VS 2010 / IIS7 - Mixed Mode Authentication
Sep 14, 2011
I am trying to implement single sign on for users within our domain and if the are not then they get re-directed to the login screen to use forms authentication.
I have followed this tutorial below
however I get two issues firstly if I go to my forms authentication page no css or images now display and if i try to login i get an error.
If I go to the login page which should recognise me from the AD I get 401 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied.

I'm having a tough time implementing mixed-mode authentication (windows & forms based) for my application using IIS 7. Doing it in IIS6 is easy, but the process doesn't translate to 7/7.5 - and my research has led to me to conflicting answers, none of which.
I have redirect page called WindowsLogin.aspx, and a forms-based one called Login.aspx. I'm having difficulty enabling Windows authentication for just WindowsLogin.aspx.

I have a question about mixed mode authentication. I've been doing some research into this, but I haven't found the answer yet, so I figured I'd just ask:
I have an internal application that requires login. Right now it's using forms-based authentication. We'd like to make it so that, if you're internal and authenticated against Active Directory, you don't need to login to the application. However, if you're coming in from the outside (or don't have an AD account), it would then require them to login via the forms-based Login.aspx page.
From my research, it seems that the only way to do this is to enable forms based auth as the default membership provider, then on the back-end do a check at Page_Load to pull their login name, match it against the .NET membership and then authenticate them automatically - am I wrong on this?
The documents I've found all seem to point to the user having to login anyway, just the login being stored in AD - instead of having the user just login once to their machine in the morning and using that to verify them and their roles in subsequent applications.

I created a mixed mode authentication mechanism based on a few of the articles that I have read on this topic. It's similar to something like this: [URL]
Basically, there are two web applications. One accepts the Windows Auth and one accepts Forms Auth. The Windows Auth then creates a forms auth ticket and passes control to the Forms auth application. This solution works fine when both applications are housed within the same IIS web site.
Now, order to control the security of this solution we set up multiple IIS web sites on the same machine. Web Site 1 serves external traffic (forms auth) and Web Site 2 serves internal traffic (windows auth).
So the design is that an internal user can hit the site using Windows auth via a internal name (myserver) while the external users use Forms Auth hitting [URL].
All that said, the solution works when the two applications are in the same site. Doesn't work when they are in different sites.

I had a problem login management studio (Sql server 2005) using windows authentication because it doesn't show me any server name to connect and if I put my computer name and user name (my-PCpatel) login was failed.
So, I decided to uninstall it and install it again using mixed mode authentication. After installation I select sql server authentication instead of windows authentication and put login name as "sa" and password that I had put it during installation. But the connect button is dark gray(the way I can not select it or press it on) while the other button (cancel, help, option) can be selected or pressed.So, why am i not able select or click on connect button?

Just to describe the scenario. I have a website. This lives on a webserver. On that webserver is an SQL server. The website connects to this database using windows authentication. I have written a windows form application that connects to the SQL Server on the webserver. This application is being run from a location on out intranet. The Winform application use SQL authentication to connect to the database. The SQL Server didn't have mix mode authentication enabled. So I enabled it. The winform application could now connect to the SQL Server.
This is where it starts getting a little strange.
The Website that was already connecting find using integrated authentication starts failing with:
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'
When you are enabling mixed mode authentication, you are adding another authentication method, why would the original Windows authentication fail?

my user will use form authentication against Active Directory or database. Theres no Windows Integrated Authentication there!!
What i want is when the user submit the authentication form, it will try to validate the user against Active Directory and if it fail, try with the database.
How can i do that? What i had in mind was to build a custom membership provider that will encapsulate the logic but im not sure how to start.

