Hide Web Link From Users Without Role Assigned?
May 9, 2012
I currently have it so users belong to either the 'admin' role or 'user' role. Rules have been setup on folders in my application so if a user belongs to either of the groups they can click on a web link and it takes them to the page. However, if a new user registers they belong to no role, and when they click on the web link it redirects them to the homepage (see code below). This is great, but, i wondered is it possible to hide that web link if the user did not belong to a specific role preventing them click on it. Also if a user belonged to no role could they be redirected to a page to tell them they need a role assigned?
<authentication mode="Forms">
<forms loginUrl="~/Homepage1.aspx" timeout="2880" />
</authentication>

I dont use this in the current application but have in the past, this checks if the user has been authenticated, i wondered whether i could use a similar IF statement for:If user.identity does not belong to 'user' or 'admin' role, then redirect them to page and display error?
If User.Identity.IsAuthenticated = True Then
Dim myUser As MembershipUser
Dim objUser As Object[code].....

I have an asp.net web forms application that uses asp.net membership and URL Routing.Because of the way Roles work, i cant put an "AND" or "OR", etc. in the allow/deny tags of the web.config file that resides in each folder.This is a business website that that is being ported from a vb.net win forms project that contianed many apps. (The win forms project have a custom authentication system.)The web app is structured in a way to mimic the desktop suites and a folder was created for each app.There are also common folders where any user of any app can generate a report.

I have an website that has a datagrid that is pulling information from an SQL database. The user then clicks a link from that grid and is redirected to another page. My question is if a user clicks the first link and is redirected and then a second user clicks the link is there a way to stop that second user from being redirected or sent back to the first page after they click the link? So it would have to somehow detect on the second page that a second user has clicked the same link. Hope this is clear. This is being programmed in VS 2008 vb.net and SQL 2008

i wanted to ask how to make picturebox1 ,to which functions are already assigned, perform the same function as picturebox2 ,to which no functions are assigned.For example:I have already made picturebox1 and have assigned it alot of function like when play button is pressed then picturebox1.visible = true and when we press pause button picturebox1.visible = false. So now i decided to make a theme and have to remove the picturebox1 and want to allow the picturebox2 to havefunction of picturebox1.But when i disable the theme the function of picturebox1 should go back to picturebox1.

I have an asp.net web app that uses forms-based authentication, a SqlMembershipProvider (using an encrypted password format), and a SqlRoleProvider. I need to know if it's possible to administer the users (create new users, assign them to roles, etc.) from a windows application - the powers that be don't want any administrative functionality in the web app itself.Here is the membership provider definition from web.config:
<membership defaultProvider="MyProvider">
<providers>
<add name="MyProvider"

1.I�d like to publish a free vb.net desktop application for the users to download and use meanwhile I�d like to collect usage information ex: user ip address, user�s registration information, used features, time spent� if the user allows the report to be sent back.
2.Also , in order for the user to be able to use the application, he�ll have to register it then, everytime, before the application loads, it gets verified online that it was registered, maybe validate the registration information or a valid user name and password, no critical personal information. The target of this step is for the application to be used exclusively by the registered user and maybe on his computer only.

I'm curious if it is possible to hide a group of text boxes from view in a form until a particular condition is met, and to have a custom set of text boxes for that condition. To give an example; I want radio buttons offering choices for a manner of searching records, the user selects one and then a specific set of text boxes are displayed for the user to utilize, if a different option is chosen a different set of text boxes will be shown. Is this something that can be done?

I have an ASP.NET application on our company's intranet. And a funky security requirement.
I need to check to see if a given username is in a certain role. I cannot use
Page.User.IsInRole("MyDomainMyGroup")
because
Page.User.Identity.Name
Returns an empty string. Because of some lovely specifications for this program, I have to keep anonymous access enabled in IIS. Seems to rule out any page.user.identity stuff.
So I did find a way to (at least) get the current user (from System.Environment.UserName), but I need to bounce it against the domain group to see if they're in it. Or, better yet, get a list of users within a given domain so I can check myself. Something like...
Dim UserName as String
UserName = System.Environment.UserName
If User(UserName).IsInRole("MyDomainMyGroup") Then
[Code]....

I'm trying to create a routine in my asp.net's main page that will see if the current user is a member of a Windows domain group. The site is hosted in IIS and is visible through our intranet.
GlenFerrieLive listed this code (which I'd like to use) in an earlier post:
UserName = System.Environment.UserName
If Roles.IsUserInRole(UserName, "MyDomainMyGroup") Then
[Code]....
Problem is, now I'm getting the configuration error 'Default Role Provider could not be found'.
How can I get around this? I just need to see if the current user exists in a specific domain group.

This desktop app written in VB.Net within VStudio 2008 fails when one of our "power users" tries to run the program: Select permission denied on object 'AcctLogon', database 'MDS', owner 'dbo'. The author of the app is out for a few weeks and I am the "fixer" while she's out. Both of our logins for SQL have permissions for db_owner in the MDS database but our user does not. The user has a Windows user login for this instance of SQL. This login has permissions for the public role only in the MDS database.

I am curious as to the proper technique to use SQL Server's AppRole with a LINQ to SQL Class. I understand I have to establish the intial connection with no connection pooling. However, do I simply call the SQL stored procedure sp_setapprole using standard LINQ before executing any of my methods that interact with the database, or is there a better way to enable and use AppRole within the LINQ to SQL class?

Iv'e been away from Visual Basic for the past 3 or 4 years so I am a bit vague on the details that I am looking for.
I got myself my first programming job at the company that I work for and I start Monday.
The company has little programming knowledge (well I assumed this as they said they do not have a dedicated programming IDE at my interview) and relies on ad-hoc VBA scripts to perform necessary processing on data. This is all fine and I can deal with that but there is a project that I wish to work on and I think a standalone dedicated application would be much better than extending Excel with VBA.
Now after being with the company for 10+ years, I know they are conservative at spending money so asking them to buy Visual Studio is not really an option so I'm going to suggest that instead of using VBA, I will design an application using Visual Basic Express.
All I need to know is, if there are any kind of limitation to database accessing with the express editions? (Iv'e only ever used OLEDB connected to small MS Access files) I do not know what type of database the company uses yet, but I do know they use ODBC to connect to it, and rely on Sage to do 90% of their work.

I'm creating a custom Role provider based on the ASP.NET Role provider. I have 3 tables. One for Users, one for Roles, one for UsersInRoles.The Users table has no password column because the users are authenticated with ActiveDirectory. That's my approach so far. I can't get the cusstom Role Provider to work, anyone has the same situation like me. How do you make a custom Role provider works with AD?

I have a page with a gridview. The gridview has "Enable Editing" and "Enable Deleting" checked by default. I want to be able to "uncheck" either of these in the code-behind page_load event.
I found this SO question but this hides the whole commandcolumn. I only want to hide the "Edit" or "Delete" hyperlink based on the role of a user. How would I go about doing this?

I am using ASP.NET MVC to build a site. I am using VB as programming language.I have couple of questions.
1 I have created a role "Manager". How Do I check if a user belongs to this particular role?
For now I am using If My.User.IsInRole("Manager") Then 'Direct to a view Else 'Direct to another view End If Is this the right way? 2 How to use the Authorize attribute to limit access to a Function?
I know in C# it goes [Authorize (Roles ="Manager")] but not sure in VB. Also can I define property to redirect a user who does not have "Manager" role to a particular view when trying to access this function .
