Windows Authentication Of Intranet Website And Reappearing Windows Login Box
Mar 24, 2011
I'm trying to enable automatic Window authentication working on our ASP.NET Intranet. I've changed the Authentication on our IIS 7.5 server from Anonymous to Windows Authentication Enabled only, and changed the Web.config file for the website to:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?" />
</authorization>
The Windows login box appears when accessing the website via IE 8, I enter valid credentials, but the login window keeps reappearing as if it does not accept my credentials. By repeatedly cancelling the login box it disappears, and my login name can be viewed on the website. Is there any possible reason for the login box to keep popping up even though valid credentials are being entered? I've restarted the servers / cleared browser cache etc. Also, ideally I would like the user to enter the login details once in the login box and not be required to reenter login details whenever he reopens the browser.

I have been trying to avoid the windows login userid and password window when I use the Windows Authentication mode for a web site. I need to capture the the windows logon user name without prompting for the user id and password and display that on the web site. I had tried almost everything... changed authentication,security setups on IE and IIS etc... still not being able to avoid the window...

We are having an issue with the windows authentication and IIS restart for asp.net application Our environment is an intranet site (an asp.net application ) that uses windows authentication, uses integrated security application pool, physical path credentials are set for a service account, who is admin for sql server, IIS etc. web.config - Connection string has Integrated Security = true, authentication = Windows, and authorization - deny *, allow = security group. Anytime we start - stop service (or restart) (IIS); and hit the website thru some other machine IE, it fails to show the website (401.2), and any subsequent hit to the website doesn't go thru.
However when we start the service, and hit the website on server's (where website is deployed) browser first time then everything works fine for subsequent hits from anywhere as long as authenticated on corp net and member of security group configured in web.config. This behavior however goes away if we uncheck the configuration "Enable Kernel-mode Authentication" on the asp.net application. ( but then Firefox browser stops working with this configuration!!) Why such behavior? In the documentation it states its recommended to keep it enabled. What is recommended way of publishing a website with windows authentication enabled? Any side effects of "Enable Kernel-mode Authentication" being unchecked ( other than what we found for firefox not working) Environment : IIS 7.5 windows 2008 Server R2, VS2008, SQL Server 2008, ASP.NET 2.0

We have developed a website in asp.net using windows authentication and deployed it on the intranet (IIS v6.0). Most of the times, when users try to access this website they are taken straight to the website, but occasionally some users get a prompt to enter their windows username and password. I understand that this could be caused because of several reasons like:
Cached active directory password. Recently active directory password changed. Active directory account locked out. I want to fix this issue for good because it is annoying the users.

To work with the ASP.NET 2.0 Membership and Role, we will use Forms authentication for the public Internet.
On the other hand, we use Windows authentication for Intranet applications. uestion: In a website with Windows authentication, can I still have some kind ofole management for different
groups of the Intranet users? If yes, how?

We also have sales rep that take call and use the same website to take the orders.
My boss wants me to allow the SR to only be able to take orders if they are in the network itself. When I ask why he tells me "just because".
I'm sure there's a way but I can't see it at the moment. How do I go by doing that? Also keep in mind that if the SR is outside the intranet, he can't be allowed to enter his active directory login/password (so the login window must not even show).

Do any of you guys have experience using Active Directory and the Intranet Zone to silent authentication with a local web site? I've done it in the past with 1.1 and 2.0 .NET, but this 3.5 site I have written doesn't seem to be working for some reason.In the past, how I have done it is:
In web.config, set:
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
In IIS 6, under directory security, check Integrated Windows authentication and Digets authentication for Windows domain servers, and set the realm to my domain, and uncheck Enable Anonymous access.The I add the Host Header for the site to the corporate Intranet Zone in Internet Explorer under trusted sites using Active Directory.And that's basically it. I've done it on plenty of intranet sites before, but with this 3.5 application I am still being propped to login. Anybody see any steps I missed?

I've a project using windows authentication and it will be used in intranet. The client itself already have a web application in their intranet and they built it with Java (they used windows authentication too). The problem occur when they want my web application only appear within their application content section.
What should I do? I did think about using iframe but some people said it's evil. And if I'm going to use iframe, is it save? My web application will use a few pop up window/modal window and ajax.

i m trying to set up an Intranet site with Windows Authentication. I have configured the web.config as shown below.
<authentication mode="Windows">
<roleManager enabled="true" />
I wanted to do authorization by roles so
<authorization>
<deny users ="?"/>
<allow roles="D820MySite_Developers, D820MySite_Admins"/>
</authorization>
I'm in the D820MySite_Developers group. When I attempt to login, it wants my password. I thought that with Windows Authentication it should not prompt for the password. If is use <allow user="*"/> it does not.
1. Is this the correct behavior?
2. My aspnetdb does not appear in the App_Data folder. Should it and is this causing the problem. If it should be there, how do I get it there?
3. I was under the impression that by using Windows Authentication, I can prevent users from accessing pages by folder. Is this provided by IIS or is this provided by Windows (using Windows Explorer)?

