I've got a website project and I use my own login security and save the user and other info in session variables. Is there any way to know when they are online and offline by their user name I have in a session variable? Or do I need to use another method such as the asp.net user security?
I do know with the asp.net security I can check if a user is authenticated.
We have implemented the ASP membership and roles..and we would like to display the users currently logged in and also display the number of users online so we can display that on the page. The list of users woudl only be available to our admins. BUt the number of users will show for everyone.
View 9 RepliesWorking on my first asp.net webpage. i have followed video tutorials and implemented asp.net membership for login/security.Using Visual Studio 2010 i can open the Asp.net configuration page for management locally.But then if I want my site admin to manage users/security online, how is this done? Like manage through a web browser. I guess this asp.net configuration GUI is not available on the internet?

View 1 Replieshow to write/use/implement a script that will allow users to enter a web application by clicking a button rather than entering their ID/PW? Seems like a lot of terminology around, SSO, Blind logon, yet all seem to be doable with an ASP script -
Web App contains detailed security for users, not all users are on Win AD, so that is not an option., I'm told (?) Do I need to use a spreadsheet to validate users access to the application, ?
Script that would pass "cookie" info and allow users to enter app without ID/PW. We have a custom logon.asp page the is using forms.
I have an asp login control that uses the standard aspnet database structure.I am using my own user identification system to identify a user based on login values that are not in the aspnet database and setting the user's aspnet database login to a universal login user and password.this works fine and I am able to test this by having one machine log in as "User 1" and another login as "User 2" but I am wondering if there is a limit to the number of user's that can be assigned to one username and password in the aspnet database for website access?Will the system reach the max number of user's in the aspnet database?

I have a website which have been running for about a year without any problems. Users have been able to login etc, but now I get reports about users not able to login while using Internet Explorer. Users using other internet browsers like FireFox, Chrome etc have no trouble logging in.
The website are using the standard Forms authentication.
Also lately another website has been setup in IIS7, but these sites are using application pool. I've stopped this webapplication in IIS, but that doesn't have any effect on my problem
I see that Windows Update have failed to install a lot of patches lately, not sure if that is related to this problem. But some of the windows patches are security patches.
I'm at the point where I want to allow users to register at my site and then allow users to login, so I am trying to get a feel for how everyone is handling this use case.

View 5 RepliesI want to know how to do Active Directory Authentication in my intranet web application,
So far I created a simple login page and I am using the login control. my questions are how do I configure the application, how do I interface the login control so it will take the user to next page once they input their usual active directory username and password.
we have a web site (Web Site 1) which is presently working and authenticates the users using ASP.Net login control.
We have a new site (Web Site 2) which will have a web page with user name and password fields and these values will be posted to Web Site 1. I am trying to authenticate those user credentials on Web Site1 using
Membership.ValidateUser(UserName, Password); method. but i am keep getting "User AuthenticatedObject reference not set to an instance of an object. " exception.
how can I use the login control which already exist in visual studio 2008 without even writing a line of code ?
View 4 RepliesI have a page in my application which always shows updated list of online users. Now, to keep the list-which is stored in application object- updated, i do the below steps
add user to list when login remove user on log off Then to handle browser close/navigate away situations, I have a timestamp along with the username in the collectionAn ajax call every 90 seconds updates the timestamp.
The problem:
I need something to clean this list every 120 seconds to remove entries with old timestamps.
How do I do this within my web application? ie Call a function every 2 mins.
PS: I thought of calling a webservice every 2 mins using a scheduler , but the hosting environment do not allow any scheduling.

I need a reliable way of checking if a user is logged into a web based game. This is the scenario:
I have a game on the front end built in Flash with Actionscript 3, that calls a web Service in .NET. So in some way I'd like to create a reliable way of getting a list of users that are logged into the game. I would need to create a Timer in Actionscript that calls a method in the Web Service every certain amount of time, but I'm not sure which is the best way to do it on the server side.
I remember in the old days with classic asp I'd use global.asa and it was not reliable at all. Also, checking a database with a boolean, would always depend on the user clicking on "logout". So i guess there needs to be some kind of asyncronous coding in there somehow.
