Let's say that you have 2 or N domains pointing on the same ip address, your server (in my case Windows Server with IIS) and you want to make custom site for every domain name so you have to detect which domain is user currently using.
There should be two "custom sites". One is Administration aplication site with just one domain name pointing on it, and the other is aplication that handles multiple domain names and based on it displayes different sites.
Good example is shoutem network. At [URL] is administration page and aplication instances are [URL]and [URL], separate aplication that handles different domain names.
If I have a generic public asp.net website, I want to know who is visting my website (I know how to get that), but more importantly, I want to know what company the user is from (is this a microsoft employee viewing my website, or a Coca Cola employee viewing my site or is this person using a home computer to view my site). How can I determine the computers domain name? Hope this is making sense. Update: At most companies, I have seen the company name included as the "Full Computer Name" or the Domain value in "Computer name, domain and workgroup settings". Thats what I am looking to access.
I have a message board pulling user-submitted posts stored in SQL server. When users submit their post, they may enter something like "www.asp.net" in plain text, but I want it to show up as a hyperlink on the board. How can I accomplish that? I'd also like to identify @replies and show them in a different color, and I believe one method should be able to do both.
User 1 logs in the domain. User 1 changes some data without saving it. User 2 logs in the domain in a separate tab. User 1 switches back to his tab and saves the data. User 1 actually saved the data into User 2!!
This is caused by the following mechanism:
Different tabs in the same browser seems to share the same session id. We are storing user auth in cookie and the cookie is shared between tabs (same domain)
Therefore, when User 1 request to save, it is recognized as User 2 since the cookie has been updated to User 2.
So I'm wondering if there's any other methods to prevent this from happening, other than:
1. Use cookieless session so the session is embedded in uri.
2. Always include a hidden field in page to indicate which user owns the page.
I'm working on a CMS that can run either with or without https enabled on the webserver. I'd like to be able to detect whether https is enabled or not, so that I can act accordingly (for example, display some https-related options to the administrator, and redirect to https for administrator logins).
I'm not looking for Request.IsSecureConnection because that only tells me if the current request is via https. I want something that will tell me whether the current bindings for the site in IIS include a binding for https at the same domain as the current request is on. So, for example, even if the current request is for [URL] and thus not secure, I want to know whether [URL] would work so I can (for example) redirect the user to it if they log in as administrator.
I've had no luck looking for anything in System.Web.Configuration that will tell me about the bindings of the current site, though.
I notice that some sites are coping the content of one of my client's sites using automated agents. I want to detect their requests and show them a captcha code to prevent them from coping the site content. Is there anyway to detect them?
For some reason, even though in the sitemap, the url is defined as "www.website.com/index.aspx" or "home.aspx", the currentNode.URL always has the domain attached to the URL, creating bad urls like "www.domain.com/www.website.com/index.aspx"
I've tried to figure out where www.domain.com was coming from by search my project and inside of my web.config file, but I can't seem to find it.
If i get my own Domain Name and then create a site using VWD will i then be able to host my website on my own domain name i have made? sounds like a silly question i know; i take it i would have to publish the site through VWD before i would be able ot do this? Just dont get how i can create a site in VWD then attach it to my own domain name space to have my own site.
I have a domain with name of http://MainDomain.com I want to create a site in this site and this site contains 14 sub domains there. I need a structure of sitemap which contains all sub domains. The list of sub domains is given below. Any suggestion is welcome...
Currently in my application using LDAP to authenticate user to a specific domain & then i check if the user exist in my site database.
Now i need to also allow users who do not belong to this specific LDAP domain to access my site ..How can i make it possible withoput affecting the exisiting users?
My problem is that the realm is dependent on which domain the user accessed the website on so what I did is that I set it in an global action filter like this
var module = context.HttpContext.ApplicationInstance.Modules["WSFederationAuthenticationModule"] as WSFederationAuthenticationModule; module.Realm = "http://" + siteInfo.DomainName;
My question is. When I set the realm like this, is it set per user instance or application instance.
Scenario.
User A loads the page and the realm get set to domain.a.com.
User B is already logged in on domain.b.com and presses login.
Since user A loaded the page before User B pressed login, user A will hit the STS with the wrong realm set.
What will happen here?
If this is not the way to set the realm per user instance, is there another way to do it?
a asp.net site located at a hosting center(UK)and i want users from our office to login to that site using their active directory account.is this possible to do over the network ? or i need the site on the same domain as the active directory server?
So my website works great on my local computer. It also works fine when I use the Copy Web Site feature in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express. But I do not want all of my files and the default.aspx to be sitting at the root of my domain name. I want it to be in a subfolder.
