I want to know the name of the ISP provider and webhosting provider name for given Domain.
is it possible to know the ISPs name and webhosting providers name through Dotnet or manulally?
Our site has got two ASP.NET membership providers. The built in one, and a custom one (SqlMembershipProvider.
I am able to log into both no problems, but I don't necessary require the ability to have both logged in at the same time.
The issue I have is as follows:
User "person_a@site.com" logs into the built in provider. They then navigate to the section of the site where we require the custom provider.
On this page, I can check if they are authenticated, and get their username. I can then get a MembershipUser object form the custom providers GetUser method. (HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name)
It is possible (and very likely) that the username "person_a@site.com" could also exist in the users for the custom provider.
But, I don't want them to be logged in here, as they haven't authenticated against the custom provider.
So, is it possible to check which proivider HttpContext.Current.User was generated from.
I have built two websites, both of them use a custom membership provider I have written myself.
One of these sites is already a long time online and runs fine. Now I have installed the other site on the same webserver in the same Web as a different application. Also have I given a seperate ApplicationPool for each solution.
If now the client logs on to one site, he looses the session on the other and vice versa. It's not possible to be loged on on both sites together. All the rest works fine.
What is the connection between the two sites. Is it necessary to change something in my membership providers?
I'm trying to use both the default Membership and Profile Providers and can not for the life of me get both to work at the same time. I'm using MS Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and when I create a new Project I get access to the Membership but not the Profile. When I create a new Website I get just the opposite i.e. access to Profile and not Membership. What do I need to do to get access to both?
View 2 RepliesThere is the following design: the back-end implemented as WCF, the public front site and two intranet sites (all three talking to the back-end). I believe that authentication on the sites is not enough (i.e. passing ClientID to WCF in each request as a parameter) and i want to protect my back-end (WCF) with authentication to perform double-check and have PrincipalPermission on the methods with roles specified.
I'm sure that identity names from both providers do not cross (public logins are digits only and the intranet will be something like 'DOMAINLogin'). The front site uses forms auth and its provider returns GenericPrincipal. The intranet sites use Windows auth and i have WindowsPrincipal attached to Page.User.
Is it possible to configure WCF to use two membership providers (custom one that the front site uses and Windows) out of the box, without writing another custom code? Is it important how my WCF is hosted? Currently it's windows service. Do i need to switch to IIS 7?
I want to protect a section of my website using forms authentication with the username and password as defined by me in the web.config. When I attempt to login I get the message below.
Server Error in '/' Application.
Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.aspnet_CheckSchemaVersion'.
I'm guessing this is happening because it's attempting to use the Membership tables as defined by the LocalSqlServer connection string. I don't want to use the Membership features, how do I configure my web app to do that?
Will I need to write the Authenticate function myself for the in-built Login control?
i want to run an ASP.NET MVC 2 web application on a .NET 3.5 shared-host provider, I will not mention this provider's name. I will refer to this provider as FOO.
The general community that uses FOO states that it can be done, but the Tech Support at FOO are not consistent:
"What is MVC?" or "Yes, but only on dedicated hosts", or "Yes, it can upon both dedicated and shared hosts" -but they do not know the details.
The general community states that FOO can host ASP.NET MVC 2 on shared hosts, but details on how it is done is inconsistent.
What are general rules of thumb about setting up an ASP.NET MVC 2 for a shared-host environment?
Let us say that we create a vanilla (default) MVC 2 web application from withinVS 2008/2010. What modification should I perform, other than use .NET 3.5 andcopy local System.Web.Mvc.
Using the a Membership provider and the MVC framework, is it possible that routes are dynamically changed so that a already logged in user goes to his own page, rather than the default.
At the moment I go to the default. If the user is already logged in or not, there I do a redirect to their own page. This can't be the correct way! Can it?
In RegisterRoutes I have this
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute("Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }
);
I know this question is asked (and answered) a lot already, but I believe my situation is unique.
We are using the ASP.NET SqlMembershipProvider. However, we also have some less-secure content we would like to secure by adding users directly to the web.config, like so...
<forms loginUrl="login.aspx" defaultUrl="default.aspx">
<credentials passwordFormat="Clear">
<user name="user1" password="123" />
<user name="user2" password="456" />
</credentials>
</forms>
Is it possible to use this method alongside a SQL Membership Provider? If so, how?
I know it's bad practice to do this. This is only a stepping stone as we move parts of our website into the asp.net application. We would like some of those password to be easily editable without going to the database.
I can't get my profile providers (supported databases are SQL Server and MySQL) working if I use DSN in connectionstrings like "dsn=dsnName;User ID=userif;Password=psw;". Profiles are working fine with "normal" connectionstrings.
View 2 RepliesI am writing a login routine that uses a .NET login control and I have a membership provider as well and set it all up in the config file. But I don't plan on using a connection string as I will be calling a web service in my ValidateUser function. Do I need the connection string in the config because it seems to throw an error if I don't have it.
In that case if you need it then wouldn't it be better to treat this membership provider class more as a normal class and just make calls to it directly like any class and not put any setting on my login control and remove the entry from my web.config

