Iis - Change Authentication Deals With Non Files?
Mar 7, 2011
Whenever I've worked with asp.net authentication / authorization in the past, I can remember that it never used to secure .htm .js .css files (actually, any file that isn't processed by asp.net isapi dll). After a while of doing other work I've now come back to doing some web development, this time using VS2010 and now the opposite is true. It appears as if all files are secured because the images and .js files on my login page aren't working.
My question is, was my initial assumption about how non asp.net files are dealt with wrong? If not, when did this change happen? Has there been a change in the VS2010 development server that now means that all files are processed by asp.net?
I've just noticed that when I run my project from a local IIS server, non asp.net files (eg images and .js) are NOT secured. However, when run from the VS Development server they are. Clearly this down to configuration differences between IIS and the dev server. This leads me to another question.. Is it possible to configure the VS dev server?

I have a website on IIS 7. This website has a HttpModule with an AuthorizeRequest event handler. This event does not fire for CSV files and I can access the file without logging in, I guess this is because IIS7 is not configured to require form autentication for CSV files.

I have a website running on a IIS 7.5 server with ASP.NET 4.0 on a shared host, but in full trust.
The site is a basic "file browser" that allows the visitors to login and have a list of files available to them displayed, and, obviously, download the files. The static files (mostly pdf files) are located in a sub folder on the site called data, e.g. http://example.com/data/...
The site uses ASP.NET form authentication.
My question is: How do I get the ASP.NET engine to handle the requests for the static files in the data folder, so that request for files are authenticated by ASP.NET, and users are not able to deep link to a file and grab files they are not allowed to have?

I'm seeing some new behavior in Forms Authentication after upgrading to .NET 4.0. This occurs only on IIS 6, not on 7.
Background - In web.config, we configure Forms Authentication, and then use <authorization> tags to globally deny anonymous/unauthenticated users access. Then we explicitly allow access to a login.aspx page using a <location> tag. Generally, this works fine, as it did when we were on .NET 2.0 (3.5).
The issue only occurs when we visit the root path of the site, ie "http://myserver/". Our default document is configured in IIS to be login.aspx. Under .NET 4.0, upon visiting that URL, we're redirected to "http://myserver/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=/". If you log in from here, you're logged in and returned back at the log in page (yuck).
Just wanted to post this here to see if anyone else is experiencing this. It's not listed on any "breaking changes" documentation I've been able to find. Either I'm missing something, or the UrlAuthorization module has changed and is no longer "smart" about IIS default documents.

I have a web app, which contains a folder Uploads, to which users (authenticated) upload their files (for some reason it has to be a folder in the root of the web app).I want to deny access to this folder and files to all non-authenticated users.
In my web.config I have:
[Code]....
and everything seems to work in development, but on a staging server it redirects non-authenticated users to login page ONLY from aspx pages, but not when entering the url to the file in Uploads folder.

How can I change loginurl using Forms Auth?
I am using web.config to configure all permissions.
At root web.config, I set login url. Now I need to change loginurl at a subfolder, but ASP.NET give me a error if I try to re-configure at inner web.config.

I have some static (pure html) pages in my MVC application that I need to authenticate, so that not just anybody can look at them. Is there an way to do this without moving all the code to asp files and adding a controller and from there use the Authorize attribute? I would really prefer to not need to do this!

Using windows Authentication... is it possible to progrematically change a password?
I tried using several ways to do this. I tried using the ChangePassword control. This tells me that minimun characters is 7 even though I have more then 7 characters... I also tried using this method:
[Code]....
The user is always null... and I am assuming this is because this object is indended to use with Forms authentication.
All I want to do is have an option for users to change passwords. Is this possible with Windows Authentication?

I am working on Login control and I am new in ASP.NET. So far what I did is :
1. In Website->ASP.NET Configuration I change the form authentication to internet.
2. I created a user profile
3. This gave me a ASPNETDB.mdf database.
4. I added this code :
[Code]....Stack Trace:
[Code]....
[SqlException (0x80131904): Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed.] System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) +4849015 [code]....

I'm using the mvc authorize attribute on my controllers. Using forms authentication, I'd like to be able to redirect unauthenticated users to a different loginUrl based on the route or target url. I'm guessing that creating my own authorize atribute isn't the right thing to do because it shouldn't know about the authentication module you are using (Windows/Forms etc). What would be a good way to acheive this?

I have no experience in ASP.NET development.We have installed a Webmail product from Afterlogic. we have to remove the markup for a logout button. but we are not able to edit the .aspx files. we can remove the markup for the button compleately.but it is still there on the page when we refresh.Do we have to recompile the whole thing each time we make a change ? Is this some sort of cache problem ? We have tried to delete the browser cache. but it had no effect.

I am using MVC 3 with a few Resource Files. I made the resource files Public.
I am able to the localized values in the Views and in the Controllers.
They change correctly when the Thread Culture changes.
But in my Model Validation Classes the Resource strings I get are always the same.
They do not change when I change the Thread Culture.
I am on this for 2 days and not able to find the problem.

I've got a custom menu navigation built from a web.sitemap file, the first line of this would be something like:
SiteMapNodeCollection topLevelNodes = SiteMap.RootNode.ChildNodes;
However, now I want to be able to create multiple web.sitemap files, and then programmatically determine which web.sitemap file to use, but I can't seem to find out how to do this. I'm assuming I could either create one custom SiteMapProvider that can perform the logic to determine which web.sitemap file to load, or I have multiple providers, each one with the SiteMapFile property set to a specific *.sitemap file, and then switch providers programmatically before I access SiteMap.RootNode.

This could be very straight forward for some of you, but I got caught up. I am doing very simple test - browsing from IIS Manager to see the default page or "under Construction", however I am being challenged to provide my login credential . When I provide my login credential, I am able to see the default page. I wanted to see the default page without providing my credential since Enable anoymous access + basic authentication I am simply wanted to see the default page asit is working on other servers except this one. I have included screen print to make sure may question is clear.

'm using the AutoCompleteExtender from the AJAX control toolkit on my aspx page - I have it wired up to a WCF service that is returning a string array and everything works happily.
If I change my service definition to include a demand for the caller to be authenticated, like so:
<OperationContract(), PrincipalPermission(SecurityAction.Demand, Authenticated:=True)> _Public Function GetLookupValues(ByVal prefixText As String, ByVal count As Integer, ByVal contextKey As String) As String()
Then the autocomplete extender stops working, and I get an authentication error in the service. The service is set up to use ASPNetCompatibility mode, and I was hoping that the extender would pass the authentication credentials for my logged in user - does anyone know how to make this work?
