Use SharePoint To Authenticate Users On Separately Hosted Website?
Oct 27, 2010
The behaviour I would like is for a user to be able to visit a custom built website and if they are already authenticated against sharepoint for the custom website to know who they are and give them various rights. If they are not recognised by sharepoint then I would like them to login to sharepoint and be directed back to the custom website. Sharepoint picks its users and groups up from Active Directory. I don't know much about the internals of the server, but the custom one will be in a separate domain (I think) though I have full control over the custom and moderate control over the SP infrastructure.

I have a WCF service that runs in my web application that provides data to a Silverlight application and is defined as follows (with an appropriate .svc file)....
[ServiceContract(Namespace = "")]
[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
public class DispatchService [code]...
The idea is that the user logs into the website and is then authorised for all services. I do not want to have a login aspect to my Silverlight application to authenticate users.Therefore I dont want anyone to be able to call my service who is not authenticated.
Could I...Somehow determine this for each Operation Contract. I had a look inside the OperationContext object but couldnt find anthing that stood out as a way to determine who the user was.Somehow attribute the ServiceContract so that the method can only be used by authorised users?Put something in my web.config to stop unathorised users from being able to access the folder containing the services?

I have been asked to use the login control to authenticate users to use the website. I have a master page which has header pictures and a menu down the left. I have created a login form and configured my web.config file to use form authentication but when I run it, it does not show my master page just the content page. Should my login page not be a content page?

I'm looking at starting a new web app which needs to be secure (if for no other reason than that we'll need PCI (Payment Card Industry) accreditation at some point). From previous experience working with PCI (on a domain), the preferred method is to use integrated windows authentication which is then passed all the way through the app to the database using kerberos (so the NT user has permissions in the DB). This allows for better auditing as well as object-level permissions (ie an end user can't read the credit card table). There are advantages in that even if someone compromises the webserver, they won't be able to glean any/much additional information from the database. Also, the webserver isn't storing any database credentials (beyond perhaps a simple anonymous user with very few permissions for simple website config)
So, now I'm looking at the new web app which will be on the public internet. One suggestion is to have a Active Directory server and create windows accounts on the AD for each user of the site. These users will then be placed into the appropriate NT groups to decide which DB permissions they should have (and which pages they can access). ASP.Net already provides the AD membership provider and role provider so this should be fairly simple to implement. There are a number of questions around this - Scalability, reliability, etc... and I was wondering if there is anyone out there with experience of this approach or, even better, some good reasons why to do it / not to do it.

I am trying to develop a internal corporate portal that will be hosted external either on company leased decicated server or by hosting service like godaddy. The company portal is going to have links internal and external resources like Outlook Web Access and Sharepoint, Great Plains, our CRM software, etc, etc. I am basically creating intranet site for the company but the intranet is going to be hosted externally.
How do I authenticate user against the Active Directory, when the intranet site is hosted remotely?

I have a situation where I have to autheticate SharePoint user to another website that is not part of the sharepoint domain without asking user to login again.
I have sharepoint part of domain1. I have users in domain1 that log into sharepoint using NTLM by authenticating to domain1. I don't have any control over this domain and sharepoint configuration. I am working on a ASP.net application which needs to authenticate users from domain1 without prompting users for login if they have already logged into sharepoint server.
I may be able to install a webpart on the Sharepoint if this allows me to do single sign on between sharepoint and my application.

I'm NTLM (authenication="windows" in the web.config) with an asp.net mvc 2.0 site. Right now once a user logs in it keeps them logged in for weeks at a time. The use of the application is being opened up to users who share computers that use logged in service accounts. I need the site to reprompt each user for their AD credentials each time in order to handle these users. (Activity on the site must be linked to a uniquely identified user.)

I have the IIS webserver on Domain A. I have many users on Domain B, C, D, E.
I've set the NTFS security permission for each user and his/her domain to the webserver's security ntfs permission folder. But it is still not authenticating. So what do I need to do to enable this feature? I am using windows 2003 webserver.

I am working on an app where users are only allowed access if they click through from certain URLs. I.e. I need to authenticate by using the referral url and I am using
Request.UrlReferrer to achieve this.
I am guessing that the Request.UrlReferrer can be tampered with by malicious users to gain access...

I need to authenticate users based on three parameters such as username, password and officename instead of just username and password. User name is unique only across the single office and not across the application.
Can I achieve this using Membership class and if yes do I need to write any custom code for that?

I am trying to integrate authentication for a cloud-based application with an Active Directory forest behind my cilent's firewall.
I am a Python developer from the open-source world... needless to say, .NET is not my forte and I'm not familiar with authentication technologies provided by IIS/WIF/etc.
I have installed DotNetOpenAuth and gotten the sample MVC OpenID provider working with the included ReadOnlyXmlMembershipProvider.
I have scoured Google for a sample config/implementation or any documentation at all that describes the appropriate membership provider to use. The only thing I have found are hints - "It's included out of the box," or "create a .NET app that authenticates off of AD and expose OpenID."
How can I query off my client's AD? Is there a provider included with DNoA?

If I am on a website#1, and I enter my username/pwd for website#2 on a login page that is on website#1, and website#1, behind the scenes, makes a httpwebrequest to website#2 and posts to the login page. If I then navigate to website#2, should I be logged in? website#2 uses formsauthentication and I call a httpHandler that is on website#2 and pass it the username/password via the querystring. Should this work?

Being new to integrating sharepoint documents into web applications I am struggling with the following task, so anyI have a page in my web application that needs to display a document from sharepoint.I use the appropiate sharepoint web service to get a list of all the documents in the sharepoint list, I then pick out the one I would like to retrieve and get the path to the document so i would end up with something like:
Company%20Hire/Hire%20Site%20Price%20Lists/0.pdf
Within our network I can do following:
iframePdf.Attributes[
"src"] = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SharepointUrl"] + _filePath;
This would display the document in iframe... problem I have is coming from outside the network the sharepoint site can't be accessed (due to firewalls etc). We do have a vpn back to our network on the external server our web application sits on. If i was to use the document url in a browser on the server I am prompted for credentials and then get to view the document.Is there a way for the web application to use the vpn, use credentials i give (e.g through impersonation) to access the document and display it to exernal clients?

I have an asp.net web app that uses forms-based authentication, a SqlMembershipProvider (using an encrypted password format), and a SqlRoleProvider. I need to know if it's possible to administer the users (create new users, assign them to roles, etc.) from a windows application - the powers that be don't want any administrative functionality in the web app itself.
Here is the membership provider definition from web.config:
[code]....
So, obviously, I have a Sql Server database that contains the users and roles for the web app. I'd like to create a separate windows app that references the web app assembly, and use the configured MembershipProvider, RoleProvider, and machineKey to create users, assign users to roles, etc. If that's not possible, I can duplicate the configuration settings from web.config within the windows app. But I don't know how to do this either.

I am currently creating a .NET based (website/system) solution for small IT companies and I am offering it in a self-hosted package, which means my clients are going to mainly install it on their own servers. How do I make sure my system is not being run except on one server per client and no body is illegally-copying it to other servers/machines?
