How To Create A Local User Profile For Both Machine And Domain Accounts

Feb 11, 2010

I am using ASP.NET 3.5 and SQL SERVER 2008. And I have a very simple code within my ASP.NET page :

Quote:

[code]....

The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:

If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.

If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database. Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.

The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

How To Create The Proxies From Wsdl Files On Local Machine

Mar 16, 2011

I have a web service I need to connect to. But when trying to connect to it through visual studios, I get this error. The request failed with HTTP status 405: Method Not Allowed. I have the wsdl files on my location machine. I was told to create the proxies from these. The problem is I'm not quite sure how. This seems to be a little over my head right now. Not the best project to learn WCF or WSE on. Does anyone know how to create the proxies from wsdl files on my local machine. The services themselves are pretty simple, they just have security elements in the headers. UsernameToken. And then some custom fields.

C# - Authenticate Against A Local Windows User On Another Machine In An Application?

May 24, 2010

In my ASP.NET application, I need to be able to authenticate/authorise against local Windows users/groups (ie. not Active Directory) on a different machine, as well as be able to change the passwords of said remote local Windows accounts.

Yes, I know Active Directory is built for this sort of thing, but unfortunately the higher ups have decreed it needs to be done this way (so authentication against users in a database is out as well).

I've tried using DirectoryEntry and WinNT like so:

DirectoryEntry user = new DirectoryEntry(String.Format("WinNT://{0}/{1},User",
serverName, username), username, password, AuthenticationTypes.Secure)

but this results in an exception when you try to log in more than one user:

Multiple connections to a server or shared resource by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed. Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again.

I've tried making sure my DirectoryEntries are used inside a using block, so they're disposed properly, but this doesn't seem to fix the issue. Plus, even if that did work it is possible that two users could hit that line of code concurrently and therefore try to create multiple connections, so it would be fragile anyway.

Is there a better way to authenticate against local Windows accounts on a remote machine, authorise against their groups, and change their passwords?

On one of my pages I display a datetime (from a database) and it is formatted correctly as a UK date time (dd-mm-yyyy) on my local machine. However when I deploy it to a server it reverts to American format (mm-dd-yyyy). Does anyone have any idea of when this might be happening?This might be outside the scope of stackoverflow

Viewing File Using .net / To Copy/download File To Local User Machine And To Open

Nov 16, 2010

In our application, we allow user to upload documents which can be PDF, Doc, XLS, TXT. Uploaded documents will be saved on web server. We need to display link for each document user uploaded and when user click on that link, it should open relevant document. it is expected to have required software to open relevant documents.

To upload document, we use saveAs method of FileUpload control and it works absolutely fine.Now, how to view it?I believe, i need to copy/download file to local user machine and need to open it using Process.Start.For that i need to find user local temp directory. if i put path.GetTempPath(), it gives me web server directory and copy file there.

File.Copy(
sPath + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
Path.GetTempPath() + dataReader["url"].ToString(),
true);

C# - Get Local Groups And Not The Primary Groups For A Domain User

Dec 18, 2010

i have a code to get the groups a user belongs to.

try
{
DirectoryEntry adRoot = new DirectoryEntry(string.Format("WinNT://{0}", Environment.UserDomainName));
DirectoryEntry user = adRoot.Children.Find(completeUserName, "User");
object obGroups = user.Invoke("Groups");
foreach (object ob in (IEnumerable)obGroups)
{
// Create object for each group.
DirectoryEntry obGpEntry = new DirectoryEntry(ob);
listOfMyWindowsGroups.Add(obGpEntry.Name);
}
return true;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
new GUIUtility().LogMessageToFile("Error in getting User MachineGroups = " + ex);
return false;
}

the above code works fine when i have to find the groups of a local user but

for a domain user it returns a value "Domain User" which is kind of wierd as it is a part of 2 local groups.

Research

I did some finding and got that i am being returned the primary group of the domain user

called "Domain User" group

but what i actually want is the groups of the local machines the domain user is a part of... i cannot get that.. any suggestions

another code using LDAP

string domain = Environment.UserDomainName;
DirectoryEntry DE = new DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" + domain, null, null, AuthenticationTypes.Secure);
DirectorySearcher search = new DirectorySearcher();
search.SearchRoot = DE;
search.Filter = "(SAMAccountName=" + completeUserName + ")"; //Searches active directory for the login name
search.PropertiesToLoad.Add("displayName"); // Once found, get a list of Groups
try
{
SearchResult result = search.FindOne(); // Grab the records and assign them to result
if (result != null)
{
DirectoryEntry theUser = result.GetDirectoryEntry();
theUser.RefreshCache(new string[] { "tokenGroups" });
foreach (byte[] resultBytes in theUser.Properties["tokenGroups"])
{
System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier mySID = new System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier(resultBytes, 0);
DirectorySearcher sidSearcher = new DirectorySearcher();
sidSearcher.SearchRoot = DE;
sidSearcher.Filter = "(objectSid=" + mySID.Value + ")";
sidSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add("distinguishedName");
SearchResult sidResult = sidSearcher.FindOne();
if (sidResult != null)
{
listOfMyWindowsGroups.Add((string)sidResult.Properties["distinguishedName"][0]);
}
}
}
else
{
new GUIUtility().LogMessageToFile("no user found");
}
return true;
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
new GUIUtility().LogMessageToFile("Error obtaining group names: " + ex.Message + " Please contact your administrator."); // If an error occurs report it to the user.
return false;
}

this works too but i get the same result "Domain Users" . Please can some1 tell me how to get the local machine groups...?

Does Server.MapPath Behaves Differently In Local Machine And Server Machine

Jul 1, 2010

I have had a real nightmare with Server.MapPath(). When I call Server.MapPath("~") in my application that is running in ASP.NET Development Server it returns root directory that ends in a back slash like f:projectsapp1, but I call it in published version, installed in IIS, it returns root directory without any back slash like c:inetpubwwwrootapp1.

string mainRoot = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("~");
DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(mainRoot);
//added to solve this problem with Server.MapPath
if (!mainRoot.EndsWith(@""))
mainRoot += @"";
FileInfo[] files = di.GetFiles("*.aspx");
foreach (FileInfo item in files)
{
string path = item.FullName.Replace(mainRoot, "~/").Replace(@"", "/");
//do more here

Security :: Create User Account For Web Authentication From Non-web/local Application?

Sep 12, 2010

I have an application which is installed on local pc and is using SQL db. It is a client management system where I want to add capability to register new clients and give them access to my web site which is sharing the same SQL database with local application.

At the moment clients can register on the web site and I have ASP.NET authorisation system set up with aspnetdb_user, aspnetdb_membership and etc tables. But sometimes it happens that I need to register clients on my local application on PC and ideally would like that registration to create online account for the client as well. Then I want to be able to send him user id and password by email and let him know that he has been registered in my database and online account is ready for him as well.

Basically I want to have full synchronization between asp.net membership service and local application through SQL db. As I said both online and local apps are shareing the same SQL database. what would be the best practice to implement it.

Architecture :: Allow Each User To Create A Webpage On Domain / Virtual Directory Not Being Configured As An Application In IIS

Mar 1, 2010

I want to allow each user to create a webpage on our domain. example: www.site.com/username

I've created a few pages that get content from database and place it in a folder. I want each user to be able to edit their own data and when they hit "submit". the system will then copy those pages to a folder and modify the code so it read from the right database.

I keep getting "virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS" errors. Is there any way around this error? I want the process to be 100% automatic so that I don't need to manually go into the server and configure the IIS myself.
