C# - Lock User Using Forms Authentication?
Mar 13, 2011
Coding Platform: ASP.NET 4.0 Webforms with C#
I have two roles admin and member. In my application, admin can manipulate most of the member data. I know that in forms authentication a user can be unlocked like,
MembershipUser user = Membership.GetUser(clickeduserName);
user.UnlockUser();
Membership.UpdateUser(user);
My questions are,
How to lock a user in forms authentication? Why is MembershipUser.IsLockedOut Property set as ReadOnly? Is it not the right way to LockOut people as an administrator?

I have a website developed using asp.net/C#. I would like to lock an user account on 5 consecutive login failures within a time period of 30 minutes. I do not want to do this on database side. And I know this is cannot be done by session variables. I also do not want to use cookies for this, as a user can easily disable cookies

What is the best way to use System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement to lock an Active Directory user object? I'm able to determine if an account is locked using..
UserPrincipal principal = new UserPrincipal(context);
bool locked = principal.IsAccountLockedOut();
How do I lock the account? Is there an alternative to doing something like this...
UserPrincipal principal = new UserPrincipal(context);
DirectoryEntry entry = (DirectoryEntry)principal.GetUnderlyingObject();
int val = (int)entry.Properties["userAccountControl"].Value;[code]....

In login.aspx I have used login control to enter user name and password, the problem is: even my caps lock is off when I enter user name it prints in capital letters but size is small size (when I copy and paste in note pad or msword it paste in small letters not in capital letters), when I turn on my caps lock on and type - it prints in bigger size as if I am typing in capital letters.
ex: 1. temp is my user name if my caps lock is off it shows like this TEMP (but size in smaller than 2nd one)
2. if my caps lock is on is shows like this as if I am typing capital letters TEMP
what do you think the problem is how can I fix it

I'm about to convert an existing webforms application to MVC. This existing system lean too much on JavaScript in my opinion, so I'm throwing around some ideas for a "lock screen" functionality. The user can be busy editing a form....any form, there are tons. "Lock Screen" essentially logs the user off, but when logging in again, they are taken back to the form they have been busy with and the values entered before are loaded. I also will have to provide a way to lock the screen after a certain time of inactivity.

I'm building a site in which users can purchase MP3 files which they can download from their user login area.
In previous applications I've developed, I would allow admin to upload the file and it would be stored under "/Uploads/MP3s/filename.mp3". However, I need to make this secure so that users cannot gain access to these files until they have purchased them.

I want to use forms authentication on my ASP.NET MVC site. All I need is a place for users to login, a page to add a user, and a page to edit a user. I'm using all the default ASP.NET forms authentication tables for SQL Server (aspnet_Profile, aspnet_Roles, aspnet_Users, etc.). The only difference is that I've added an Employees table to my database, which contains a FK to aspnet_Users to create a one-to-one relationship. The Employees table contains columns for FirstName, LastName, StartDate, etc. It's a way for me to keep additional information for the users.
I'm having trouble finding any sort of tutorial that would help me build a basic page in MVC, everything I find is for WebForms. For my page to add a user, I'd like there to be fields for the Employees table. I don't know if I can modify the CreateUserWizard to add those fields, or if I'd be better off just creating my own custom page.

Article : Encrypt and Decrypt Username or Password stored in database
The whole thing works very well but my issue is, after entering and encrypted password how does the user then log into the database?
When a user types in his password, the typed in password will not match the ecnrypted value in the database.
So how do I decrypt what is in the database and compare with what the user typed in and then validate the user.

I have an ASP.NET application where users login using forms authentication. I have 3 roles and some users. My App is not some thing like anyone can Register and access pages. Only Admin can create users & then send them their username and temp password through email. Then User can change his security question, Password and access pages. I'm trying to build this architecture. I'm using SqlServerMembershipProvider I have created Roles and some test users using ASP.NET Configuration tool. How can I implement the same thing programatically? Like Admin can create user and set his Role. User should be able to Change his Security question & change his password after Admin sets his account with some password likeP@ssw0rd. Is there any article where I can read and learn. I'm dealing with Security for the first time

i'm using forms based authentication within my aspnet (c#) website. At the log in page i'm capturing username, password and email. the email addressed is stored within the membership table. now on a new page, i'd just like to display the users' email address so they update it as well as another boolean field. i've tried using a gridview but i can't figure out how to modify the query so it only reveals the current logged in user.

