Security :: Impersonation With Domain Account Without Joining The Domain?
Sep 28, 2010
My feeling says it's not posible but anyway I am curious if there is at least a workaround for accomplish this.Basically I am working at my client site and my machine is not connected to the domain.What I want to do is running a web application locally under a domain account, and using the webdev server.The webapp uses the default authentication, windows authentication that is.I tried using impersonation with domainuser & password but I got the following error Could not create Windows user token from the credentials specified in the config file. Error from the operating system 'Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.I have to mention that the username and the password are correct.

I have a machine in MyDomain on which i have deployed the website and file server as virtual directory. For file server i have created an application pool with identity as UserName and Password. And file server directory setting as Integrated Windows Authentication instead of Anonymous Access. When i am accessing file server from outside the domain then it is asking for user name password. After providing the credentials it open the file. Now i am trying to access the file server from wbsite using the machine outside the domain.Before accessing i am impersonating the current user with user which is present in identity. But after redirecting to the file server url it is again asking the credntial. why it is asking the credential if i have already impersonated the user.
I am trying to build a login page as follows.On the machine on which i want to host the application i have a windows administrators group in which some windows domain users are.Now on building the login page i only want those people to access the application on login. What is the best way to acomplish this.
I've been researching and I've spent pratically all day on this. Here's my issue. The website uses forms authentication that we authenticate against active directory. I've been attempting to access files we have on a network share and push them down to the user (when they request them) in an http response. I keep getting "Access to the path <unc path> is denied".
Here's the code:
[Code]....
Things I've tried:1) When I add the "Computer" to the permissions of the folder it works and I dont even need to emulate a user (essentially just commenting out this code), but I'm not sure we want to explicitly give the computer access to some of our network shares 2) I've verified it's the correct username and password for the active directory account and that they have permissions on these network shares 3) I've fooled around with the WebProxy class with no luck (as I'm not entirely familiar with it) 4) I've tried impersonating the user by creating a windows token and passing the token as credentials (i've done this with similar websites) with no luck, plus this seemed a bit complicated for something I figured would be relatively easy.Its almost as if, the WebClient class isn't even using the credentials i've passed it.We've got it working now, but only by giving the "Computer" specific permissions on the network shares, which we'd like to avoid.
I have an asp.net application which was working fine with the AppPool Identity set to Netwrok Service or Local System or Local Service. But If I change the app pool identity to a domain account (I am using my account itself) I am unable to access the application from any other machine except the web server.I am using Windows Integrated Authentication.I tried resetting IIS, Restart W3SVC, aspnet_regiis -ga . But no luck.
I have a domain: http://www.mydomain.com. This domain is redirected to http://mydomain.anotherDomain.com.
I user forms authorization, so when the user navigates to Default.aspx he is redirected to Login.aspx. Pretty standard stuff.
On FireFox the user can log in on both on http://www.mydomain.com and http://mydomain.anotherDomain.com.
But with Explorer http://www.mydomain.com doesn't work. I only get the Login.aspx page.
Can it have anything to do with that on http://www.mydomain.com I can't see the filename ('Default.aspx', 'Login.aspx')? How can I enable so the filename is included in the redirected domain?
I have an intranet web application. There are 2 user groups, group A belongs to the domain and group B does not. If I set the IIS to enable anonymous access, Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER") always return nothing. If I disable anonymous access and set Integrated Windows authenication, a Windows login prompt will come up if group B's users want to access the website.
How can I setup IIS so that when domain user access the website, it will direct to the main page with Session("user_name") = Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER"). If a user is not a domain user, the website will direct him/her to a login.aspx instead of having the Windows authenication prompt, then set Session("user_name") = txtUserName.Text, and finally redirect to the website main page ?
We have a website for our company on one domain and we have a login form to a webmail solution on another domain.Now i would like to build a form on our website the transfers the request to the login form on the webmail domain and automatically validate the user if user and pass are correct.Need help to find the correct way of doing this. The domains is hosted by our company, the website and webmail is on different servers. I don't want to use the querystring,
I am trying to achieve a SSO implimentation across my websites so i am using the machine key attribute to do so.now the trouble starts here as the website the user logs in is on the .net 1.1 framework and the website it it navigating to is .net 4.0.I have share the same machine-key across both the application . It works fine in my testing environment but as i move to the deployment server ,it just dosent work !So what i could do is read this article on MSDN :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/eb0zx8fc.aspx this tells me to add a domin attribute like below <forms loginUrl="~Login.aspx" defaultUrl="Default.aspx" protection="All" timeout="80" name=".ASPXAuth" domain="asbc.com"/> but this thing just dosent work on the 1.1 application and throws an error Unrecognized attribute 'domain'.
Where do i get to mention the domin in my 1.1 application.?
