Cookies - Windows Identity Foundation - How To Get New Security Token
Feb 1, 2010
I'm writing an ASP.net application that uses Windows Identity Foundation. My ASP.net application uses claims-based authentication with passive redirection to a security token service. This means that when a user accesses the application, they are automatically redirected to the Security Token Service where they receive a security token which identifies them to the application.
In ASP.net, security tokens are stored as cookies.
I want to have something the user can click on in my application that will delete the cookie and redirect them to the Security Token Service to get a new token. In short, make it easy to log out and log in as another user. I try to delete the token-containing cookie in code, but it persists somehow.
How do I remove the token so that the user can log in again and get a new token?

I have an requirement to implement single sign on solution using SAML 2. I had a look at a tirdparty toolkit in componentspace, but I would prefer some microsoft components.
the features provided in componentspace toolkit can be done using some Microsoft .NET libraries itself. identify the microsoft way to do this?. I looked at the Windows Identity Foundation SDK, but it is now supported only for .NET 3.5. My web application is built on .NET 2.0.
Is there any alternative for Windows Identity Foundation in .NET framework 2.0?

I've been trying to set a STS project in my solution following these steps on Channel 9. Right after hitting "Finish", I get an exception saying: The system cannot find the file specified. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070002). After installing, uninstalling, rebooting, and so on, I still get the error.
My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise x64, both Visual Studio 2010 and Visual Web Developer 2010 Express are installed in my machine, the WIF SDK 4, the runtime 6.1 and the Identity Training Kit from January 2011.

Our solutions requires validating users against a custom database. This also includes roles which dictates what he user can do in the system. What is the best way to implement implement security, is it to use Windows Identity Foundation or the default Membership Provider and Role Provider that comes with .net?

My website security is configured with "Windows Integrated Security" only (anonymous is disabled).
I also want to set a specific account to run the w3wp.exe process using the
Application Pool Identity to a domain account.
Running directly from the server works without any problem but from remote computers I always get the authenticaion window then the 401.1 error (after 3 attempts).
It seems that its the combination of "Windows Integrated Security" along with the "Application Pool Identity" that causes the problem. When I disable one of the two it works properly.
My server is Windows Server 2003 R2, running IIS 6.0.

I am beginner in the Windows Communication Foundation. I am reading about it. I am little bit confused with the word 'Windows'. WCF can be used for building the web services for window application as well as web application. Then what is meaning of the word 'Windows' in WCF ? Why we are calling it as a 'Windows' Communication foundation ?

I have an asp.net site. Its a mixture of web forms and MVC2.
I have this on 2 different servers which I get to via different urls.
On one server authentication works fine via all browsers (IE 8, FF 3.6, Chrome)
On the other IE 8 fails, it doesn't send back the cookie on the request to the page after authenticating.
Using Fiddler I have seen that both sites attempt to set the cookie, in the response from the login page.
Response Header I see from both servers
Set-Cookie: DemandLaunch=CCA4...E79C2D1; path=/; HttpOnly
Both sites are in the internet zone of IE.
I'm at a loose for what to check now.
I also have a page that sets a cookie via c# code and that cookie fails in IE as well.
The IE issue is not on a single computer either. I see this failure on 4 different computers Internet Explorer.
My urls which I should have included were:
beta.[site].com - works
beta_[company].[site].com - fails

I want to know if this kind of authentication is possible.
We have an Active Directory account and that account we are using to log in to windows. I have a simple system that needs authentication using the IIS log in box (i dont know what do you call this but what I know is it only comes out when Anonymous user is unchecked in the IIS configuration.) Now, I want this box to appear before my page and the user will be authenticated and be compare to the user who logged in to the windows. If the user who have been authenticated is the same as the user who logged in to the windwos then we will let him in if not he must be denied in accessing the page.
The first problem I have in my mind is how to code it in asp.net to make an authentication when he will try to access my page.
Second is, let us say we have succeeded to show the authentication box, how can I get the username from the log in box and compare it to the user who logged on in windows. Of course we can get the user id of the logged in user from the windows using User.Identity.Name but how about the username from the log in box.
Note: I will not use log in forms even using https. Just the log in provided by the IIS according to the configuration.

