Security :: Add A Connection String By Using A Window Authentication With The Username And Password?
Jan 3, 2011
In the web.config, how do add a connection string by using a window authentication with the username and password? I have tried like this and it keeps ignoring the username and password
I'm writing an ASP.Net MVC intranet application which is accessed via handhelds and a range of browsers. My users all have AD accounts and have different permission to our SQL database views/procs depending on who they area. The database also uses CURRENT_USER for horizontal partitioning.
Because of the range of devices that need to access the application I can't rely on impersonation/delegation or the trusted subsystem. I want the user to simply input username and password (same as AD) when the above mechanisms fail.
Does anyone know how I can use AD username and password in a connection string to access the database without creating a set of SQL mirror accounts? I can't login with network service or a sql proxy account because the database needs to be user aware.
We have a link in our site that pin points to sharepoint documents and we are retreiving some documents files (*.doc). Our sharepoint uses IWA (integrated windows authentication) which is prompted if we're trying to access that documents, unfortunately we don't want to prompt that window to authenticate the user. We need is to create a username and password and authenticate it. how can we do that.
Note* we have 2 server one for our application and the other one is for sharepoint.
I am connecting to Oracle database from .net using OLEDB.
My Connection string :
[Code]....
I am using above ConnectionString to communicate with database. To make it work, I have to store password (don't want to do that) in session and use it every time I need to talk to db.
1) Is there any other connection string without username and password with oledb?
2) I use "Integrated Security" for MSSQL. How can I use the same with OLEDB - Oracle database?

One our customer complaint about HYH virus storing form authentication user credentials in clear text in his local system. Customer is accessing website through internet explorer. Is any preventing measure we can take in website or Code level?More details on Website1) Hosted in IIS 6.02) Windows Server 2003 Operating System ) Written in ASP & ASP.net combination
I have been trying to avoid the windows login userid and password window when I use the Windows Authentication mode for a web site. I need to capture the the windows logon user name without prompting for the user id and password and display that on the web site. I had tried almost everything... changed authentication,security setups on IE and IIS etc... still not being able to avoid the window...
I have a service (WCF) with which my ASP.NET page will communicate. The WCF service has hashed passwords in its data store (a file actually). The WCF service requires the username and the hashed password on every call. Nowm the problem I'm encountering is that if I authenticate the user with forms authentication in ASP.NET, a cookie will be saved in the user's computer after the user is authenticated but I would like to save the username and hashed password too so that the user may able to use the WCF service. Where should this information should be saved so that it is safe and secure? Should I use session variables? If I choose that option that, then should I switch from forms-based authentication and manually authenticate using session variables or use both forms-based autentication for web page access and store the username and hashed password in a session variable? What are the pros and cons of each?
I have the asp.net with authentication set to forms. After deploying new version on server it started to display a UsernName Password dialog box (like in windows authentication) on the login.aspx page.
When user click "cancel" the login.aspx page displays normally and user could log in and continue his work normally.
I don`t know how to get rid of that dialog box? Anonymous login on IIS is enabled, and the anonymous IIS user has access to that file - login.aspx
I have an ASP.NET setup website using Windows authentication. Each time I open IE and try to access the webpage I get a windows authentication screen. Once I have logged in I can see the website fine. My problem is that every time I open a new IE browser I have to re-enter my username and password. I have heard about thew double hop issue, is this what it could be. If so how many ip fix this. Any ideas how i can stop this box showing up each time? I have ticked the "remember my username/password" tick box but still no joy. I am using Windows Server 2003, IIS 6.0 and .NET 4.0.
I am using ASP.NET Forms Authentication for my application. I have made my Password Format "Clear", so no problems with the password encryption. I need to create a view(in SQL server) to display all Administrators in my System. ie aspnet_Roles.LoweredRoleName='administrator' The fields needed are UserName and Password
I've recently enabled Digest Authentication on an intranet website/application I am creating for my company in ASP.NET.
