View 1 Repliesi have a web application with form identification agains ActiveDirectory. The user is added to the aspnetdb and then we add his roles and profile.heres my question. If you have a user with "abcdef" for his sAMAccountName and then this user quit the job and someone else came in and we give him the SAME sAMAccountName, how aspnet will react? i guest it will see that the sAMAccountName already exist in the aspnetdb and will use it? if its true, then i will have a problem that the new user will inherit the old user access and profile!how can i solve this? i know theres a objectGUID attribute in AD that i can use but how can i use it with aspnetdb?

View 1 RepliesI would like to know best resource/tutorial/video on Active Directory Integration with SQL Server Membership provider.
Using Active Directory internal users are authenticated and then same user name is created in
SQL Membership database to implement authorization.
users are stored against groups in Active directory, so it is not feasible or no granular approch to assign Roles to users in Active Directory. By authenticating users against Active Directory and using SQL Server Membership provider to implement Authorization for active directory users as well as it is quite feasible to implement authentication and authorization using SQL Server Membership provider.
Active Directory for internal users authentication ONLY. SQL Server Membership provider for internal users authorization and external users authentication plus authorization.
I am createing user dynamially with the below code; string MyPassword = Membership.GeneratePassword(8,0).ToString(); Membership.CreateUser(TextBox7.Text, MyPassword, TextBox8.Text); but before I start creating, I would like to check if the user name is used before or not.
View 2 RepliesI have a custom membership user class and custom MembershipProvider working against database. Due to security reasons the user passwords are stored in the database as hashed values. So my procedure
public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password) is
{
//select hashed password from db
return (EncodePassword(password) == dbpassword)
}

I have a web app that uses AD to authenticate the user which works great. But i received a request where a user that is outside of the Ad needs access to the application.
Is there a way to add this user manually (Maybe in web.config) to allow them to access the application?
I've written a small ASP.NET 3.5 application to allow users to update selected account attributes on their own. Everything works fine when I use Basic Authentication, but because the dialog that is presented is less than ideal, I'd like to use forms authentication to give the users more instruction on how to log in. My problem is that in order for the user to update their account information, I have to have the application impersonate them for the update actions. I've scoured the internet trying to find a solution to my issue, but nothing fits or works. I have tried setting the web.config:

I also tried using the LogonUser method to create a user token and backend the authentication that way, and it doesn't work either.

I think the title pretty much says what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to make several applications with C#, ASP.NET, and active directory. Right now, I'm trying to create a report for my manager that shows all the active directory attributes of the current user. Could someone show me the code for this. I would want to add a new row into a datagridview for each attribute.
View 1 RepliesIn the site I am building we have standard users and superusers. A superuser can delete another user from the system and this should result in that user being logged out (if he/she is currently logged in). We use the Membership provider. Or actually the superuser doesnīt delete the other user completely but instead sets his/her as inActive by following code:
[code]...
But, that should not matter... What I want to know is how to make the affected user being logged out. I donīt need a popup or anything to be shown to the other user that he/she is just logged out, it is enough to check if that user is logged in when he/she tries to move to another page on my site.
I'm trying to get the comments section for a user, to populate a text box which can be updated. I'm getting the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error. Why is this occurring?

Is there a membership function to search a username Like this: LIKE '%UserName%' ?
This is not working.

I would like to create a sync process between an ADSI table and aspnet Membership using Membership.CreateUser. However, I need to see if a user exists before importing. I can import as long as a user does not exist however I am having trouble checking if users exist and only importing if they do not. Here is my code so far.

When creating a foreign key to the membership user table, is it better to refer to the user_id column or is it ok to use the username column? I assume that the Membership spec enforces uniqueness in the username since there is a method Membership.GetUser(username) that returns one user. Using the id is a bit awkward in code because I have to end up casting all over the place like (int)user.ProviderUserKey. The username would give more information quickly when viewing raw data as well. Just wondering if someone knows a reason why I shouldn't use it as the foreign key.
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to call a membership provider to generate a username and password automatically?
View 1 Repliesif a user wants to clear their personal information from a page after clicking on a button that they be re-directed to the ASP Login page. This code needs to be developed using Java Script because I want the user to confirm with a confirmation box that they intended to clear their info. I have found resources on MS that pointed to referencing the "System Web Extension" within the Web Config file shown below, which enables Java Script to be able to reference the Authentication Service classes. I am also calling the function show_confirm in the button onclick event to process the message box response.
I also need to redirect a user back to the Login page within this same show_confirm() function without pointing directly to the URL, but instead to the folder where the page is locateded like in VB Server Redirect if possible.
The error message I receive when I run this code is: Microsoft JScript runtime error: 'sys' is undefined.

i have implemented asp. net membership authentication and one of my users has forgotten his password.
The passwords are hashed and when i try retrieveing his password i get the error that password retrieval is not available for hashed passwords.
Should i reset the password?
I realize that user names are unique, but is there another identifier associated with the username? If there is, how do I find out what it is for the user who is currently logged in?