I have a webpage stored on a local server (Site A) which when I browse to it is given my windows account details, this site then checks within AD to get my email address. My email address is then passed to another website (Site B) and consumed. The Website A is set in IIS to Integrated Windows Auth Only, WebSite A has
<identity impersonate="false"/>
set in the web.config What I dont understand is what user is accessing AD from site A - with impersonate = false that is telling the site not impersonate the windows user, but this seems at odds with the setting in IIS.

I currently have a client with a SharePoint site that wants to incorporate an (already written) ASP.NET application within a webpart in the SharePoint site. The ASP.net application currently uses an IIS impersonation account to connect to the SQL database.
Some added functionality the client is requesting would require me to grab the user's windows login identity to use the SharePoint UserProfileWebService to query the PropertyPages for that specific user. Because the (already written) ASP.NET application uses impersonation, when I grab the WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name, I get the impersonation account and not the actual user's account.
Is there a way to keep the current setup (impersonation account on IIS to connect to SQL) and still grab the logged in user's credentials? Or would a better way about this be to change IIS to consume the Windows Identity of the logged in user and encrypt the connection string in the web.config?

I'm trying to get a ASP.NET application to use windows authentication. I have disabled anonymous auth and enabled windows auth in IIS7. On my dev box (my workstation, localhost) I can use fiddler and see proper token is passed in through the header and I'm not prompted. Everything is working fine and I'm authenticated as my domain user.
However, on a remote server on our domain, with identical settings, I continually get prompted. We need it to automatically send the domain authentication for windows auth.
Does anything in IE need to be configured for this to happen for a remote machine on the same domain?

I Need by service contract to return the xml/json result depending on the request type. function which will convert my result set (i am using linq to sql) so that i do not need to create the xml format for the result set by iterating through the table row many times.What is the suitable way to do that.
I need a kind of short cut method which will convert the table data to xml result.Had i been using asp.net mvc i would have been able to generate the xml data by overriding the the ExecuteResult method in the ActionResult and giving Conetnt-Type = "text/xml" as OP.But since i am using Wcf i don't have the controller context(as controller context is the parameter that needs to be passed to Execute Result).
My present code for converting the table data to the xml format is below.
public XDocument UsersLists(string authToken)
{
bool IsAuthenticated = Authenticate(authToken);
XDocument xDoc = new XDocument();
XElement root = new XElement("Users");
[Code]....
I need to eliminate this way of generating xml for each table records.

Here is 2 web applications: 1 is asp.net, another is J2EE base webapplication.Both them are using same AD ( e.g. DomainTest ) as authentication source.Question here:1. User log in the asp.net application ( form based log in DomainTest, not IE prompt authencation dialog ), on the left navigation ( link to J2EE web application), just click this link, SSO to J2EE application.I think should transfer identity token from asp.net to J2EE, but don't know how, and for JSP, how to modify it to use token tranferd from asp.net ?

We have developed a system to allow users to access another one of our web applications by placing a token in the db and then when they redirect passing this token in the browser to the new apop and using that as an authenication method. However I am thinking that it might be better to simply place this token in the browser cookie as then the user doesnt have to physically click a link they can simply do straight to it because the token wont be in the query string anymore....
Will it add much of an overhead doing it via cookies are there any disadvantages?

I don't know if the following is possible or not but in brief, here is what I'm trying to achieve:
1. When a user requests to view a document, they click on a link (could be other) which contains an encrypted query string containing data required to retrieve the relevant document. i.e.[URL]
2. I want to ensure that if after x minutes the user goes back to their history and select the link again or re-type the same url as above that it will not request the document and redirect them to a page letting them know that the requested document "link" is no longer valid.
I don't want to rely on cookies or sessions, so thought that maybe there would be a way to add a datetime token at the end of the existing url but this needs to be done at run-time as the url is already predefined when the link is created, so I'm not sure how can I do this?
ideally, I'd like something like this [URL] where the token would contain the date & time when the link was clicked.
Once re-requested, I would decrypt the token and validate it again the server time and if it was over the x minutes defined, it would redirect me to the "link is no longer valid" page.