The reason I have done so is because Windows Authentication seemed to only work for some users, and not for others. I could not figure out why nor do I know enough about IIS to try and trace the issue. After some trial and error, I found that digest authentication seemed to give me the behaviour that I wanted. That is: allow only users with a valid account on the domain to log in to the website with their credentials.
The problem now, is that Firefox (3+) seems to ask for the user to authenticate on every HTTP request sent to the server. This does not appear to occur in Internet Explorer (6+) or Chrome.
I've tried searching for solutions but I always arrive at dead-ends. I'll find a discussion about the issue, and every posted solution leads to a dead link...or it's on Experts Exchange and I don't have access to view to solution.
The issue appears to be related (from what I've read) to the way the different browsers send their authentication headers vs how IIS interprets them. I'm not sure what I can do to change this though? One of the solutions I had found mentioned writing an ISAPI filter to fix this, but of course the link to the finished filter was broken and I have no idea how to go about making one myself.
I've tried messing with the NTLM and other auth related strings in about:config to try and force Firefox to trust my server but that doesn't seem to work either.
From a few other sources I've read, it appears that everything should work if I switch back to Windows Authentication, but then I'm back at square one where the authentication would work only for some users and not others.
A solution for either problem would work for me, but I have very little information for the Windows Authentication issue. If someone could guide me through tracing the problem I'd gladly post more information for it as well.
I have created a test user/password on my web site. The intent is to have prospective clients login and try out the tool. Instead of telling them the userid/password of the test user, I'd like to tweak the Login wizard.
In the Load event, I was able to specify login1.UserName = "test user"
But when I try to specify the password, I'm told it is a readonly field. How can I 'force' a specific password? Or, how can I call the login event directly and pass the needed values?
I have a web farm web project, and want to make sure windows authentication is working well without any problem in web farm, can any one give me some web sites or information about that?
For testing I used this:[URL]Encrypts only the password is not encrypted and username.Why not?For security reasons, I would like also to encrypts username.
I have an intranet run with IIS, with basic authentication config. See more in this screenshot:

Of course, then, when user login, this screen will appear:
[URL]
After successfully login, is there any method to get UserName (very easy to get) and also Password (don't know yet) from asp.net coding (run at server)
I am trying to implement a small site which requires users to login using Forms based authentication. I have followed the tutorials found on various sites on the net and in particular the one at [URL] This enabled me to get a sample environment in place but it seems as though I am having a problem authenticating a user for which I know the username and password are correct.
I have a ASP.Net 3.5 site with my login.aspx form in a folder named login, my default.aspx in the root of the site and my protected content in a folder called main.
I am authenticating against a SQL Server Express database, so I have ran the aspnet_regsql.exe command to populate my database.
I have added the following authentication/authorization lines to my web.config
I believe that my connection string and my database are ok because if i use the ASP.NET Configuration from within Visual Studio I can create and manage my users and I can also see them in the tables in the SQL Server. Also if I do enter any incorect credentials in my login page the page tells me that the password is incorrect.
I got a username and password field which made by myself and a User database which is all manually made
So now I wish to know how to authenticate user using the username and password data enter by the user and match with the database data to verify user is a member and login?
For what i know, the code should be something like this
SELECT UserName, Password FROM dbo.User WHERE UserName - @UserName
@UserName = ?
How do i assign the value from my username text field to @UserName?
I am trying to login usng form authentication from my web.config but it does not work. In the web.config i have the following: (i am going to make the password secure but just need to work with the basics
so I will admit this is a pretty stupid question. To my defense, I have never done it before. So take pity. I followed Joe Stagner's video on using the built-in authentication. Now, I would like to query a database using VB.net codebehind to verify if the user exists. I am clueless. Yes, I have a connection string already.
I had created an application which authenticate the user from the Active Directory,I had published the code on the server but when the page executes it ask for the username/password.i don't want this to happen, how to suppress this username/password screen.
I am writing a simple plugin for IE. I need to store a password and username setting for the user who uses the plugin. I know that I can store the username/password in the registry, I can manually encrypt it using the encription classes with .NET, or I can store it in a config file and encrypt the config file. I was wondering if there is a specific pattern/mechanism that I should use to store password and username.
