i am trying to show a list of users of my application "school", when admin logs in then he can view all the users in list but when school principals logins, he should get only users of his school, So i thought to get the current loggedIn userId first and then by that userId i'll get schoolId since userId is foreign key in school table...once i'll get the schoolId i can show the members of that school.
But my problem is how to get the UserID of currently loggedIn. I'm using MVC 1.0 Asp.Net -- "Membership" if my logic above is wrong then tell me the alternate good idea, so that principal can see only his users list.

I am trying to make a Contact form exclusive for Members. So as my first field (ID=username) I would like some VB script so that when the page loads it can identify the user that is accessing the page and display it in a read-only text ready for submission by email (with the email address and text area, don't worry about these because I know how to add these).
(here is my Contact us page code, nothing special but I'll give you it just in case)

The thing is that I'm creating a community fanpage, I have the membership database installed and I have created user profiles for the users, and it works fine. The thing I can't seem to find anywhere is how to capture the current logged on users username and save is as the author of a post in the database. Like right now, I'm writing a post, and when I click Post it will say it's written by Jeanz91 because I'm the user who's logged in. How do I get my site to do that?

I am creating a few web services for use with a mobile application. My current site uses asp .net membership and one of the web services will validate username and password.
In the web service I get passed uname and pword and just use
Code:
If Membership.ValidateUser(username, password) = True Then
Return "True"
Else
Return "false"
End If
Is there a similar way to get the userid without logging the user on or do I need to create a Stored procedure?

I have a web application which uses a session variable to store the logged in userid. If no user is logged in, of course this variable will be empty and the contents displayed on my website are meant for guests. If there is a user logged in, the user specific controls/access/links will then be a displayed.
I am now having issues with my hosting where on shared application pool, the worker recycle is triggered every 90 minutes, this will clear sessions causing all my users to be logged out. I opted for a dedicated application pool, which got worse because I am only allocated 50MB memory limit and if this is reached, the worker recycle is triggered and I lose my sessions again. I have tried as much as possible optimization techniques, e.g. dispose where possible, close connections, disable viewstate for static controls etc but my memory per instance keeps building up from page to page without any signs of improvement. I don't use loops nor store huge objects like bitmaps etc but my sessions are now gone even faster than 90 minutes in shared application pool before.
I have considered using SQL Session State but there isn't a simple guide on using this with MySQL. I am getting desperate and considering using a public variable, a string as a replacement to store logged in user id instead of in a session variable. I am pretty sure this will solve my issue with sessions being recycled but are there any negative consequences of doing this? One problem I can think of is if the user closes the browser, the system will never know that the user is now logged out and this public variable should be nothing. In this scenario, will the GC eventually clear this abandoned public variable.

I have a web application using Forms authentication provided by AD. I would like to know if it's possible to use EWS to send mail as the currently logged in user without having to supply credentials, or; would I be required to set up an account with impersonating access which will send mail on behalf of the currently logged in user?

How to retrieve the current authenticated logged in user's email address who is accessing the page.
I have managed to do it with users. How to get the current authenticated user's email address if that makes sense.
Here is my aspx code:
[Code]....
and my VB script:
[Code]....
Somebody suggested that I should run a query. If you know the user name accessing the page, surely you can take that information, insert it into a query to find out the email address of the user accessing the page. Sounds great but don't have a clue how to do it.

Let me tell you what I need to implement on my company .NET application and I will be more than glad to hear your advise how to do it:
For every user loged-in to the company website, We want to know on which page he is right now. It means, If user X is now on page "1.html", I need to save this information somewhere. If user X after 30-60 seconds going to page "2.html" I want to update it fast where he is now surfing. It means I want to be able to tell at REAL TIME, on each page, Which users are right now observing the page. This is the problem, now I'm looking for the right solution.
If some day my company website will have 400,000 user log-in at the same time, I am going to save to every one of them where he is surfing right now. Maybe I exaggerated, but we do have 45,000 users at the same time on the company web site and the number is growing. I think big so the solution for this problem will be good for a lot of users.
So, my data object for every user should keep this information somewhere:
1. User code (User Number).
2. Which page user is now observing (Page Number).
This object is going to update every 30-60 seconds by using AJAX, so it should be updated fast. It is a lot of reading/writing data. If a user want to see which other users are now on the same page as he his, he will be able to see it, just by going through the whole array of objects.
I don't need this information to be saved in DB, because it doesn't mean anything. It is temporary and changing A LOT. So, I think the right place to do it is using RAM at the the company server, using the Caching Data option. What do you think? Am I wrong?
If I am going to have a data table with lots of records and every record is going to be update every 30-60 seconds. Where should I save all this table data? I am using SQL Server 2008 to save important data as needed, but this data is not important to save, just need to use it for my purpose. Where should I save this data? I think saving it in DB is a bad idea, because of the dynamic update of records every few seconds. I am thinking about 100,000 users who update this table every few seconds. It probably going to kill my DB, so DB is not an option.
What is the right way to implement this kind of thing?
You may think of it like every page is "a chat room" and I want to know who enter now the room (the page), it doesn't have to be completely accurate in time, but approximately.