Am using form authentication for user authentication. In my login page am using Membership.ValidateUser(username,password),which is using default membership provider. Now my situation is i need to override the default DB and connect to multiple DB based on URL request send to my web server.
I've been tasked with writing a SP (Service Provider) for SAML v2.0 in ASP.NET, and I wonder the following;If a user logs in on the main SP for a service (where my SP becomes accessible for a user as an anchor/link, unless previously bookmarked), and then requests access to my SP, how should I handle their login?
They will have logged in and become authorized by the IdP on the main SP, but how will that SP tell my SP that the user is logged in? Will I have to send a new authorization request to the IdP to determine whether the user is logged in or should it be passed on as post data/redirect with a query string from the SP? I've read the technical overview as well as the basics, but they don't cover this part. I will contact the main SP and ask how to proceed, but I wanted to cover my bases first and see if there's a standard way on how to deal with this situation.
I'd like to know if its possible to use two membership providers within a single application. I need to have a membership provider "power users" and administrators on a site and a different one for clients and customers who will want to register on the site. I'd like to know if its possible to have two different membership providers to handle these two different sets of users. If it is, how do i go about it?
View 4 RepliesI want to create a Rich Internet Application in Silverlight. One of the requirements is that the back-end of the application should work with different database providers (SQLServer, PostgreSQL, Oracle). I'm planning to use Entity Data Model to represent database objects and Domain Services to expose these objects to the client.The problem is that I don't have a clue if the same data model can be used with different database providers and how sophisticated that would be to change the provider without recreating all the model.I want the application to be reusable on different environments, so that i can import the same database schema to any existing database, change the provider in the ASP.NET web application and that's it.Is it doable? Or maybe there are other ways to achieve similar functionality?
View 1 Repliesi am in the process of developing an asp.net mvc 2 social web app and some of the requirements have to do with users authentication and personalization. Site visitors should be able to login using credentials not only by registering to my site but also by entering external account credentials (Live ID, facebook, etc...). Also, users should have a custom profile, where they could enter personal details, preferences, etc...
Is there any good tutorial on how to implement custom membership and profile providers? The default Role provider that comes with asp.net mvc is ok and does not need to be re-implemented.
I'd like to know how membership providers works under the hood, if it uses cookies, session, the principal and identity thread objects, etc.. etc.. where can I find information?
View 3 RepliesI am now using SQL Server 2008 EXPRESS x64 on a PC running WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE x64 bit.
how to configure ASP.Net Membership Providers because I can't attach a database created after this example :
http://aquesthosting.headtreez.com/doc/29423088-74cd-4d51-b2ee-3cb958f08d1a
(I have created runproviders.sql with my Visual Studio x64 Win64 Command Prompt (2010) )
Still now working...
Every time I run ASP.NET Configuration -> Provider -> Select a single provider for all site management data and TEST for
AspNetSqlProvider
I get the following error every time :
"Could not establish a connection to the database.
If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider."
I can tell you for sure that my new created database is working because i used a web page with a CreateUserWizard1 control and I can create new users.Even I can see the new creted user with ASP.NET Configuration -> Security.
I am new to using the membership provider. I have been working in a small shop that has very focused programming and we are starting to venture out as our needs have grown. My question is the following:
Once I have created the asp schema and I set up users. How do I perform database access using those user accounts? I know how to perform access using a database account (schema), but do not understand how to use a user that only exists in a user table to access data tables.
Do I use an anonymous account and control access on the front end?
How to I track audit fields?
I have two connection strings being used:
<add
name="db1"
connectionString="Server=localhost;user
id=root;password=;persist security info=True;Database=db1"
providerName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient"/>
<add
name="db2"
connectionString="Server=localhost;user
id=root;password=;persist security info=True;Database=db2"
providerName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient"/>
I would like to have two different Role Providers using these connection strings:
<roleManager
enabled="true"
defaultProvider="rp1"
cacheRolesInCookie="true"
createPersistentCookie="false"
cookieProtection="All">
<providers>
<clear/>
<add
name="rp1"
type="MySql.Web.Security.MySQLRoleProvider,
MySql.Web, Version=6.1.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d"
connectionStringName="db1"
applicationName="test"/>
<add
name="rp2"
type="MySql.Web.Security.MySQLRoleProvider, MySql.Web, Version=6.1.3.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=c5687fc88969c44d"
connectionStringName="db1"
applicationName="test"/>
My application starts with a login screen. Based on what the user selects, I would like to control which database to connect to. (DB1 vs DB2). The problem is, when the application starts the Role Provider defaults to "rp1". Is there a way I can change the default provider during runtime?
I want to know if we can use multiple membership providers simultaneously in a single ASP.net application.
View 1 RepliesI have the following connectionStrings in my web.config file:

<add name="myApp2_dev" connectionString="Server=localhost;user id=root;password=;persist security info=True;Database=dbTwo" providerName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" />

</providers>
</roleManager>
...
I dont know if this was the best way (somewhat new to vb.net), but in my Login.aspx page, I set global session variable to one of the two connection strings. If the user logs into App1, it uses connectionString myApp1_dev; if user selects App2, it uses myApp2_dev. My question / problem is: Each of the two databases have their own MySQL membership and role tables. If the user logs into App1, I would like to the dbOne database tables. If user selects App2, select dbTwo tables. Can I support Roles from multiple databases?
how do i do that through config file?
