I have three roles:
AdminEditorGeneral
How can i give acces so to:
1- All users in roles Admin and Editor
2- Specific users from role General
i tried this but with no luck:
[Code]....
I quickly setup Roles to get my site up, but now I am going back and tightening them up. I have a custom SQL Server database Provider to hold users.I want 3 Roles, Admins, Progress and then a standard User.I have all the files only Admins to use are in a folder SecureAdminI have all the files only Progress to use are in a folder SecureProgress And all the files that everybody has access to are in the Secure Folder.As soon as I added the Custom XML Site provider, my Tree View disppeared. I would assume it's because my roles are not configured correct. I can use the ASP.NET configuration tool to see my roles and users, but any combination I try in there doesn't seemto do anything. I see most examples have some code like below.
[code]...
But even when I set up some roles in the ASP.Net configuration, I never see anything like that added to my web.config? Is this because it is stored in the database? If not, what what I add to my web.config to make this work?
I am not able to allow/deny users based on roles in the web.config (using <location path>). The following does not work even if the user is in the 'Admin' role:[Code]....
I am able successfully execute IsUserInRole() and GetRolesForUser() in the codebehind and get expected results. The same applies to the web.sitemap, adding roles in there do not seem to apply to the user even if he is a member of the role.
Here is my web.config (trimmed some sections out so it's not too long):[Code]....
And web.sitemap:
[Code]....
[ASP.NET 3.5, FormsAuthentication, SQL Server]
In the Roles table there is Role, and RoleType.
I have 3different roles, 2 of which have sub-roles.
Example
Role----------------------Type
Adminstrator
Subscriber---Basic
Subscriber---Business
I need to implement Code Access Security, and URL based security using the roles & types...
For instance, the (Subscriber/Basic) would need to view a different set of pages, and have different access to things then a (Subscriber/Business).
I think I can handle the Code Access security with a custom attribute, but I am unsure to how enforce a User be apart of 2 roles in the URL Authorization.
I am currently using the web.config to deny/allow access to the directories/pages.
e.g.
/Areas/Admin/web.config
[Code]....
Is it possible to force the user to be apart of 2 roles with this technique?
well i have a simple application using an authentication (user and password) before accessing and there are several roles bound to each user.
in my web.config i have configured the acces for each page according to each role, this is an example below:
[Code]....
and i have 2 users:
1: admin (default role: administrator)
2: guest (default role: role1)
my problem is as follows:
if i give acces to the user "guest" to open the "admin.aspx" page with changin him his role from "role1" to "administrator", this one do not function except if i recharge the web.config file to the server it's just after this manipulation that this user "guest" arrives to open the page "admin.aspx".
i don't know why this problem occurs, normally changing the user role will applies instantaneously.
I need to design a system that will control access to certain information. The requirement from the user is to use access levels e.g.
Level 1 - Support
Level 2 - Manager
Level 3 - Senior Manager
Level 4 - Department Head
etc.
If a certain piece of information is marked as Level 1, then all roles should be able to view that piece of information. If it is marked as level 3, then only the Senior Manager and Department Head can view it, but the Manager and Support roles can't view it.
Questions
When I assign the access level to a piece of information, will I have to assign multiple roles to it in order for me to achieve this functionality? Is there a better way of doing this?
How can i ristrict access to controls depending on users roles, on a page.?
View 1 Repliesin my app i want to create two types of users. (1) 'staff' (2) 'admin'
i have a page called registration which basically creates a user. i used the asp.net configuration wizard to create roles and set access rights to certain pages and this works great.
however, if i was to deploy this app then users wouldnt have access to the asp.net wizard therefore not be able to create users with roles/access.
so how can i do this in code? can i create a drop down in the registration page with two values (staff and admin) which will represent roles and then another drop down with access rights? (allow/deny)
how can i now program these drop down and make it work like i would normally do using asp.net configuration wizard?
I have a web.config file with <authorization> section. I'm using window authentication.
The problem is that I would like to allow access to the web site to those users who are in multiple roles.
For example:
<authorization>
<allow roles = "Role1 AND Role2"/>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
(Meaning I would like to allow access only to those user who are both in Role1 AND Role2.)
Is this possible to achive this?
If not, what would be the alternatives?
Note: Currently I'm doing the roles assignment in the Global.asax file in the OnAuthenticateRequest event (i'm reading the groups that the current user belong to in the Active Directory).
I am working on an application that resides on a development server on our internal network. The application was originally written to use Membership and Roles. We got busy almost a year ago before the app was finished, and now we are trying to get it ready to use internally.
The login page works just fine, but I have lost the ability to controls users and roles. I am running Visual Studio 2010 Professional now on a Windows 7 VM. I can open the application fine but there is no Web Administration Tool available for me to manage users or roles. If I go to Website -> in Visual Studio, there is no option for ASP.NET Configuration in the drop down menu. It simply isn't there.
How can I regain access to manage users and roles for this application? We are using Forms authentication and the database resides on a SQL Server 2005 instance on a separate box from the web server and my local VM.
Will someone point me to a tutorial on how to hide and denied access to certain pages based on what roles the user is in?

