I'm have a doubt using membershipuser to create users in the AD with Membership.CreateUser Method, does any one knows how can i send other attibutes to the AD, such as First Name and Last Name?, besides those ones: username
As String, _
password As String, _
email As String, _
passwordQuestion As String, _
passwordAnswer As String,
I create custom principal for implement logic for users. In identity I store Id, Name. But it abnormally - this classes must use for authenticate and authorize.
I can implement custom MembershipUser, custom Roles and Membership provider.
How to do it? What best practices are?
Writing a custom membership / role provider and have to validate user with extra parameter to Membership.Validate. So, instead of Membership.Validate(username, password) I need Membership.Validate(username, password, client).
Is this possible with the existing MembershipProvider? I would have liked to pass a new MembershipUser to the Validate method but didn't see anything that would work for that.
I created a custom membership provider and am getting the following error trying to create a new "MembershipUser".
Could not load type 'MyTestApp.Membership.TestMembershipProvider' from assembly 'System.Web, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a'.
I am running this from a Unit Test project, so I'm not sure if that's causing the issue, but I did include System.Web, System.Web.ApplicationServices as well as a reference to MyApp.Membership and MyApp.DataModels (Entity objects).
The error happens inside my "GetUser" function which is below, my configuration is also below.

My question relates to membership providers. I have two websites that run on two different servers. One website is a community website that uses Telligent community server 2007. The other is a website that contains information. I have a form where users can request more information. What I would like to do is when a user requests more information, automatically create a user account in my community website. I was told that I can create a custom asp.net membership provider that will create a new user account in my community website. I have read some info at msdn and asp.net websites, but I am still unclear as to how I can create a custom membership provider that will work across different websites running on different servers.
View 1 RepliesI am using the createuserwizard but have also created my own database where the data will be stored NOT using the standard aspnetdb.
But i am getting checkschemaversion errors when registering the user. The thing is that the data actually gets stored in my own db even though error occurs.
I am using Membership createuser but how can i override this to use with my own db rather the aspnetdb where it requires all standard tables and stored procedures to be created
I want to create a custom membership provider which doesnot has Password Question and Password Answer fields. But has some other extra fields.Is it possible? I am asking this because if I inherit MembershipProvider class then I get forced to use default CreateUser Method which has password question and password answer parameters. I don't want these parameters.

I'm creating a new middle tier where all of our client calls will go through a WCF service. We're using ASP.NET membership with the service in order to authenticate users. The middle tier will be hitting an existing database in which we already have an InetUsers table containing usernames and passwords.This is where it starts to get messy. This new middle tier will be used by our web application, but not by our existing desktop application, which will - until we rewrite it at some point in the future - be using the old COM+ middle tier. Administration of the users for the web application takes place in the desktop application. In other words, users will be created and passwords set and changed from within the desktop application, which in turn hits the already existing InetUsers table.Ideally, what will happen is when we deploy the new middle tier, we'll take all of the users from the InetUsers table and create records for them in aspnet_Users and aspnet_Membership. Then we'll set a trigger on the InetUsers table to keep aspnet_Users and aspnet_Membership up-to-date.There's a whole bunch of questions wrapped up in this, so I'll try and list them all out here:Is this the right approach? Obviously having this data in two places isn't ideal, but bear in mind here that I'm not the final decision maker here and we're kinda stuck with some legacy stuff here, at least for now. Still - maybe there's a better way.In the same vein - would we be better off coding our own membership provider rather than using the SqlMembershipProvider? How difficult/easy is it to do so?If we use this approach, I plan on using the aspnet_Membership_XXXX stored procedures for the initial population of the tables as well as in the triggers. Having done some research into this, it appears that if I want to call aspnet_Membership_CreateUser directly from SQL (ie in a trigger...) rather than using the API, I have to store clear text passwords since I can't get the salt and the hash right otherwise. Is this true?Does any of this even make sense or am I going about this the wrong way to begin with?
View 2 RepliesI had to upgrade a sites ecuroty from a custom system to .net membership. I created all the users like this.
ds = Wservices.SelectBulkUsers()
If Not ds Is Nothing AndAlso Not ds.Tables(0) Is Nothing AndAlso ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then
For Each dr In ds.Tables(0).Rows
username = dr("username")
password = dr("password")
role = dr("SecurityClearance")
email = dr("email")
Dim newUser As MembershipUser = Membership.CreateUser(username, password, email, "", "", True, status)
Select Case role
Case "1"
Roles.AddUserToRole(username, "normal user")
Case "2"
Roles.AddUserToRole(username, "administrator")
Case "3"
Roles.AddUserToRole(username, "super administrator")
End Select
If newUser Is Nothing Then
errorMsg = username & " - " & status.ToString & "<br />"
End If
Next
litResult.Text = errorMsg

I thought everything was fine and then went through the labourious task of replacing all the usersids used a as a foreign key in all the tables. It was only after doing this and trying to log on I couldnt, and noticed the membership table was empty. I assumed (stupidly) as it had done the users/ roles it must have done the membership. As I have already re-assigned the old user ids I dont want to import again as the userid will chnage. So my question is: Can I create a membership for each of the users in my aspnet_users table? I have the passwords etc in varchar fields at min from old table.
how can I add default users in my web.config to test my asp: login control
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to have an ASP.NET website which allows users to register and login, without using a MembershipProvider?