I have the requirement for internal users to acces our web app without loggin in manually so using windows authentication, external users need to be refered to a form based authentication.
Now I have implemented the solution [URL] ....
However I also need to employ roles for authorization. The forms side is all set up but I cannot seem to get it to work for the windows side of things, looking for implementing a mixed mode involving roles?
I tried adding in an extra provider
<providers>
<add name="SqlRoleManager" type="System.Web.Security.SqlRoleProvider" connectionStringName="aspnetdbConnection_dev" applicationName="Corp.Web.GSP"/>
but how to configure it for usse only by the windows users. Secondly if I set it as the default where I have code like
if (Roles.IsUserInRole("Internal") || Roles.IsUserInRole("SysAdmin") || Roles.IsUserInRole("Sales"))
{
I get an
Method is only supported if the user name parameter matches the user name in the current Windows Identity error
<add name="WindowsRoleProvider" type="System.Web.Security.WindowsTokenRoleProvider" />

I have a web application where users can authenticate using either SiteMinder or Windows domain accounts. This is actually configured as two separate virtual directories within IIS 6. Both applications need to use the same instance of SSRS. Is it possible to configure the SSRS web application so that if a user is authenticated by SiteMinder it impersonates a Windows account, but if they are already Windows-authenticated that account is used instead?

This is annoying more than anything, but I have no working Intellisense when I use any of my custom web controls in .aspx/.ascx pages. Intellisense in standard <asp:...> controls are fine, as it is in all code-behind files etc.
I'm pretty sure this is caused by Visual Studio attempting to analyse the website's bin folder for custom web controls, and throwing a hissy fit when it gets to one of the DLLs - a (mixed-mode) 64-bit managed C++ assembly (I'm running 64-bit Win 7). It seems that Visual Studio tries to load this assembly, and fails, due to VS being a 32-bit app.
I looked for an option to get VS to ignore the 64-bit assembly (there are no web controls in it - they exist in another standard assembly), but alas, nothing to be found.

I wanted my local iis running application to connect my database in sql authentication mode rather than windows mode,
but it is showing errors of " Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user 'DBUser'. ". i also ublocked port from firewall,and allowed remote connection of mssql from sql manager, enabled TCP/IP and named piped protocols from SQL surface config, and with sql manager i also changed server authentication mode to sql from windows.
my datastring is <add connectionString="Data Source=PARTHIV-PCSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=aspnetdb;User ID=******;Password=******/" name="LocalSqlServer" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
i made a user named DBUser in database as well i don't understand where it gone wrong ???
here is error log

First, a little background. I have written a custom HTTP compression module for ASP.NET. My development machine has Windows 7 Ultimate, which comes with IIS7. My production environment uses IIS6.
The problem I'm having is, Resource Expert Droid (redbot.org) tells me that I need to add a header to my response to properly support compression: "Vary: Accept-Encoding"
On IIS7 in integrated mode, it works properly. However, in classic mode, which is how my application ultimately runs, I cannot get my code to output this header using any of Response.AppendHeader(), Response.Cache.SetVaryByCustom(), or Response.Cache.VaryByHeaders.

we are running a complex 64-bit ASP.NET 2.0 application on W2008 R2 Standard and stress tests done with VS2008 Team System have indicated that integrated pipeline mode is 30% slower than classic mode.
We have compared the application traces extensively and it appears that integrated mode is uniformly slower than classic. That is, there is no single point that causes delays in integrated mode.
This is quite the opposite to everything Microsoft says about the integrated pipeline, so it might be that there is something quite wrong with the configuration of the integrated mode or the server. But we have not found any settings that would have any effect on this. Some complaints that Sharepoint and reporting services are slower in integrated mode can be found, but our application does not use them so this is quite likely unrelated.

I have a need to run an application in classic mode for backwards compatibility with a specific application, and am trying to understand what kind of impact that will have on the performance of an MVC application that is running on the site. If we put a few static file maps (for .js, .css, .png, etc) above the ASP.NET wildcard map to reduce the amount of processing by the ASP.NET handler, will we be approaching the integrated mode in terms of performance?
The thing i'm primarily concerned with is any effect this might have on output caching. I understand that integrated mode might (?) allow for the output cache to handle non ASP.NET content, but that isn't really a concern. We're more interested in ensuring that the MVC application has full use of the output cache. Empirically i've found that the two configurations operate on par when things go well, but if the page references resources that are not available, the integrated mode tends to fail much more quickly than the classic mode (e.g. 500 ms vs 10 seconds), reducing 'hang time' on the page load.

