C# - Query Data From A Password Protected Https Website?

Apr 14, 2010

I'd like my application to query a csv file from a secure website. Currently I have the user login to the site, manually query the csv, and have my application load the file locally. I'd like to automate this by having the user enter his login information, authenticating him on the website, and querying the data. The application is written in C# .NET. The url of the site is: https://www2.emidas.com/default.asp.

I've tested the following code already and am able to access the file once the user has already authenticated himself and created a manual query.

System.Net.WebClient Client = new WebClient();
Stream strm = Client.OpenRead("https://www3.emidas.com/users/<username>/file.csv");

Here is the request sent to the site for authentication. I've angle bracketed the real userid and password.

POST /pwdVal.asp HTTP/1.1
Accept: image/jpeg, application/x-ms-application, image/gif, application/xaml+xml, image/pjpeg, application/x-ms-xbap, application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint, application/msword, application/x-shockwave-flash, */*

Can't Upload To Password Protected Directory?

Dec 16, 2010

I'm running IIS 6 with ASP.NET 2.0.I enabled windows authentication for a folder in a website and gave permissions to a user. When I navigate to the page, the passowrd prompt pops up as expected and when entered correctly, the page loads. The page contains a file upload control. When I try to upload a file, the password prompt keeps popping up. ultimately it ends up as a 401 error. The user account does have write permissions to the floder, so I'm not understanding why I can get to the page with the credentials, but can't upload anything to that folder.

Setup Wcf Service For Http And Https And Also Add Username / Password To Its Access?

Oct 25, 2010

I am kinda new to WCF and the setting up of service and have 2 questions. My first question I have a service that will be accessed via https on a web server. However locally on my local IIS7, it will be accessed via http as https is not available. How can I set up a service to be accessed by both?

My second question is regarding how I can set up a service that requires a username and password to be accessed. The service that I have in place I dont want methods within it to be accessed unless the calling application has the rights to do so?

Here is an example of the relevant area of my web.config file.

<system.serviceModel>
<bindings>
<webHttpBinding>
<!-- standard AJAX binding that supports SSL -->
<binding name="TransportSecurity">
<security mode="Transport" />

[Code].....

In this config, the service is set up for http only and not username/password applied to it.

Set Up HTTPS / SSL Certificate For Our Website On Another Server

Mar 30, 2011

There are 2 web-servers involved:

Webserver1 has been in the organization a few years and is hosting/running multiple websites with https encryption (app1.ourcompany.com, app2.ourcompany.com, etc). It has a valid, signed certificate.

Webserver2 is a new server, for which I am responsible. I am tasked with setting up https and getting the certificate, etc. It has a web app running on it, but it does not have a domain name (only has an IP address)...which as I recently learned, is a requirement for a signed certificate.

What I'd like to know is this -- is it possible to set up a site on Webserver1 that points to the site I'm hosting on Webserver2 (ie SiteOnWebserver2.ourcompany.com) which also utilizes the Webserver1's signed/verified certificate?

Security :: How To Get X.509 Certification From Https Website

Aug 13, 2010

What I want to do is like the web browser. When you visit a https web site, the browser will download and install the X.509 Certification automatically.

I have a application which will be installed in PC, and the application will post to a https website. So if the certification is expired, the App should download a new one.

So, how can I get the certification? A stream is always good, I can make it to certification.

How To Make A Website Secured With HTTPS

Feb 5, 2010

i have to build a small webapp for a company to maintain their business data... Only those within the company will be using it, but we are planning to host it in public domain, so that the employees can connect to app from various locations. (Till now I have built web apps that are hosted internally only)

I'm wondering whether I need to use a secured connection (https) or just the forms authentication is enough.

What should I do to prepare my website for https. (Do I need to alter the code / Config) Is SSL and https one and the same... Do I need to apply with someone to get some license or something. Do I need to make all my pages secured or only the login page...

Web Forms :: How To Do HTTPS Redirect In Website

May 7, 2015

I purchased a certificate from my hosting provider from my web site. There was some confusion as to whether I needed to use IIS to install it or if they would. After a few days and several phone calls they said they had it installed and configured, but when I tried to set up rewrite rules in web.config the site would not load. When I point my browser to https:mydomain it would load, but there was not green lock in the address bar and 'HTTPS' was not green. I contacted them again and after explaining the situation and being put on hold for 45 minutes I hung up. This morning the the site is working and HTTPS appears to be configured correctly.

I could find no changes to web.config on redirection, so how is it being redirected to HTTPS? I'm concerned that when I post changes to the site I could wipe out what ever they did to get it to work with HTTPS. Could changes been made 'above' my site on the server that I can't affect? Should I be concerned?