I'm using vs 2005 and asp.net 2.0 to create my website. Recently, I thought about applying membership instead of my customized security system in order to achieve higher security level and performance. At first thing went well, since it was easy to create/manage users and Role names from behind code, but when I came upon the "Access Rules" I faced what you can call it an 'obstacle' at least from my opinion.
The thing is, I don't want to use Asp.net Web Site Administration Tool to create and manage my access rules which I'm going to assign to each of my dynamically created Roles. What I want to be able to do is make a page where the Admin can create/manage his desired Role(s) and also, create/manage the Access Rules, then add such Access Rules to the previously created Role(s).
Now, what I need to know first is... is it even possible to do such thing in the first place? Because the way i understand it is, since the access rules are stored in the web.config of each folder/directory that you apply them on then it shouldn't be allowed to modify it from the running/published website.
I am "DomainMyDomainUserName" If I do this:
[Code]....
I can access the website I've created on my local machine in debug mode; and with my domain account as a local administrator, if I do this:
[Code]....
I can still access the website; and with my domain account in a Domain Group named "DomainDomainLocalSecurityGroup", if I do this:
[Code]....
I can still access the website; HOWEVER, if I create a Local Group on my machine named "LocalMachineGroup" and I add "DomainMyDomainUserName" to this group and I do this:
[Code]....
I get an Access Denied error trying to access the website. What I want to do is, have a group on my local machine (for testing), on a test web server, and on a production web server named "MyWebsiteUserAccess" with the same Domain Group (filled with Domain Users allowed access to the site) in all of these local groups; so that when I test the web application on my local machine, on my test web server and on my production web server, I don't have to change the Web.config file to have it work on each AND if the Domain Group name ever has to change, it won't affect access to the website.
What am I overlooking or is this even possible to do this way? I understand that there is a way to do Role Management through ASP.NET but I don't understand that well enough yet to implement that (and will probably go that route once I've done the research on how to best implement it for purpose of access control of this intranet site).
I need to put windows authentication on a site (so when a user access the site they are prompted with a username/password box) but I need certain IP addresses to bypass this authentication.

I have implemented Membership and Role Provider in my web site. Membership and Role information is stored in database created from aspnet_regsql option.
I want to store the access rights given to the pages in ASP.NET Configuation option in Database inspite of web.config file and want to give page wise add, edit, view and delete rights that should also be stored in database.
Is there any inbuit class like Membership and Role to add page access rights?

View 2 RepliesI'm planning to make a page that has about 10 different pages for varying use, for example, stats, data entry, reports, logistics, audit, sales, promo, etc etc. I'm anticipating there will be many combinations as to what pages a user may have access to, for each page, a user ought to be authorized to either enter new data, edit data, print and/or just view.
My questions are :
1. can membership & roles be used, once user is logged in, to display links to all the areas of the web app he is allowed access to?
[code]....
2. besides having access to a particular page, a user should, as mentioned before, be authorized to either enter new, edit, print and/or just view data.
3. Is there a preferred/better method to handle this besides using membership & roles?
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
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name="Compra" loginUrl="wfLogin.aspx" path="/" protection="All" timeout="30" />
</authentication>
<authorization>
<allow users="*"/>
</authorization>
Then this to restrict folder
<location path="Admin">
<system.web>
<authorization>
<deny users="*"/>
</authorization>
</system.web>
</location>
the problem is that when the user login with valid information the website return to the login form.
Newb question: what is the standard practice for assigning roles to newly signed-on members. Is it usually manual or is there a way of automatically assigning roles. Being completely new to this, I am confronted by the issue of my site having three different roles that new members could fall into, but am unsure about how to assign each a role. I can't imagine having to go through the process manually if I have thousands of members.