I fill a third-pard component variable in Global.Application_BeginRequest(). Everything is fine until I set IIS7 into the Integrated mode. In that case the method Application_BeginRequest() is not called (Application_Start is ok).May be some module is registered wrong?(I have found a same problem here on forum, but without a solution:[URL]

I just switched from Classic Mode to Integrated Mode and now HttpContext doesn't seem to exist in my ASP.NET application. I can't even add a Watch to HttpContext nor to HttpContext.Current.
I'm using FluorineFX where in the Web.config a HttpModule is defined. Apparently, in IIS7 Integrated Mode, these HttpModules need to be added to the Modules section in System.WebServer. I have done this, but now I'm having this HttpContext problem...
Code is in a simple service class being called by Flex (amf).
if (HttpContext.Current.User.Identity != null)
{
...
Web.Config (I don't know how to display this properly in Stack...):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

In IIS6 the scenario below is working perfectly.I have an HttpModule called URLRedirect which examines URLS and by using RegEx rewrites of applicable. An example is a URL "/doc47.pdf" gets redirected to docpdf.ashx?id=47 Then the docpdf.ashx used the id value and, using a database builds an application/pdf document and returns it. Since I need to validate that the user has access to the data, the first line of the ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) function is:if (context.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) ..... This is where the problem occurs, but more details first.
On a webpage, access to which is restricted to lgged on users who meet certain criteria there is a link which allows the user to present the page as a PDF document. This is achieved by using javascript to open a popup window using the window.open("/doc47.pdf", ... ) function.This all works fine under IIS6 and under IIS7 if I change the mode to Classic. But, under IIS7 in integrated mode, the following happens.The line in doc.ashx described above raises an exception because context.User == null. But, and this is interesting, if instead of using the link that opens the popup window I instead type /doc.pdf?id=47 into the address bar, the PDF document displays correctly.So this indicates to me that the URLRedirect Module is somehow losing the logged on user information.

am trying to write an HttpModule that will work in IIS7 with integrated pipeline mode AppPool. Within this module I need to access Session variables and to be able to capture the Session Start and End events. I have found a couple of articles on this topic that indicate the need to modify the behavior of the HttpHandler in PostAcquireRequestState to force the Session for the context to be initialized. The article I am using as a template is posted here:[URL]In my case I am getting the following error:
[NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.] System.Web.PipelineModuleStepContainer.GetEventCount(RequestNotification notification, Boolean isPostEvent) +30 System.Web.PipelineStepManager.ResumeSteps(Exception error) +1112
System.Web.HttpApplication.BeginProcessRequestNotification(HttpContext context, AsyncCallback cb) +113 System.Web.HttpRuntime.ProcessRequestNotificationPrivate(IIS7WorkerRequest wr, HttpContext context) +616
I believe that this error implies a problem with attempting to attach an event handler multiple times. I am aware that the modules Init function can be called more than once and have set a static initialization flag which ensures that I will only ever attach the event handler once.In the most condensed form my code is as follows:
public class HttpModule : IHttpModule, IRequiresSessionState

Our code relies on checking the Context.User.Identity value in the Global.asax Application AuthenticateRequest(...) method to retrieve some information about the logged in user. This works fine in classic mode but when I flip IIS to use the Integrated Pipeline "Context.User" comes back as null, but only intermittently.I have < authentication mode="Windows"> and only Windows Auth enabled in the Virtual Directory.

I have an application that ran fine on a Win 2003 box using windows authentication. After installing the app on a 32-bit Windows Server 2008 box the users are now prompted for domain credentials every time they call the site. I went into IIS manager for IIS7 and disabled anonymous authentication and enabled windows authentication. What do I need to do here for the user to not be prompted for the credentials?

I have an ASP.NET web application that is using forms authentication. Everything is configured and working correctly. However, i'm dealing with the issue of creating and maintaining users and role membership.
I know that I can roll my own solution but I'm wondering if there is an alternative solution?
Does iis7 provide screens for managing forms authentication users? Is there a reliable, free solution that someone would recommend?
