Access Current User Information Via LDAP?

May 24, 2012

How can I access the current user information via LDAP and VB.Net 2.0*? I found a vbscript that works, but I'd rather have it done in .net

Dim objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
Dim strUser = objSysInfo.UserName 'returns current user account
Dim objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUser) 'queries active directory for user account

I'm using the framework 2.0 because it is for more likely in my XP/Vista/7 World to have 2.0 installed than 3.5 or 4.0

How To Store Current User Information, Security, And Preferences

Aug 20, 2009

I need to have the ability to have a Global variable/class that stores some basic information about the currently logged in user including that user's preferences, security rights, UserID, etc. This information will be needed by any/every part of my application. In the past I have either used a Public variable/class in a vb.net module for this purpose. I'm trying to get away from my old ways of doing things and was curious what people currently do for this functionality.

I am thinking a singleton or 2 regarding preferences and security but am not sure if that is the best way to go.

EDIT: I asked this when I was too sleepy last night. This is an n-Tier WinForms application.

.net - Verify User Log In Using LDAP?

Nov 17, 2011

I have not been able to successfully verify a user with LDAP for an ASP.NET web application. I have done so on our own network against Active Directory, but this is against a server outside of our network that is OID (Oracle Internet Directory).Usually, I use the following code with no problem.

Dim myDirectoryEntry As New System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("LDAP://1.2.3.4:999/OU=SomeOU,DC=Something,DC=com")
myDirectoryEntry.AuthenticationType = System.DirectoryServices.AuthenticationTypes.Sealing
myDirectoryEntry.AuthenticationType = System.DirectoryServices.AuthenticationTypes.Secure
Try

[Code]...

After that, I haven't been able to find a method to verify a user's log in information with their password and then pull back some information.

Accessing LDAP For User / Password Authentication

May 17, 2012

I need to authenticate a user against LDAP/AD (windows 2008 r2) so I can leverage the domains password rules etc... I found code that will allow me to validate a users ID and Password entered into a form (using System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry) but my problem is if the user enters an invalid password more that AD is configured to allow, the account gets locked out. Is there anyway around this?

Return User Details After Ldap Authentication (asp.net)?

May 15, 2012

I am trying to set up a new internal system for my client currently, they insisted on integrating the login with AD, which makes sense, and i have managed that with no problem. However what i also want to do, after authentication, is to store some user details / attributes as session variables. I have the following code to aithenticate the user:

'this function authenticates against AD - very simple and works nicely.
Function AuthenticateUser(path As String, user As String, pass As String) As Boolean
Dim de As New DirectoryEntry(path, user, pass, AuthenticationTypes.Secure)

[code]....

which works nicely, and once the function returns me a True, i set Session("LoggedIn") as True.what i need to do is (hopefully within the above function) save the user's name, and 2 other custom atributes from within the user's AD profile.How would i access those (hypothetically)

Asp.net - LDAP User Attribute Request Returns Unusual Results?

May 31, 2012

I'm struggling to return user details from AD using LDAP, after i have authenticated that the user exists. I am using a simple auth method as follows:

Function AuthenticateUser(path As String, user As String, pass As String) As Boolean
Dim de As New DirectoryEntry(path, user, pass, AuthenticationTypes.Secure)
Try
Dim ds As DirectorySearcher = New DirectorySearcher(de)
Dim result As SearchResult = ds.FindOne()

[Code]...

the problem is that "distinguishedName" returns "DC=our-domain,DC=co,DC=uk" and "name" returns just "our-domain", not the name of the user that has just been auth'ed

Note: the displayName.text outputs are purely for debug purposes.I have tried various combos of requests but nothing seems to return USER details. ETA: to the security police: this is all within a https connection, I'm not sending passwords about in plain text!

MySQL Count Rows Count Rows And Gain Access To Other Information In A Row Based On Provoided Information

Oct 8, 2009

I have a fair bit of experience with VB.NET and C# (In this case I chose VB.NET, blame my laziness), but I do most of my professional work using PHP. I have no experience what so ever in using any database with VB.NET let alone MySQL.Just FYI, at the moment I am only trying to Query the database to gather the information required to activate. The Activation wizard and algorithm building (which is finished anyway), and everything else will come soon. I chose the MySQL database because I have experience with it, and it seems the best option for remote usage.The whole idea already works in PHP, I'm just have major issues moving it accross into VB.NET (Using the MySQL Connector.NET);I understand the basics, and all I need to know how to do is Count Rows and gain access to the other information in a row based on provoided information (in PHP, through mysql_ result)

So, here goes nothing, this is the Query code I am using in PHP to complete the job I want to do in VB.NET. [code] As you can see, I basically need to get the PHP code into VB.NET to fit into the 'btnQueryDB.Click' Command in VB.NET. By Equivalent, the Product ID in VB.NET will come from 'txtPID' and similar, Serial Number will come from txtSNUM. Once counted to be 1, the Activation Code and Status will be fed into 2 other text boxes in the form. (acCode, and acStatus).