So again, it works fine when it's sitting at www.domainname.com
But when I use my FTP program to move the files to:
www.domainname.com/subfolder/
I get an error when I try to visit the site. It's just a general runtime error and does not display the specific error message. It obviously must have something to do with when I MOVE the files/folders from the root of the domain to the subfolder?
I have created a website that has one aspx page. I am using visual studio 3.5. I have created a virtual directory on my local pc and tested the app and it wis working. Now I need to delploy it to the domain via ftp> Here is the website folders:
1. App_Code - contain my classes 2. App_Data - contain the sql express database ... myDb.mdf 3. Myaspx page - a single page 4. Web.config
when I run it , it woks, but when I want to deploy it , the site does not work. Here what I am doing .I am publishing the site to a local folder, then upload the complete folder to the right domain name. Yet, get an error
"Error 1 The process cannot access the file 'B:�0 2011 demoMarchObjectDataSource_CRUD_CSApp_DataRGN.mdf' because it is being used by another process"
How can I fix this error. I thought when I publish the site, the database would also be included in the site folders, but I may be wrong.
After publishing the web application on the web host there si following error.It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.
Hoping there's been a "best practices" way to accomplish this so far. Basically, I'm building an ASP.NET MVC 3 site that I would like to host from a central database and server. I'd like for [domain1].com and [domain2].com to point back to this one server. Ideally, I'd like this server to see a request from domain 1, and serve content relevant to domain 1 (which is essentially a category of topical information -- the rest of the structure would be the same). I'd like folks not to get redirected away from that domain if possible.I'm thinking I should map each domain to a specific static IP, have all connections through those IPs connect to the central site, and return relevant data that way.What experiences have folks had doing this with the .NET stack, and are there any "best practices" to consider in this case?This might not be as clear as it could be; I'll aim to revise as I get questions.
I have a requirement that whenever a user logs onto a website using forms based authentication [FBA] that the site checks whether they have a related domain NT user record. There will be a matching lookup table between the ASPNETDB membership database and related domain accounts for users.Whenever an FBA user logs in and a related domain account is located then the member should be redirected to an alternative site / URL which is Windows NT authenticated rather than FBA. Before transferring them I would like to be able to pre authenticate them on the windows domain rather than an additional NT Login dialog box coming up and asking them to enter the related NT credentials.Is it possible to programatically preauthenticate using NT credentials before redirecting a user to an NT authenticated site?Note: This isn't technically a single sign on style scenario. The FBA / NT authenticated sites are not related other than the relationship between the original FBA credentials and the NT credentials lookup.
I have a DC (Win 2K3,IIS 6.0..) and put my site there. I have a local computer (win XP2) with computer name PC1 is already joined to the DC. in PC1 I login with account (user: abc, passs: 1234567) was created on the DC to log on to domain. After successful login into the domain, andand type in my web address, so I have to write code in my web site to understand how abc account login to the domain will always login to the my site must be signed in .not logged in login module that in my site.
I have a DC (Win 2K3) and put my site there. I have a local machine (win XP) with PC1 name is already connected to the DC.

After successful login khj me on my website, so I have to write code in my web site to understand how abc account login to the domain will always log into the site must be signed in toi.khong Login Module.
My feeling says it's not posible but anyway I am curious if there is at least a workaround for accomplish this.Basically I am working at my client site and my machine is not connected to the domain.What I want to do is running a web application locally under a domain account, and using the webdev server.The webapp uses the default authentication, windows authentication that is.I tried using impersonation with domainuser & password but I got the following error Could not create Windows user token from the credentials specified in the config file. Error from the operating system 'Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.I have to mention that the username and the password are correct.
We have a ASP.NET site that partially depends on forms authentication for login credentials, however the implementation of IPrincipal is completely custom.
But, when running the site on a particular server (which is somewhat semi-hardened when it comes to security), the app crashes when invoking IPrincipal.IsInRole() with the following messsage:
System.SystemException: The trust relationship between the primary domain and the trusted domain failed.
This indicates a communication error between the web-server and the DC, however since our application doesn't at all utilizes Windows authentication, I don't see why it needs to communicate with the DC.
This is my implementation:
[code]...
EDIT:
I was finally enable to reproduce this error on my dev-machine (i revoked my machine from the DC yesterday, but didn't reproduce it until today)
HttpContext.User is actually a WindowsPrincipal by default it seems, and the error in my code was that I only replace it with CustomPrincipal upon login. Hence, unathenticated users still get the WindowsPrincipal which then fails horribly if you have trust issues on your AD.
I tried changing the default principal by invoking this on appstart
Im returning the username from sharepoint site as a string. This is done successfully with the below code but I also get the domain with it. How can I only return the username and not the domain either through sharepoint or programmatically removing it? domain/username