I am using Visual web Developer 2010 Express.
I want to create a small intranet web site with a login page that will authenticate against groiups of users in Active Directory. So for example if someone in Group A logs in they can get to web page X and if someone from Group B logs on they can get to web page Y. Is it possible to do this with the login controls without writing code? I thought it would be a fairly standard thing to do.

I have a .NET 3.5 application running under IIS 7 on Windows 2003 server and cannot get integrated windows authentication working properly as I continue to get prompted for a login. I have set Windows Authentication to enabled in IIS with all other security types
disabled and my application web.config file authentication/authorization is set up as:
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true" targetFramework="3.5" />
<authenticationmode="Windows"/>
<authorization>
<deny users = "?" />
</authorization>
</system.web>
With this setup, I'm expecting behind the scene verification of the Windows user to allow access and deny anonymous users. However, what I'm getting is a Windows login pop-up when I try to access the site. I have been troubleshooting this issue for a few days now and cannot figure out the problem. Based on posts with similar problems, I confirmed my URL does not include any periods, double checked that my IE settings are set to Enable Integrated Windows Authentication, and also added my URL to my intranet sites, but still getting the pop-up. To troubleshoot it further, I enabled Anonymous Authentication in IIS and modified my web.config file to which lets me right in and then added Response.Write(System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentifity.getcurrent().user.name.toString()) to try to see what user is being used in the authentication. The result I'm getting is IIS APPPOOLmyapp which is obviously the IIS application pool for my application.
I'm still using only windows authentication but don't get the pop-up and the windows authentication is performed against the actual Windows user. Just noticed that when the login fails and the Windows login prompt displays again, it is showing the username that attempted to login as "SERVERNAME""USERNAME" which led me to believe it was trying to validate the user against the server vs. the domain. To confirm this, I created a local user account directly on the app server with the same username and password as the network domain user and tried to login again. The result was that I received the login prompt again but when I entered the username and password this time, I was able to successfully login. The network user and app server are on the same domain so really not sure why IIS authentication is pointing to the local app server accounts and not to the domain accounts. I realize this is an IIS question at this point so posting on forums.iis.net as well but anyone may have since have been troubleshooting this for days.

And also I have enabled Anonymous Authentication enabled to avoid the Login dialog of IIS in the end-user IE. Now I am getting HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name as Empty.

My overall goal is just to get the logged on users information for an Intranet site I'm developing without them providing their login (since they are already logged into their computer). So far I just get 401.1 errors and it keeps asking for my login/password. Even though I provide my login/password, it still won't let me in.
I've Enabled Windows Authentication from IIS > Sites > Default Web Site, added this to my web.config:
<authentication mode="Windows" />
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>
</authorization>
My Application Pool is setup as Integrated / ApplicationPoolIdentity for .NET Framework 2.0.

I am working on an application that uses windows authentication. Within this application, we give the user the ability to change their password. The user can change the password just fine. However, after they change their password, that is when things get weird. Sometimes they can navigate through the application just fine. Other times, they click on a link and are immediately prompted to supply credentials. Occasionly they can click on a link but upon a second click they are prompted to supply credentials. Does the browser keep a token to the original credentials and use this when they request the next page? If this is the case, why can i continue using the site sometimes? Can I change the password and then assign that token to the request?

I have an intranet set up with IIS and it is working fine with windows integrated autehntication. However I have some permissions set and when certain users do not have access they get prompted for their login and I don't want this. I want it to go straight to the access denied page.
I read that "In integrated Windows authentication, the browser tries to use the current user's credentials from a domain logon, and if this attempt is unsuccessful, the user is prompted to enter a user name and password. "
So I understand this is supposed to happen but I was wondering if there was anyway to not have it prompt for a username and password if the first attemp is unsuccessful.

I have an silverlight application configured with windows integrated security. I would like to emulate the "Sign in as different user" functionality I would like to give the user, the option to click a button and show the windows authentication login window, so that the user can enter the "User name" and "Password" again using another domain account. (btw i found this question on another site but with no answers, I need the same thing so i copy/pasted a bit)