I want to migrate users and posts from an existing forum I am using to a ASP.NET membership table without using CreateUser. Basically I want to maintain userIDs so that when I migrate posts they continue to associate with the correct users. Is there a way to do this or would I be better off just using CreateUser and then finding a way to re-assign the post-by-UserIDs to the correct new IDs?

I have a custom membership provider TestMembershipProvider which inherits from MembershipProvider. It has the following CreateUser method:

No matter what I write into textboxes, following error is being returned:
The password retrieval question provided is invalid.
I don't know why. Either in web.config or in get RequiresQuestionAndAnswer I have false value. When I instantiate my TestMembershipProvider and call CreateUser directly instead of using static Membership.CreateUser, it works fine. Do I have to use instance of my TestMembershipProvider or did I missed anything?
I have a database of users that we used to have on a different system. The users already have their username and passwords associated with.
Now we are switching the entire system to .Net , and we will be using the membership to authenticate the users and start creating the new users with the wizard.
My question is : how could we import the users from a different database (mysql) , to the membership database on MS SQL ?
And also the passwords on the mysql database are in clear text , when we import them to the membership database on ms sql , is it going to apply the hash on them ?

I am using ASP.NET MVC 3. I am using what essentially came with for free in the Visual Studio project template for an MVC project with the "Internet Application" option. Basically this brings in Forms authentication and provides some basic elements to manage user login and stuff.
I am also using the web profiles stuff with this to store some custom fields. Everything was going great. I use SuperFunProfile as a wrapper around the Profile instance to make it easier to get at profile properties. Until I wanted to set a property of a Profile right away after signing the user up.The problem I can't solve is that this.Request.RequestContext.HttpContext.Profile contains the profile for the anonymous user. How can I get a new profile for the user now that he should be signed up and signed in?
public ActionResult SignUp(SignUpModel model)
{
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
[code]....
I poked around Membership and Web.Profile, but I am not seeing anything that looks like it will get me closer to my goal.Maybe I should just create a ProfileModel that I store myself into the DB rather than using Web.Profile? I could key that on MembershipUser.ProviderUserKey which would make it easier to create a ProfileModel at sign up, I suppose.
I currently built a custom form using VS 2005 to accommodate administrators when deleting users from the membership "aspnetdb" database.
I set the method for the objectDataSource to use "DeleteUser(String username, Boolean delete All Related Data), returns Boolean".
When I run the application and click the delete link from my gridview I receive the following error message:
"Value cannot be null. Parameter name: username"
How do I get the value for username?
I have been diligently learning all about the asp.net membership framework and have a test site running it all. However, during my testing, it became apparent that deleting users would be useful. I can delete users from the "aspnet_users" & "aspnet_Membership" tables simply by right-clicking on the table in server explorer, selecting "show table data", highlight the rows and press delete!!
However, this is a pain and I would much rather do this properly from code behind.
I have found out that the membership schema supplies a large number of "stored procedures" including "Delete_Users" however, when I execute this one manually, I have no idea what the last two parameters are (number of tables and something else from memory - the first two "application name" and "username" are easy to copy in to the dialog.
show me a sample set of VB code that I can use behind a "Delete User" button on my webform including how I supply the parameters. I have set up a drop down list box from teh "aspnet_users" table which displays the "UserName" and has as the SelectedValue "UserId".
I used [URL] as a guide and have something configured to show me the users which are logged into the system. This uses the aspnet_Users.LastActivityDate column to see when someone last did something on the system. It also uses the userIsOnlineTimeWindow within the web.config to determine whether a user is online or not.
But because of this userIsOnlineTimeWindow limitation of .NET, even when someone logs out of the system or closes their browser window, the system still sees them as being online. Also, if they are on a page and don't do anything for 10 minutes, the system will show them offline until they refresh their page or go to another page. know of a better, more real-time way to tracking users which are logged in, logged out, etc?
I don't want to wait 10 minutes for the system to show that a user is offline and also if there's 10 minutes of inactivity, it shows them being offline.
I would like to collect all the emails from all users in a certain role. How would I do this ?