I'm using the Windows Identity Foundation (WIF) Security Token Service (STS) to handle authentication for my application which is working all well and good. However I can't seem to get any long running login with the STS. From my understanding I shouldn't care about the client tokens at the application level since they can expire all they want to and it should redirect me to the STS and as long as they're still logged in on the STS it should refresh their application token. Yet it doesn't seem to want to keep them signed in.
Here's what occurs in my login.aspx on the STS
var cookie = FormsAuthentication.GetAuthCookie(userName, persistTicket);
if (persistTicket) cookie.Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(14);
Response.Cookies.Add(cookie);
var returnUrl = Request.QueryString["ReturnUrl"];
Response.Redirect(returnUrl ?? "default.aspx");
Which was taken almost directly from existing application using normal Forms Auth.
From my web.config
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="Login.aspx" protection="All" timeout="2880"
name=".STS" path="/" requireSSL="false" slidingExpiration="true"
defaultUrl="default.aspx" cookieless="UseDeviceProfile"
enableCrossAppRedirects="false" />
</authentication>
Looking at the cookie after I sign in I can see the expires time on the cookie is set for 14 days in the future and that the cookie is NOT a session cookie. When I'm required to log back into the STS I can see that my original cookie is still there. Is there some kind of time stamp functionality that the STS embeds into the cookie that is invalidating my cookie even though as far as I know it should still be valid?

I've two application ASP.NET (once is Mojo Portal). I can navigate from one to other using an URL token id.
To this way, by token, I create a new session and save the relative auth cookie.
But, sometimes, the asp web application don't keep the session and put me down. When this happen I can't login until the session cookies is not deleted.
Both the two application are behind an reverse proxy.

In my website, I am not using any authentication or authorization. I've created login page to capture the user credentials and check against database. If the user successfully authenticates, it's storing the user data in session and navigating to other pages. How thinking of implementing Forms Authentication, but my concern is how to secure the authentication token in client browser for security reasons. Does anyone have any ideas how to secure the authentication token?

The site is running on my local IIS 6.1. I Would like to add some features to pull information from our AD. My AD code works on many other projects and on my dev server. Here are my attempts at writing out the username:
Response.Write("1. " + this.Request.LogonUserIdentity.Name);
Response.Write("2. " + Request.ServerVariables["Auth_User"]);
Response.Write("3. " + WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.ToString());
The results I get are:
NT AUTHORITYIUSR
administrator
NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE
How can I get at the actual windows username like ourdomain/username

We are observing some strange behaviour in our web server logs where where the Identity of the currently logged in user seems to be getting swapped with another user. I will describe our set up before explaining further.
We are running an asp.net web site (v3.5 of the framework) on 2 Windows 2008 web servers and use forms authentication.They are load balanced using a separate server running Apache 2.2 on Linux (Cent OS 5). The load balancing simply attaches a cookie to a user and directs them to a particular server for each subsequent request.
We notice on occasion patterns in the log like this (details obfuscated)
First Log Entry
UserName - customer1@x.com
UserId - 1111
WebPage - page1
IP - ip1
Time - 2010-06-29 12:56:20.750
SessionId - h3uyz2fsdfegugjy452sdz0far.........
We are using forms authentication using the standard asp.net forms authentication framework (the standard login control and we implemented a custom membership provider).
The UserName is the Windows identity retrieved using "HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name" The UserId is the database Id set in the session. The sessionId is retrieved using "HttpContext.Current.Session.SessionID"
As you can see the same Windows identity is the same for 2 different users, under different IP addresses and with different session id's, hitting the site about the same time. We checked and the IP's were from totally different locations. The wrong windows identity seems to be getting recorded. UserId 2222 should have a different username recorded.
Since it happens very occasionally, the code is standard and has not changed substantially for some time we don't "think" it is a coding error. We presume either a problem with the load balancer or some problem in the web server. I have never heard of such problems in asp.net before.
The forms authentication entry in the web.config is
authentication mode="Forms"
forms loginUrl="LoginPage.aspx" name=".ASPXFORMSAUTH"