I want to check that the user trying to log-in is authenticated and it belongs to a certain role. For this I have wrote the following code
protected void btnLoginButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Admin"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Admin/Default.aspx");
}
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Editor"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Editor/Default.aspx");
}
if (this.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated && this.User.IsInRole("Moderator"))
{
Response.Redirect("~/Moderator/Default.aspx");
}
}
But when I ran this code it gave me this error error CS1061: 'Page' does not contain a definition for 'User' and no extension method 'User' accepting a first argument of type 'Page' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) I have already added following directives to cs page-
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Collections;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
Can anybody tell what directie I should add for "this.User" <P.S> My application is web based and it is in ASP.Net 3.5(C#).

I am working on an application where it stores information that different clients will be using. I need to figure out how to show the current client logged in only what they have posted to the application and not everything that has been posted to the application. Client 1 logs in and sees what they have posted; client 2 loggs in and sees what they have posted.....etc. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

We've got a fairly large, complex web application that uses Forms Authentication to authenticate users. Throughout the application we store and retrieve information about users in the Session object, and in some cases in cookies. In a couple places we check for the existence of the context, and if it's null we send the user back to the login page to re-establish the session. Just a quick run-down of this web app: C#, .NET 3.5, IIS 6, ASP.NET State Service to manage sessionAs for the session timer, we use our own home-grown timer, which is basically a client-side timer, which is backed up by a check to the SQL database to see when their last activity was. This seems to work well for us. It's not perfect, but it allows us to notify the user before the session times out, and allows us to be certain we're not logging a user out before their 60 minutes of inactivity is up.What's happening is that certain users are being logged out after just a few minutes. We've eliminated the timer as a cause and believe what's happening is the HttpContext.Current is null, so the user is logged out. We do not know why the HttpContext.Current is null, and I understand there are many reasons that may occur. What I'm trying to figure out is, is there any way to re-establish the context once it is null? If not, is there anything I can do at this point other than have the user login again? We're also trying to figure out a better way of managing user information (preferences, roles, flags, history, etc), but everything needs context to use, right? Cookies, sessions, cache, etc. all require a response or request, correct? hope this makes sense, because I really need help with this. I've searched the forums here, and found many posts about HttpContext.Current going null, but not a lot of solutions for this...

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

I need to insert a declaration in the codebehind function below that will make the variable "UserId" equal to the "logged-in user". In what way do I need to change the code below (elsewhere in the project, I successfully make reference to basically the same code and make the UserId equal to logged-in user by using this handler expression inside an image control: ImageUrl ='<%# Eval("UserId","Image.aspx?UserId={0}")%>'...But in the case below, the function is not fired by this expression, but rather by CustomValidator).
Sub ValidateImage(ByVal source As Object, ByVal args As System.Web.UI.WebControls.ServerValidateEventArgs)
If Request.QueryString("UserId") IsNot Nothing Then
' Get the connection string from Web.config.
Using conn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("MyDatabaseConnectionString").ToString())
' Create a command object.
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand()
' Assign the connection to the command.
cmd.Connection = conn
' Appendy the parameter to the SqlCommand and set value.
cmd.Parameters.Add("@UserId", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).Value = Guid.Parse(Request.QueryString("UserId"))
' Set the command text
' SQL statement or the name of the stored procedure.
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT Avatar FROM aspnet_Membership WHERE UserId = @UserId AND Avatar IS NOT NULL"
' Set the command type
' CommandType.Text for ordinary SQL statements;
' CommandType.StoredProcedure for stored procedures.
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
' Open the connection.
conn.Open()
' Convert the returned result to a bytes array.
Dim bytes As Byte() = DirectCast(cmd.ExecuteScalar(), Byte())
If bytes IsNot Nothing Then
' Set the HTTP MIME type of the output stream.
Response.ContentType = "image/jpeg"
' Write a string of Binary characters to the HTTP
' output stream.
Response.BinaryWrite(bytes)
' Send all currently buffered output to the client.
