View 1 RepliesI want to create a simple user registration form with First / Last name, email, and password. We have used captcha and email verification in the past to ward off bots, but is there another way without using those techniques? I thought about encrypting the field ID names so that they aren't names username, password, etc. we tried openID, but 1% of our users had an ID they could use.
View 1 RepliesIm a newbie to the world of ASP and C#, I have just created my first Registration form using the CreateUserWizard Membership Provider and set up the validators which work great, Appart from the "Username". If the user name is taken the page simply refreshes and no error appears would be realy greatfull if somone could point out where I might be going wrong. Here is my current code :
SCRIPT
protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/* User is created and setting extra parameters to profile */

I'm building an ASP.NET MVC 2 site, where I want to have users verify their email address after they register.
I want to send an email to the address with a link that the user can click to verify their email, and then handle the clicking of that link (the link will contain a specific id, of course).
Of course, this is easy to manually implement, but is there anything already built in to ASP.NET that has such a function?
I don't know if it has to be with my application but the thing is that I created a registration form, when the user registers an automatic mail from my mail account at my hosting site is send to the mail account the user input.
The code is working I have tested it with a Hotmail and Yahoo account but Gmail is not receiving.
It is important to say that Hotmail and Yahoo receive the email at the junk mail folder, but Gmail not receives it in any folder. I check my mail account for bouncebacks but there is no problem.
If I change the code to send mails from my gmail account no matter what mail account the user inputs it will receive the mail. I've already contacted my hosting site support but they say they can't find any problem.
I've already waited 48 hours because maybe gmail account would take longer to receive the email but I haven't received it.
Here is my send email code:

I have a custom membership user class and custom MembershipProvider working against database. Due to security reasons the user passwords are stored in the database as hashed values. So my procedure
public override bool ValidateUser(string username, string password) is
{
//select hashed password from db
return (EncodePassword(password) == dbpassword)
}
[code]....
Is it possible for a user to recover their password by entering their e-mail address alone?
Right now I am using the PasswordRecovery control, and i have security questions disabled. So all the user has to do is put their User Name, and hit submit, then their password is e-mailed to them.
But, a lot of my users forget their User Name, so right below I have a User Name recover section. The user inputs their e-mail address, and their corresponding user name shows up.
I would like to simplify this and just require the user's e-mail address to provide them their user name AND password.
i am working on membership concepts in asp.net. Now i want to reset new password and getpassword for specific user.
this is my web.config code:

i have implemented asp. net membership authentication and one of my users has forgotten his password.
The passwords are hashed and when i try retrieveing his password i get the error that password retrieval is not available for hashed passwords.
Should i reset the password?
I am working on membership concepts in asp.net. Now i want to reset new password and getpassword for specific user.
this is my web.config code:
<add name="MySqlMembershipProvider" connectionStringName="SQL2005DB380ConnectionString" applicationName="MyAppName" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Encrypted" enablePasswordReset="true" minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="1"
passwordAttemptWindow="10" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider, System.Web, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a"/>
How can I get old password and reset new password.
how to implement the authentication and membership for a hobby project I'm working on. Tought I'd ask for opinions here. I started using the asp.net membership/authentication/profile providers. First off I want user's to "activate" their accounts, so upon registration I figured I'll set "IsApproved" to false, generate and email an activation code which I store in a user profile. User's won't have usernames, just log in by email address. While it's easy to pass an email address as username, I'm worried about user's having to change their email addresses (used for logging in) later.
View 3 RepliesI am using Membership provider.. I integrated the aspnet member tables into my database.
I need the user to enter password on a data entry form and validate it against the membership tables.
How can I do this. This is the set up. I have few fields and user enters those fields and also enters the password, and submits the form. It is kind of like signature... i am looking for something like..
If txtPassword.text = membershipprovider password
{
//do this...
}
I simply want to know how to manually check if the value a user has provided for the answer to their security question matches their current answer on record. I want to use the build in support of the ASP.Net membership and membershipuser objects.
I see that via the passwordrecovery control that the actual answer can be returned. However I am currently not using this control and it would take a good bit to integrate it as it does not meet our user's requirements.
In a worst case scenario, getting the actual answer (like the passwordrecovery control does) and manually checking it in our application would be acceptable.
A best case scenario is some sort of API where I can pass in the user name and the answer to their security question that was provided and simply get an indication of whether answer was correct or not.
There seems to be something wrong with the create user wizard?I am using hashed password storage. When I change it to clear storage I see the user's password is being stored as something completly different than what they typed in.Example: changeme1 now equates to something like: 4W*KQQ4%=SIf I use 4W*KQQ4%=S as the password to login with it works but changeme1 does not.When I use the reset password wizard it updates the password just fine and it works when I login next.Any clues what could be causing this?

View 8 RepliesI had been trying to solve this but there is a hidden key i wish someone point me to.
I had a simple membership database with users in first the Membership Provider configured for clear password to retrieve the original password .
Now a new requirement say that the password must be hashed and reset .
I configure the Membership password to hash , and Implemented the Reset Password Module.
My problem is as follow.
If the user is new registered user with the new configuration the password and the security answer is hashed.
also when I go and reset the password it continue to be hashed.
Now I thought that with new configuration if any previous user with clear text configuration , If he use the password Reset module , because my configuration now is hashed , I expected that the new password and security answer will be hashed . what happen is old user continue in clear text even if the configuration is hashed. so If I had new users everything is fine.
old users Membership Provider somehow know they had been stored in clear text and it keep change password and security answer in clear text . If I delete this user and create it , Membership Provider understand that everything will be hashed. I need to know how it know this , I need to migrate users not to delete and recreate users .
Also if there are no solution for that , I wish Microsoft Consider it in future cause it is a real user scenario, that can happen imagine a business system that related to membership user Id , deleting users and recreate them is not a solution .
I have developed simple user registeration application form in that after press submit button i am sending mail to user for welcome template as well as i am also get on mail for user details like name email id, and ip address.my problem is the user can receive the mail form my site but i am receive the any user details mail it doesnot shows any exception what is the problem i donno please
View 4 RepliesHow can I use Membership.GeneratePassword to return a password that ONLY contains alpha or numeric characters? The default method will only guarantee a minimum and not a maximum number of non alphanumeric passwords.
View 2 RepliesAm using ASP.NET membership authentication in a small website and i just noticed some thing funny during testing. Am trying to enable user to change their login password any time they wish, i dragged a change password control to the form, i changed the password for my test account, but now all passwords are still working.
I can login with the old password as well as the new password with this particular test account. If i try with any other random characters as the new password, i cant successfully login (which OK). But if type the old password, am able to login, if i type the new password, am still able to login, am finding this very strange.
