Authentication For A Web Service Options?
Sep 15, 2010
I am new to Web services and .NET. I have to authenticate a web service that is being accessed using http post. I tried putting a custom soap header and sending it to the service and checking the header in service but the header object is always null in the service.also if i put the user and password options in http headers how can i validate them on the server ? Client code:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
HttpWebRequest request;
[code]...

I have the usual requirement of implementing Authentication and Authorization. I used to implement it using custom code where I have Users, Roles, Role_Pages, User_Pages, and User_Roles. So this way we can give a certain user roles (that group multiple pages) and/or directly define access to certain pages. All that with the ability to specify fine grained permissions like the ability to Add/Edit/Delete records in those pages.
My question: How easy is it to implement this using Forms Authentication and what advantage does that give over implementing a custom solution. I am also concerned with knowing if there would be any advantage when it comes to securing from session hijacking and against spoofing where an attacker could replay requests and impersonate legit users. Would Forms Authentication have any advantage there, or is it only SSL that can secure against that (which makes both approaches equal in that regard).

I am having a strange authentication issue moving sites from IIS 6 to 7. I am still very new to IIS 7 and have not been able to find a reason for this. The site is running with form authentication and windows authentication enabled and anonymous disabled just as it was in IIS 6. I did not find any useful posts here or on the IIS site, so I am hoping someone might know the answer to this.

I have multiple PDFs coming from a report generator and I want to merge them to a single document. The merging process must run in a web site or WCF web service environment (Framework 4.0, IIS 7.5). Is there a component, open source or commercial, to accomplish this?In my process I get the PDFs as streams. If I have the choice, I would prefer a merging method, working directly on these streams - without file representations.

I am writing two ASP.NET apps. One is a web service that provides xml data and the other is a web client that will use the service to display and manipulate data. I would like for the web service to do the membership authentication and authorization. Is there any way to simply point the login controls in my client application to the web service instead of to a database. I assume I would have to provide the necesarry methods in my web service interface, which would then use the membership provider database I created and pass the results back through to the client.
Is this possible? I have seen many articles on security provisioin from a web service but none has really been what I am looking for. I was hoping that, since my service and my client are both written in ASP.NET, there might be some built functionality that would benefit me.

I am invoking a WCF web service (.NET 4.0) via jQuery $.ajax() from an ASP.NET page. How can I secure the WCF service such that only authenticated ASP.NET users can invoke the service's methods? Do I need to imperatively check the forms authentication cookie manually in each service method, or is there a more declarative approach?

I have a webservice that's behind form's authentication. The site that hosts the service also serves as a site that requires a user to log in via the login page.I have a second site that needs to be able to access the service that the first site hosts. However, when attempting to access the service, it fails because the service requires that the user is logged in.

I have created a WCF service that will serve as authentication service for Silverlight client.The problem is that when I make a call to FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie in the Login method below, I get a null reference exception.

I want to create a web service that can authenticate user from my application. I will be sending user name and password from my app to the web service and that will deny or accept the user. I want to use form authentication using sql server. that this web service can be used by other team in my office so that they can just call the web service and the user will be authenticated.
Also, is it possible to use both form and windows authentication in my web service and authenticate the user both ways.

I am using .NET roles and membership model to manage user accounts in my system back-end.
If the request is come from within my web-app, I can authenticate through form.
But if the user is requesting from else where, maybe their own apps, how to I do authentication?
attach username and password (GET/POST) and then secure the line by SSL? is that what I should do?

By default web service is enable for windows authentication. But if we want to expose our service to public domain, then I guess we have to use some specific credential for web service authentication. Can anyone tell me how to set those credential at service side and validate it for client and how the client will send those credentials?

I have a web page that calls a WCF service that makes a sql database call using Integrated Security. I get an error saying, "Login failed for user 'CorpDomainServerName01$'". I want it so that it all layers will execute under the user's AD credetials (working in an intranet), ie: "CorpDomainAlbert". On the server (Win 2008/IIS 7), I have Windows Authentication turned on and everything else off (including Anonymous) under Authentication for both the web client and the WCF service. Here's my client web.config:
<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0"/>
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true"/>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<netTcpBinding>
<binding name="NetTcpBinding_IMyService" closeTimeout="00:01:00" openTimeout="00:01:00" receiveTimeout="00:10:00" sendTimeout="00:01:00" transactionFlow="false" transferMode="Buffered" transactionProtocol="OleTransactions" hostNameComparisonMode="StrongWildcard" listenBacklog="10" maxBufferPoolSize="524288" maxBufferSize="65536" maxConnections="10" maxReceivedMessageSize="65536">

I have a WCF service hosted on an external server (other domain) and I'm trying to consume it from a command line application. I receive the following error:
The request for security token could not be satisfied because authentication failed.
The service is configured inside a web.config file:
<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<wsHttpBinding>
<binding name="wsHttpBinding_IRun">
[Code]....
On the client side, I create a custom binding to connect to the service. Here is the security configuration:
standardBinding.Security.Mode = SecurityMode.None;
standardBinding.Security.Transport.ClientCredentialType = HttpClientCredentialType.None;
standardBinding.Security.Transport.ProxyCredentialType = HttpProxyCredentialType.None;
standardBinding.Security.Transport.Realm = "";
standardBinding.Security.Message.ClientCredentialType = MessageCredentialType.None;
standardBinding.Security.Message.NegotiateServiceCredential = false;
standardBinding.Security.Message.EstablishSecurityContext = false;
standardBinding.Security.Message.AlgorithmSuite = SecurityAlgorithmSuite.Default;
I'm not using any security mechanism for authentification but still, the service seems to be expecting one. When working on different domains, is it mandatory to use a basic authentification?
EDIT: I wasn't referencing any binding configuration at my endpoint. Once the reference was set, I received another message error:
{"The message with Action 'http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/02/trust/RST/Issue' cannot be processed at the receiver, due to a ContractFilter mismatch at the EndpointDispatcher. This may be because of either a contract mismatch (mismatched Actions between sender and receiver) or a binding/security mismatch between the sender and the receiver. Check that sender and receiver have the same contract and the same binding (including security requirements, e.g. Message, Transport, None)."}
The issue was caused by my client's binding. While I was creating my custom binding using the standard 'WSHttpBinding', the 'SecurityMode' property was set to 'Message' instead of 'None'. Now the code looks like the following and the service finally works:
WSHttpBinding standardBinding = new WSHttpBinding(SecurityMode.None, false);
CustomBinding myCustomBinding = new CustomBinding(standardBinding);

I have a web service within my application (app A) writing to an oracle database (database resides on a different server). when i call the web service from another application (app B), it fails to write to the database. when the web service is called from app A, it successfully writes to the database.
I guess this issue has to do with authentication/impersonation of ASP.NET. both applications (A & B ) are subsites within the same website in IIS and both uses windows authentication (intranet applications). I dont have access to the server and IIS.