I am using forms authentication and have an issue with a particular browser using the remember me feature. For various reasons I want to support the opera browser that works with the nintendo dsi. I can use forms authentication with that browser just fine but when I use the remember me (cookie) feature I can get through the login but then calls to User.Identity.IsAuthenticated return false. If I do not check remember me it works fine. Initially I thought the browser didn't support cookies but it does. At least I can go to m.gmail.com and check their version of remember me and it works. I can exit the browser and come back in and m.gmail.com remembers me. Also I don't have problems with remember me on any other browser I have tried.
Is anyone aware of some specific browser issue that doesn't work with asp.net forms authentication? I am using asp.net mvc but I doubt that matters.

I am a beginner of asp.net..I currently have a login page with forgot password link button on the bottom of the screen. I am also using forms authentication to prevent an unauthorized user from accessing the other pages. The authentication seems to be working fine except for one thing. It prevents the user from accessing the password recovery page once the user click on the link button. How do I allow all users access to the login/password pages and also prevent them from viewing the other pages if they are not authenticated?The code below is to prevent from other anonymous view other pages without access. But i got no idea on how to allow them to access password recovery page...
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="/Presentation/Display/Login.aspx" name=".ASPNETAUTH" protection="All" path="/" timeout="120" cookieless="UseDeviceProfile" slidingExpiration="true"/>
</authentication>
<!-- This section denies access to all files in this application except for those that you have not explicitly specified by using another setting. -->
<authorization>
<deny users="?"/>

On the first hit, and only the first hit, to my page having [ALLOW users="*"] in the web.config, the user is redirected to the LoginUrl, but on all subsequent visits to the page, the user IS allowed access. The user shoud ALWAYS be allowed access to this page. I suspect it is a configuration problem, so here are snippets of my web.config...

I simply want to display a message on the login page when the user is automatically redirected there after requesting a page that they were logged in for but their session has now expired. So essentially if the user was working but stepped away for a lunch break without logging out I want the system to tell them why they were sent back to the login page.
Something like "You have been idle for too long so you must log back in".
This has to be easy I am just running into a wall here. I thought about getting the original ticket and reading the expiration date but I'm a little lost.

I've written a small ASP.NET 3.5 application to allow users to update selected account attributes on their own. Everything works fine when I use Basic Authentication, but because the dialog that is presented is less than ideal, I'd like to use forms authentication to give the users more instruction on how to log in. My problem is that in order for the user to update their account information, I have to have the application impersonate them for the update actions. I've scoured the internet trying to find a solution to my issue, but nothing fits or works. I have tried setting the web.config:

I also tried using the LogonUser method to create a user token and backend the authentication that way, and it doesn't work either.

I am having a problem with security in a web application I am building using Visual Web Developer 2008. I am using Forms Authentication:
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms name=".MYAUTH" timeout="20" enableCrossAppRedirects="true" />
</authentication>
And a SQL Server database with ASP.NET Membership and Roles. I am using the LoginView control with the AnonymousTemplate and LoggedInTemplate to manage the user's interaction with logging in and out. The problem I am having is that I am authenticating the user against the database:
If Membership.ValidateUser(_userName, _txtLoginPass.Text)
Then returns True and:
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(_userName, False)
sets the cookie correctly:
FormsAuthentication.Decrypt(FormsAuthentication.GetAuthCookie(_userName, False).Values(0))
{System.Web.Security.FormsAuthenticationTicket} CookiePath: "/"
Expiration: #1/21/2010 1:42:27 PM#
Expired: False
IsPersistent: False
IssueDate: #1/21/2010 1:22:27 PM#
Name: "jaymo "
UserData: ""
Version: 2
but when I check
HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated it always returns False.
If done this before and it worked fine. I cannot find any mistake I might have made or where something might have changed between ASP.NET 2.0 and 3.5.

i want is to copy huge data from many tables to a master table in my database.
the copying process should executed once at the time from asp.net.
so if a user "A" start copying process, user "B" will not have the permission to copy untill the old process (started from user "A") complete.
what i am thinking to do is if its possible to lock "Copying Function" from using more than once at the time.
