Connecting To NTLM/LDAP On Local Machine On Workgroup
Mar 15, 2010
I am very new to NTLM/LDAP and trying to authenticate using NTML running on a local machine. The code provided by Microsoft [URL] seems to work, I just do not know how to connect to it.
I know that the authentication service is running because Contos 8 has been set up to authenticate using NTLM and it is working. I just do not know what the "connection string" should be:
I am trying: LDAP://CN=machinename with no luck.
Dim adAuth As LdapAuthentication = New LdapAuthentication("LDAP://CN=LOCALMACHINENAME")
Dim entry As DirectoryEntry = New DirectoryEntry(_path, domainAndUsername, pwd)

Our company is developing software projects that use a users windows username/password for program authentication. Our programs encrypt the username /password, send them to a web service. The web service decrypts the username/password and authenticates the user against our LDAP using the System.DirectoryServices namespace. This works well. There are two methods, one that validates the user and passes back the user's LDAP info in a datatable, the other passes back a boolean that indicates the user is on the domain. This is working just fine. Over the 4th of July weekend, our domain server hung. While it slowed down the login process for windows while it re-routed to a secondary domain server across the country, all our programs could not validate the users because our local domain controller was down.So I have been asked to update the web services to include a list of domain controllers that can be used if the local one is not available. Below is a snippet of code I use to validate a user:
[code]...
The getinfo function uses the directory services to create an LDAP entry, then do a search based on the account name (windows username) and populates properties for common LDAP information. How can I extend this function, or re-write it, to run down a list of domain controllers found on the network to validate a username? I was thinking of putting the domain in a database, but that requires administration as they change. Is there a way to cycle through the local domain controllers listed on the machine?

I have a MySQL database I've created for my website, [URL]. I want to query the database, but I am unsure how to connect.
This is the code I'm using:
Code:
Dim sConnection As String = "Provider=MySQLProv;Data Source=my_database;User Id=my_user;Password=my_pass;"
Dim bSuccess As Boolean = True
[CODE]............
The MsgBox() returns a message that says: "Error: The 'MySQLProv' provider is not registered on this local machine". All I want to do is access the table in my database, is it possible? (also, without installing anything additionally?)
Does the .NET framework include ways to access MySQL databases easily?

I have been tasked with getting a asp.net (vb.net) talking to an analysis services engine on our production servers. The web server is a separate machine from the web server.The web server runs as the IUSR_ user.The application (of course) works on the development machine which has both IIS and Analysis services on it.The problem I see appears to be a permissions error (returned in the browser by the asp.net app):An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host ....
it is described in a similar post here: http:[url]......I am not a system admin, nor am I an expert in analysis services (why have I been tasked with this you ask? because other people haven't been able to get it working and it has fallen on me). I have tried creating and adding the user (IUSR_) to the sql server and added that user to the role. While that worked on my local machine, it did not work in our production environment where the sql and web servers are separate.

I am trying to connect a simple VB program (Form, button and label) to my local oracle 10g XE and keep getting errors. The most recent errors is the TNS listener
"Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified "
Here is what I have done:
Went to control panel > odbc and created a connection to 10g XE and called it:
oraconn (this was from other tutorial so it is not used in code but still resides)
Copied tutorial about connecting to oracle and have the following code:
Imports System.Data
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client

IIS7 running on Windows Server 2008 R2. Development environment is VWDE 2010.
I'm setting up a simple "machine status" page to monitor a server. I want to display the Drives on the machine, including mapped network drives and show their free space, etc.
I'm using System.IO.DriveInfo.GetDrives() to return a collection of DriveInfo objects. I then itterate that collection to display the relevant information.
The issue I'm having is that only local drives appear. (A:, C: and D:) No mapped drives "Network Locations" appear in the collection.
I'm thinking it has to do with the user account that's executing the code (if that makes any sense). So if the code is executing under the user "ASPNET" (or whatever it is) the drives would have to be mapped under that user. As it happens, I have the server set up like a workstation and it logs in automatically under the user with the mapped drives.
What I've done:
- I have set the Web Site's Anonymous Authentication user to that same user
- I have set the Identity of the Application Pool to which my web site is assigned to be that same user.

I have a program written in VB 2008 express. It connects to an Access database via Jet4.0 OLEDB. It works fine on my computer running windows xp. It works fine on computers running Vista and Windows 7 that also have Access installed. Howerver when run on a computer with Windows 7 that does not have Access installed. The following Error Message appears whenever there is an attempt to access the database:
The 'MS JET.OLEDB 4.0' provider is not registered on the local machine.Reviewing MS info, it appears that mdjet40.dll is found in XP and earlier and that syswow64.dll is found in Vista and later.What do I need to do to make my program run on all versions of Windows with or without Access installed?

I have a text file on a website that I have the direct URL address to. For example, http://www.example.com/thisFile.txt .
I would like to copy it to a predefined path on the local machine. For example, C:Documents and SettingsAll Users .
What can I use to copy the file from the URL to the predefined path on the local machine. A simple CopyFile doesn't seem to handle URL addresses.

I currently have a part of my program that uploads an image file MainChart.png from a set location (locally) to a set remote location(on the ftp server). What I would now like to do is be able to upload more than one file at the same time.
What I am currently doing is repeating the same block of code, but changing the image file name from MainChart.png to another one of the image file names, so have about 8 instances of this block of code, Where the file name is just changed.
Does anyone know how I can do this in just one block of code, rather than the program having to keep calling another Sub and logging onto the FTP site each time for each image file that I want to upload?
Private Sub FtpMainChart()
' FTP_URL, FTP_UserName & FTP_Password, are variables that hold the FTP credentials, declared earlier in the code.

Is it possible to point the install of ClickOnce to a directory of my choice on the local computer instead of caching it in Documents and Settingsuser? some place like c:Program FilesFoo Apps for example? I like the ClickOnce stuff a lot and especially the update on run functionality, but would like it independent from the user...
Dev/Usr Environment info: I am using VB Express '08 and SQL Express '05 for my applications in a corporate networking environment and the users will be installing from a network share drive. I have tested this and it works fine, just the location seems to be undesirable.

good database that I can use on a local machine to store names/addresses etc. and that integrates easily into .Net 2.0.I have used MySQL a fair bit, so something along that route would be great but without the need to install additional software on the computer or connect externally to a server.

I am in the following situation: I have been requested to write an application for managing where we have customers - this must flag up when we try to add a customer too close to another one, so must be able to calculate distances based on post codes.I have chosen to use ASP.Net VB because I am fairly good at that and I like that the browser does all of the layout for me (using Java or C# would mean having to position each element individually).I have copied a few files from the company's website (which I also wrote) and modified them to account for the database structure we need for the new app.I have designed the database to account for the requirements of the new app.I have set up a website in IIS on port 81 through which to view the app.

I'm trying to take a program I have and convert it to work in mutiple languages. When I put it in Spanish, I ended up hard coding it all, which makes the code much larger and required me to get all the phrases I want translated into spanish, which I'd rather avoid doing as I add languages.
From what I understand, VB.NET has the ability to translate text based on the local language of the machine I'm using (I think it's taken somewhere from this: Control PanelClock, Language, and RegionRegion and Language).
