Security :: Add Form Authentication On Nested Folder?
Feb 7, 2011
I have simple structure:
root
root/Admin
I would like to add form authentication only on Admin folder.
when I add this into Admin/web.config
[Code]....
I'm getting this error:
It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
I have an "Admin" folder in my application that will include pages that I would not like to have anonymous access to. When a user attempts to load a page that resides in this folder, I would like to redirect them to a login page. Here is what I have in my config so far.
How is configure my both web configs to solve my issue. currently i am getting following error
It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
my root web config has default settings and my Admin directory has following settings
i have a problem with forms authentication. i have a website and want to restrict access to an especific folder. i want the access to this folder be made via the login form this is what i have in the web.config
I have a folder that cannot be accessed by anyone except the management role of my web site. But, I added a folder to this and it can be accessed by anyone.
Of course, I can explcitly set the access to only a specific role(s) but I would like to know if I can tell set it so that even folders nested inside a restricted folder can take on the same permissions settings as the folder in which it is nested.
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?
I needed information regarding the capabilities & integration of AzMan tool with Asp.net.Currently, I got a Sharepoint 2007 website along with ASP.NET 2008 where I am using Form Based Authenication.Now, the requirement is any user within a domain registered in AD should be able to login in website through intranet.
Can I acheive this using AzMan, or I need to create two websites one with FBA for internet users and the other one for the intranet users with AD authenication. Also my intenet website is deployed and in use where usermapping and roles are already created, so using this tool what will be the impact on existing webiste.
I'm trying to get a website that has anonymous authentication for most of the site, but windows authentication for a sub folder.I've turned off anonymous access in IISEnables basic or Integrated authentication (tried both)Used this in web config to give all users access to main site
I am trying to implement forms authentication in my application. It has a folder named User and an .aspx Page named Welcome.aspx. I am trying to restrict Access to this page by directly typing address in the browser. For this I have done following setting in web.config:
It works fine for the first time and redirects to Login page when I type the URL directly in browser. But when I press back button in browser and again try to redirect, this time it redirects to Welcome.aspx. How can I avoid such a situation (Don;t want to disable back button). Also If i try to Set Location Path="User", it gices error i.e. I am not able to set folder level security
I have a web app, which contains a folder Uploads, to which users (authenticated) upload their files (for some reason it has to be a folder in the root of the web app).I want to deny access to this folder and files to all non-authenticated users.
In my web.config I have:
[Code]....
and everything seems to work in development, but on a staging server it redirects non-authenticated users to login page ONLY from aspx pages, but not when entering the url to the file in Uploads folder.
I have a problem in my asp application. In my application I have an own authentication mechanism so in the web.config file I have <authentication mode="None"/>
Inside the application users can upload files to the folder I've created (App_Files). I would like to give access to the folder only once they are logged in (Session["Login"] is no null).
I dont want not logged in users to be able to access the files over a url address in the browser (like http://<server>/App_Files/Filename.pdf)
I want to create a web service that can authenticate user from my application. I will be sending user name and password from my app to the web service and that will deny or accept the user. I want to use form authentication using sql server. that this web service can be used by other team in my office so that they can just call the web service and the user will be authenticated.
Also, is it possible to use both form and windows authentication in my web service and authenticate the user both ways.
I have developed an Interanet web application using the windows Active directory authentication if user find then it automaticaly authenticated working correctly now my user wants the capability of being able to login to the intranet site as another user by providing the username and Password . For example, Team lead needs to login on other team memeber System to pefrom some task on his behalf if he or she is not aviable in office .
I have created a standard MS Login Page. However when I try to login on the page only by providing the Username system authenitcate the user ( not validating the password of that user)
I'm using Form Authentication in my web application.In my application I have a lot of pop up windows that include form inside.when the form ticket expires the user is redireced to Login page.Also it happens inside a popup window. If user leaves the pop up open and come back after the ticket is expired, it redirects him to the Login inside that pop up.
Asp.net can be use window authentication. In my web site i want to control with window authentication and form. Is it possible to do?
If it possible to do how can be make it? Another one is, if i use window authentication, how can be identify group. For example. Sales group cannot be see purchase or etc. Window log in can be give group. So how can i define this part?
Then I add a Login control in Authenticate.aspx, after click Login button there is an error like this:
An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 1802 and the SqlException message is: CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.Is there anyone know what the problem that Form authentication cannot directly apply to Dynamic Data site as usual?
I'm doing form authentication with roles to access areas of a website. The authentication is working great, but I'm having trouble with the roles piece. On the page in question (needing to narrow the access), the top lblGrps.text (below) shows I'm in the group I need to be in, while the response.write (also immediately below) reads false for the EdIT group:
I am developing a website in which I am using ASP.NET Form Authentication and everything is working fine as I am expecting. I can authenticate user from login form, I can read user roles from database and can add authenticate ticket in which user roles are stored as user data etc. etc.
Now I want to give user a page where user can update his roles in the database by selecting any role he/she want from the list of checkboxes. I know how to update the user roles in database but I want to know how to update user roles in the authentication cookie after database update.
Let's say in the start user is in "Seller" and "Buyer" role and later he want to become member of "Agent" role as well and he update his roles from the given page and everything is updated in database. Now according to database user is member of three roles but User.IsInRole("Agent") method is returning me false because the new role "Agent" is not updating in the authentication cookie.
How can I update a newly added role in authentication cookie when user is still logged in.
