC or any other external website so my code is working fine but when I try and pull a RSS feed from my local server I get "The remote server returned an error: (401) Unaithorized".Now, if I go to the Forum directory within IIS and change the directory secutiry from "Integrated Windows Authentication" to "Enable anonymous access" the RSS comes through to the front page without any errors, however, the forum requires "Integrated Windows Authentication" to be enable to that my users can post on the forum. If I turn both on then Windows authentication is still ignored for my users when they visit the forum.I have hardcoded my credentials in to the Default.aspx.cs to see if that helps but I still get Unauthorized message.My code is here:
[Code]....
As you can see I have tried a couple of different ways to get the credentials to work, it just seems to ignore my credentials and I have full admin access to the server and when I visit the forum it picks up my username.