In our database we have an SQL server account that has the correct roles to access some of the databases.All of our PC and Servers are in domain using Windows Account. Now there is ASP.NET web application, we want the users in the domain to browser some data in the sql server. But we do not want to grant direct permission to every person, so is it possible to connect to sql server and run some T-SQL without granting permission to users using one specify account?
I'm getting "Windows NT user or group 'domainwebservername' not found" when I query the following. Why? This is how I got ny domain and webservername. Response.Write(Environment.UserDomainName); Response.Write(Request.ServerVariables["SERVER_NAME"]);
-- Create a SQL Server login for your application's domain account sp_grantlogin 'domainwebservername$' -- Grant the login access to the membership database USE aspnetdb GO sp_grantdbaccess 'domainwebservername$', 'Web Server Name' -- Add user to database role USE aspnetdb GO sp_addrolemember 'aspnet_Membership_FullAccess', 'domainwebservername$'
I need an idea please, i have the task of disabling the Domain Administrator account, but we have a very messed up AC and im practilly new employee here. The administrator account has been used on several services, servers, print servers, etc. Across the network and sites. All our intersite communication is perfect.So what i want is a way to know in which devices this account is configured.Is there a way or tool, where i can input the account, and the output should be a list of servers, ip adresses or devices where the account is configured?
We have a ASP.NET site that partially depends on forms authentication for login credentials, however the implementation of IPrincipal is completely custom.
But, when running the site on a particular server (which is somewhat semi-hardened when it comes to security), the app crashes when invoking IPrincipal.IsInRole() with the following messsage:
System.SystemException: The trust relationship between the primary domain and the trusted domain failed.
This indicates a communication error between the web-server and the DC, however since our application doesn't at all utilizes Windows authentication, I don't see why it needs to communicate with the DC.
This is my implementation:
[code]...
EDIT:
I was finally enable to reproduce this error on my dev-machine (i revoked my machine from the DC yesterday, but didn't reproduce it until today)
HttpContext.User is actually a WindowsPrincipal by default it seems, and the error in my code was that I only replace it with CustomPrincipal upon login. Hence, unathenticated users still get the WindowsPrincipal which then fails horribly if you have trust issues on your AD.
I tried changing the default principal by invoking this on appstart
Im returning the username from sharepoint site as a string. This is done successfully with the below code but I also get the domain with it. How can I only return the username and not the domain either through sharepoint or programmatically removing it? domain/username
I have two domain servers X and Y.My Asp.net Web application is hosted on Domain X.But my scope is required to authorize the user of Domain Y on the Web application hosted on Domain X server.I am using Windows Authetication mode in application
I have a main domain "mydomain.com" and then a sub domain "forums.mydomain.com". If a user visits "forums.mydomain.com" without being logged in, they are redirected to "mydomain.com/login.aspx".
The two scenarios are:
If they are redirected to the login page with "mydomain.com/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=http://forums.mydomain.com", then they are succesfully logged into the forums but NOT the main site.
If they are simply redirected to the login page with "mydomain.com/login.aspx" with no returnUrl, they are correctly logged into both the main site and the forums.
I run a simple .aspx website on a Windows Server 2008 machine.There is no impersonation, and System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name returns NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE, which it the account which the application pool runs.I tried to test the security of the application and server by removing file permissions to the .aspx files. I was greatly worried when the website continued to run without problem (it should not have been able to read the .aspx files).By turning on file level auditing, I discovered that the .aspx files were being read by the machine$ account (if the machine is called Serv1, then the files would be read by the Serv1$ account, which seems to have access to all files on the local machine).Is this a security breach or is this behaviour by design ?
in my asp.net application, I am trying to upload email from outlook of my account. I get the error mentioned below.
[System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException] = {"The server to which the application is connected cannot impersonate the requested user due to insufficient permission."}
The following code works as it was originally designed to move a file from one directory to another directory on the same server, but I need to change it to work so it will move a file from one server to another server. My challenge is how to define the source directory on a different server and check if file exists.
Code behind:
Protected Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click
I wrote an asp.net application that I'm trying to run on a godaddy domain I bought. I need to read a file in a folder that I did not give read access to so that your average user cannot see in the informaion in that folder. I assumed that the asp.net program would have the same credentials as myself because server-side code. Turns out I am wrong. When I go to use the asp.net application it throws an access denied error saying that the ASP.NET user account has to be given permissions to access the folder.
After talking to two different tech support people at godaddy I've come to the realization that they are either dumb or lazy (or a combo of the two).I came across some code that you can put into the web.config file that would allow the asp.net application to impersonate a user, which would work great to use myself as the impersonated user. However it seems that godaddy cannot give me the name of the server that my domain is on (that's understandable) so I don't know what to put in the identity tag to get this to work.
Here is the code I found:
[Code]....
(of course I filled in the username and password with the correct info)
When I went to use it again it threw this error:
System.Web.HttpException: The current identity (PHX3username) does not have write access to 'C:WindowsMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Temporary ASP.NET Files'.
