In my web application, an users identity is verified at the page load using his n/w credentials.Now i have this 'Adding Attachment' functionality which us creating the problem. I have to store the file in a different server which have access to only one userid. I guess i hv to impersonate the cuurent user with the other user id for this functionality alone
I have an aspx page which displays a user's details in a Label. It takes their User.Identity.Name and queries Active Directory using the following code:
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:
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"
I have a web application using Forms authentication provided by AD. I would like to know if it's possible to use EWS to send mail as the currently logged in user without having to supply credentials, or; would I be required to set up an account with impersonating access which will send mail on behalf of the currently logged in user?
I have a web application with a login form. A user enters a user name and password. If they exist in the database the user is authenticated using these two lines: [Code]....
The problem is that when a user logs in at first he is logged in as himself. When navigating on the web application for a while the user assumes the identity of another logged in user. This happens all the time. In my web.config the authentication mode looks like this: [Code]....
The site does not use ASP.NET session variables. Instead each page initializes a Singleton class, which stores itself in a static class variable, always accessing the users data already read from the database. The Singleton implementation is: [Code]....
Could the problem with assuming another logged in users "session" be related to static classes in my application or a Forms Authentication configuration or a configuration in IIS (e.g. is it possible for users to have their own process?).
I have the following code-behind that executes when a user clicks a verification link from their email. The code works up to the sql update part - the user role is updated, then I get the error below. Can someone look at this and tell me what is going wrong:
Code-Behind:
[Code]....

I am developing a asp.net application and i am using SQL Server 2008. I took a IDENTITY column as Record_ID for detail table where i will have trillions of records per year. So just want to ask whats the largest number record id (identity) column can hold and in ASP.NET which data type i should use to handle record id as i am using this id as a reference to update the table data. I don't want to end up being trapped some day.
I hv Declared two Master page one Is Base and Derived.. Base Page Load is working but when i hv written load controls in Derived Page Load Using C# it's not working..
Web pages are, by nature, state-less objects. When you click from page to page in an ASP.net application, each request for a page is treated as a brand-new request. We use things like cookies, session-variables, and query strings to maintain state from page to page.
When you log in to an ASP.net web application using Windows Authentication, how does IIS persist your identity between pages?
I'm trying to access User.Identity from my master page so I can figure out which user is logged in, however I can't get it to work. If I import System.Security.Principal in my master page it makes no difference:
I am trying to create a progress bar for page load as it takes long to load. I need help to resolve jscript error 'null' is null or not an object on line $get("btn").click();
I have a update panel on the ASPX page,When thepage loads the content in the update panel shouldnot load ( Update panel should show the Updatepanel progress control) but after page load update panel contents should load . How do i get this efect.
we are creating a custom content management and out portal page is bit bulky it is about 60Kb without images.
and during loading the page in some browser we can see some parts of site load faster than the other parts of the site where as we want to indicate (or instruct the web server) to load some of the areas first then load rest of the page.
is there any particular setting in IIS for is there any particular method in classic asp for doing that? also I have the same question in asp.net.
I'm developing my first Facebook application in ASP.NET 2.0 and doing a simplest thing, that is, to show a navigation on top with four hyperlinks where each link targets to another .aspx page. How can I do this using FBML in ASP.NET 2.0?
Otherwise coming to my question, where I'm struck after trying above thing at myself and failed then had to go around the Ajax way of doing this. Now I'm using Ajax call over the onclick event of each hyperlink from top navigation and it's succesfully loading external .aspx pages (for example,[URL]. The problem is when user comes on the application on first time, it only shows the .aspx page which has a navigation and a Ajax content place holder which is programmed to be filled with contents on click event.
How to load Ajax contents into the Ajax content place holder on page load without a click event?
I am using a third party gateway. The third party gateway does not support query-string , so i will need to post the form to pass the values to the given URL and another thing is that they don't expose the web-services so we need to use their page and that means we need to host it in an iframe in asp.net
so what i did is that i have hidden fields that will be used as parameters as depicted below
Now the purpose of this , is to load the iframe after the page load event of the asp.net gets fired.
Now my problem here is that when the iframe loads , it does not pass the parameters to the url that is being set in the iframe.
I have attached the example, project. (2kb)
When you run the project you will notice when the iframe loads there is an Error
"NO VCS ID"
now this means that the parameters were not passed when the Iframe loads , i can understand because it seems like iframe does not do a full form post. so to demonstrate what i want, click the proceed button and you will notice it will give you a page with no errors and it will be a page where credit card details are required , i want to iframe to load that the first time.
In IIS 7.5 server I have a website apps.mydomain.com. Site binding for this website is:
IP: All Unassigned
Port: 80
Host name: apps.mydomain.com
In DNS there is an ip address pointing to apps.mydomain.com. Site comes up fine when browsing to this hostname.
I want to get current windows logged in username from asp.net web apps. I enabled windows authentication and disabled anonymous. Using this ASP.Net code to test:
Response.Write(Page.User.Identity.Name);
However, browsing to http://apps.mydomain.com/site/ the application pool identity shows as the Page.User.Identity.Name value and not the current windows logged in username.
If I browse to http://servername/site/ then Page.User.Identity.Name will return current windows logged in username.
Is there something else I need to configure to get the current windows logged in username when using host header?
When I use a Master Page with a Content Page, in the Content Page script I find that User object is defined, with Identity and IsInRole properties. However, when I enter script on the Master Page itself User comes up as "not declared".
I am guessing that User is embedded in some namespace that is automatically imported to Content pages, but haven't been able to track it down.
I've to fix an old ASP.NET application's appearance so that it can conform to the new web visual identity of my organization. The old application does not have any master page and uses a very basic .include file. Modifying the .include header does not change the overall look of the app's pages much, and I still have to manually import new css definitions, replace the table tags with divs on the 60 odd .aspx pages.How should I proceed? I have long term maintainability in mind, so a master page is the obvious solution.
