Authorized HTTP Commands Via HTTPWebRequest / Response
Nov 23, 2010
I have a device with an embedded webserver that accepts URL-based commands and queries. The device provides a user-privilege schema, so I have administrative accounts, operator accounts, and plain user accounts. Certain commands and queries require authorization via username and password to establish the privilege level available.
I'm creating an app that edit a post in a ipforum with httpwebrequest and httpwebresponse in vb.net.I use fiddler2 to get the post forms.I successfully create the code to connect to the site the authentication works well and i don't found problems. But to edit a post i don't find how to do it this is the request of the site taken from fiddler:
This is the short instruction: 1) Make a single HTTP-POST request to the following URL in XML format. [URL]={password}&user={username} 2) The xml form field that is posted should be named "createorder". I don't get the last part with naming the xml form field. What the xml form field means (stands for) in this context?
im making a packet sniffer by using Sharppcap library.the problem is unchunking and gunzipping chunked and gzipped HTTP response.here is a example byte array that needs to be unchunked and gunzipped.
i have just started learning about httpwebrequest and response to open webpages and get/post info. Anyways i have a working project that connects to a webbrowsewr useing a proxy but this does not workj for httpwebrequest. Im guessing its totally different for httpwebrequest but i have no idea how to work this :/
I'm looking at a website using Internet Explorer and Firefox. In each browser I select view source and see the website's URL in the links. These links were concatenated together using HttpContext.Current.Request.Url.Host in the code behind. However, when I use netcat or Burp Suite v1.3.03, looking at the same links I see the servername instead of the website's URL.
My question is - Why does view source in the browser display different links in the page source than what netcat or Burp Suite outputs? Is the browser rewriting stuff? My thought to correct is to have a web.config setting which is used to create the links. Next question - Does anyone know of a configuration change to make to IIS to return the URL instead of the server name or a .NET function that I should be calling instead to get the URL that the website is running as.
I am getting the following error while browsing my asp.net page deployed in IIS..I am using active directory data retrieval in my website and credentials to the active directory is stored in the web.config file You are not authorized to view this page You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied. Please try the following:Contact the Web site administrator if you believe you should be able to view this directory or page. Click the Refresh button to try again with different credentials. HTTP Error 401.1 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials.Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 401. Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled Authentication, Access Control, and About Custom Error Messages.
I use web methods in a couple of places in the intranet site im working on and they work fine, however one page is constantly throwing a HTTP 401 error every time I try access the web method.
Im not sure how to aproach this issue, I have tried commenting everything out of the web method, and still get the 401 error, even a basic connect to the database just doing SELECT 1 does not show up when I watch the DB with profiler.
My web.config is the same for all pages in the intranet and I cannot see any differences in my ASP.Net page compared to pages where web methods work.[code]...
Anyone know anymore .DLL Files that are like this?
HTTP client component for communicating with HTTP servers. [URL]
Im looking for something that acts like Web Browser Control But it is not. It should be like HttpWebRequest Class But handle the stuff properly like a Web Browser Control Does.
i made a tcp/ip application using the .NET TcpListener class, my problem is that sometimes (about 30 / 4000) the connection between the client and the server got interrupted in the middle and the server response to the client is lost.is there a way to know if the server response was successfully sent to the client without the client response back?
Im trying to create a software which can post into yahoogroups.I've done trying to log in yahoomail but my problem is when I am going to post in yahoogroups, I am turning back in to yahoo log in page.
I am facing a strange problem with listbox. I need to scrab whois information. I used the following code to get source code of the whois query. It works fine if I use a textbox. But I need to use this for multiple url and therefore need to use lixtbox to loop through url list. Unfortunately when I use listbox1.selecteditem or listbox1.text it does not work. But this same code works with webbrowser.
Dim request As System.Net.HttpWebRequest = System.Net.HttpWebRequest.Create("http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/results.jsp?domain=" & listbox1.selecteditem) request.UserAgent = "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705)"
I'm building this class to download files in parts/sections/segments. In .NET 4.0, I can use this code to specify the range to download from
long startPos = int.MaxValue+1; HttpWebRequest.AddRange(startPos);
and it works because there is a long overload for the AddRange method. When I looked up the .NET 3.5 version, I realised the AddRange() method allows using int only. The possible workaround would be using the AddRange(string, int) or AddRange(string, int, int) methods. Since the class will have to work in .NET 3.5, I'll have to go with the string specification but unfortunately I can't seem to find any sample code that shows how to specify ranges using this procedure in .NET 3.5. Can anyone show be how to do this?As the first code sample I wrote shows, I would like to specify a range of type long instead of int. Using type int allows requesting for byte ranges only up to 2GB but long allows requesting for byte ranges beyong 2GB.
The question therefore is: How do I specify byte ranges of 2GB or higher on HttpWebRequest in .NET 3.5?
Code: Public Function getHtml(ByVal url As String) As String dim objrequest as httpwebrequest dim objresponse as httpwebresponse Try
[Code]...
My problem is: for some url that function takes a long time. So, i just want to cancel the response after a given time. I tried with a timer control but that is not working. What to do? How to modify this code so this function will return result within a given time whether httpwebresponse completed or not?
how to write a httpwebrequest, however i'm unsure of how to write it with a if...statement. I have a file that I need to download, however it ususally doesn't get posted until sometime Tuesday afternoon, so what I need to do is have the program continually check say once about every 5 minutes until the file has been posted and then download it.I'm presumming using an if...statement is the best way to accomplish this, basically if true(file exists) then proceed, else wait 5 minutes and rerun process.
How to successfully log into a DSL-Router (Model: Speedport w504v Type A).I wrote a function usinig HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse. So far this function is not finished and is only for finding out the right login process.[cde]...
use a If then Statement with Httpwebrequest? Let me explain my senario. I have a file that needs to be downloaded from a web site once it is posted. Currently one of our staff manually goes out to the web site multiple times to check to see if the file has been posted, they then download the file, extract it's contents and use some of the info for reports that must be sent out the same day.
I am trying to write a program that goes to a webpage and gets the html and puts it into a mshtml document but I always get an error. I know this example works when the webpage doesn't require Credentials. By the way i'm using vb 2008 express.
Dim theCredential As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password") Dim Doc As mshtml.IHTMLDocument2
I'm pretty sure that I need to use Httpwebrequest "POST" method for this although Im unsure as to the exact syntax to use. I need to do a xml query to a remote web site, something like <node>" "</node, <price>" "</price> and then collect that data and import it directly into a sql table. Any suggestions or directions?
I have a program that will register you for a certain website using textboxes and stuff but I have an invisible web browser and it just enters the text into the right spots and clicks the button.I was told that I can get rid of the web browser and do the whole thing faster and easier using "HttpWebRequest and HttpWebResponse".
