Security :: Web Farm Using Window Authentication Or Form Authentication?
Aug 9, 2010
I have a web farm web project, and want to make sure windows authentication is working well without any problem in web farm, can any one give me some web sites or information about that?
Asp.net can be use window authentication. In my web site i want to control with window authentication and form. Is it possible to do?
If it possible to do how can be make it? Another one is, if i use window authentication, how can be identify group. For example. Sales group cannot be see purchase or etc. Window log in can be give group. So how can i define this part?
I needed information regarding the capabilities & integration of AzMan tool with Asp.net.Currently, I got a Sharepoint 2007 website along with ASP.NET 2008 where I am using Form Based Authenication.Now, the requirement is any user within a domain registered in AD should be able to login in website through intranet.
Can I acheive this using AzMan, or I need to create two websites one with FBA for internet users and the other one for the intranet users with AD authenication. Also my intenet website is deployed and in use where usermapping and roles are already created, so using this tool what will be the impact on existing webiste.
Just going to start making a web application and was wondering which was better, or at least what are the main differences between them (as it probably matters what I am using them for)?
the authentication using forms will result in a similar line of code
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(strUsrNm, True)
this is fine in a non load balanced server instance. how does authentication work in a load balanced stuation (no sticky session/infinity), and you cannot store the client IP, users password or login in the browser.
Browser Load balancer Web app (on server 1) || Web app (on server 2)
limitations: no database sessions, no AD server (for example: cater for external users)in short - in a load balanced situation how does the appliation know who the user is if they authenticated against the other server without re-authenticating.
I have a database which has form authentication tables for an website [let say website A], now I have attached a new website [Website B] to the same database, in this website [Website B] also I have to provide login/authentication which would be separate from the website A authentication system. So I want to have separate table for the users of new website. Specification:
[code]....
will there be any open source membership provider like we have .NET membership provider [form authentication].
In the web.config, how do add a connection string by using a window authentication with the username and password? I have tried like this and it keeps ignoring the username and password
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.
I set authentication mode to Windows in the web.config and I enable Windows Authentication and disable the Anonymous Authentication in IIS 7 on win 7, but HttpContext.Current.User is always null.It works fine when I host the web app in IIS 6.0.
I want to create a web service that can authenticate user from my application. I will be sending user name and password from my app to the web service and that will deny or accept the user. I want to use form authentication using sql server. that this web service can be used by other team in my office so that they can just call the web service and the user will be authenticated.
Also, is it possible to use both form and windows authentication in my web service and authenticate the user both ways.
I have developed an Interanet web application using the windows Active directory authentication if user find then it automaticaly authenticated working correctly now my user wants the capability of being able to login to the intranet site as another user by providing the username and Password . For example, Team lead needs to login on other team memeber System to pefrom some task on his behalf if he or she is not aviable in office .
I have created a standard MS Login Page. However when I try to login on the page only by providing the Username system authenitcate the user ( not validating the password of that user)
I'm using Form Authentication in my web application.In my application I have a lot of pop up windows that include form inside.when the form ticket expires the user is redireced to Login page.Also it happens inside a popup window. If user leaves the pop up open and come back after the ticket is expired, it redirects him to the Login inside that pop up.
Then I add a Login control in Authenticate.aspx, after click Login button there is an error like this:
An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 1802 and the SqlException message is: CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.Is there anyone know what the problem that Form authentication cannot directly apply to Dynamic Data site as usual?
I'm doing form authentication with roles to access areas of a website. The authentication is working great, but I'm having trouble with the roles piece. On the page in question (needing to narrow the access), the top lblGrps.text (below) shows I'm in the group I need to be in, while the response.write (also immediately below) reads false for the EdIT group:
I am developing a website in which I am using ASP.NET Form Authentication and everything is working fine as I am expecting. I can authenticate user from login form, I can read user roles from database and can add authenticate ticket in which user roles are stored as user data etc. etc.
Now I want to give user a page where user can update his roles in the database by selecting any role he/she want from the list of checkboxes. I know how to update the user roles in database but I want to know how to update user roles in the authentication cookie after database update.
Let's say in the start user is in "Seller" and "Buyer" role and later he want to become member of "Agent" role as well and he update his roles from the given page and everything is updated in database. Now according to database user is member of three roles but User.IsInRole("Agent") method is returning me false because the new role "Agent" is not updating in the authentication cookie.
How can I update a newly added role in authentication cookie when user is still logged in.
Now my user wants the capability of being able to login to the intranet site as another user. For example, IT guy needs to login on a user's system to set some data.
I have created a standard MS Login Page. However when I try to login on the page I get the message
Your login attempt was not successful. Please try again
I do not have a database (aspnetdb.mdf) storing user information but login against the active directory. Can you use the login form with windows authentication without a database?
