I have a application that prints labels on a community computer.I would like to add a Windows authentication login form to allow any of our employees to access a configuration screen.The request would bring up the login form if the login passed (meaning the username / password was correct) the configuration form would open.Otherwise the user would just get a warning Msgbox.So far all of the examples I could find either apply ASP.NET or use the logged-in user. Not for additional access as I'm trying to do.
View 7 RepliesI am working on a windows application and I am developing application using VB.Net. I want to create one form for Username and password and I want to create a table in database which will contain all the user details with UID and Password. So I am planning to use either Windows authentication or SQL authentication on database side for allowing user to connect database with my application But I am curious to know the best practices which are widely used across. Can anyone share the blogs,articles or your own experiences.

I can get it to upload if I specify the credentials but it will not work with system.net.credentialcache.defaultcredentials. It just gives me 3 empty strings and I get a 401 unauthorized error. I have seen a few threads that say you cannot use it with Windows Forms Applications. Is this true? Here is my code:

We have an application in Access for UI and MS Sql server as Database server. We now decided to build a new application in web application for UI. This web application is only used by the employees who work for the company. But later we decided to host this web application on outside server. So the user (from this company only.) can able to login anywhere in the world. First I thought creating the web application using 'windows' authentication thinking we may be using it as an intranet web application. But now my manager asked me to use both 'Forms' and as well as 'Windows' for using this application and this web application will be hosted on outside server. I really don't catch his point of using both types of authentication.
View 1 RepliesOur company runs Windows Server 2008 R2 and as part of the normal login procedure you type your username and password. IT sets the domain when you get your PC so that is all good. So, when you open IE, the intranet sight detects that you are person XXX YYY and then logs you into the site automatically as the right person.
Now is there any way that I can do the same with an application written in C# or VB.NET. I.e., I would like the user to not have to log in as they have already done so during Windows log in, and then use the application as the individual user. This is for loggin purposes and specific rights for each group.

View 1 RepliesWe have a current implementation of a log file manager where it's two main purposes are to 1. rename files generated by other programs with a date/time stamp so they create new ones, and 2. delete files older then X amount of days from a specified folder. The program also makes it's own log file which records when these events happen.Do you think the Logging Application Block would be useful in this instance? The old file manager is written in VB 6.0 and an upgrade to VB .Net would not take too long, but is it worth it to try and implement LAP into it?

View 2 Replieshow to use Windows Authentication in a WPF app. I wouldn't have thought that it would be any different than in any non-WPF app, but it seems that it is. I want to go into my project Properties -> Application and ensure that Windows Authentication is on, but that option is not available in a WPF app (as the following document confirms).

If I ignore all that and just look at My.User.Name (VB), it is empty. This tells me that somehow Windows Authentication is not enabled.My plan is to use a PrincipalPermission attribute to restrict access to certain parts of my app (or perhaps the entire app, by applying it to Application_Startup()).

I've tried Application Pools with 'Network Service', with Named Accounts and setting the pipeline mode to 'Integrated' and 'Classic'. The above code works properly in Server 2003/IIS6, but I haven't been able to make it work on Windows Server 2008R2/IIS 7.5.
I buit a ASP page that gets the users information who is logged into the computer ie username etc. This was using IIS6 Now I've moved over to IIS7 on Server 08, I set it up to use "Widows Authentication", however when i run my ASP.NET Page it uses the account NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE to do its work.Ive looked all over online, and cant find a way to fix this.I just want to pass the user credetials from logging into the computer, to the web.I've made sure that I have this in my web.config
<authentication mode="Windows"/>
<identity impersonate="true"/>
When I run this the site from Visual Web Developer and it creates the site, it pulls back the correct information.However, when I Then to my browser and check this and it dosent pull back the correct account, it pulls back that NT account.etc. but it always seems to pass the same wrong account NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE it should be my accountname I am logged in with.
I have an mvc intranet application using windows authentication. It currently has one controller with three actions.
The first action (index) should be available to everyone, this is no problem. The second and the third actions should only be available to users in a specific DOMAIN. However the tag only gives me 2 options: Roles or Users. I tried using Users and setting it to 'DOMAIN*' and 'DOMAIN?' but that doesn't work.
Now that my application uses windows authentication to connect to the database, how will I authenticate the username and password that the user supplied? I've read about WindowsPrincipal and WindowsIdentity but still I have not found a way to do this.
View 5 RepliesI am reading the article at: [URL].. Forms Authentication in ASP.NET 2.0". I am using VS 2008 and .Net Framework 3.5. I don't know if this makes a difference, so please let me know.
A user logs on to our system in the morning Based on their Windows Authentication, they can access several intranet applications. For a particular application, the user has to select their Organization or Position or Location.
Based on the user's Windows Authentication, once the user selects one of the three above and clicks a "Submit" button, a second page is launched that shows certain information about the selection based on the User's authentication.
For example, if User selects Organization, the following information will be returned based on the Organization THEY are a member of. They can not access information from OTHER organizations, ONLY their own based on their login credentials. This information returned as a result of the dropdownlist selected value includes: street address, city, state, zipcode, Bus. Unit #, etc. appears in labels on the second page.
The labels can be dynamically created at runtime. (I dont know if a User control can be created to do this, since the "Position" and "Location" will contain the same address information, and it doesn't matter at the moment). I just want to populate the labels on the second page (or on Postback) based on the User's log in credentials after they click the "Submit" button. Or, if they don't have to click a button, just have the information complete based on the selected value of the dropdownlist control.

View 7 RepliesI have a database (using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express) that is currently being used quite heavily in a functioning application. I am porting this application over to Windows Authentication rather than the current basic authentication system (or lack thereof) that exists.The easiest way that I know to set this up involves using the aspnet_reegsql.exe file to set up some tables for me. This obviously creates its basic tables, such as dbo.aspnet_Roles, dbo.aspnet_Users and dbo.aspnet_UsersInRoles.In the current database, there exist tables named dbo.Users, dbo.UserRole, and dbo.UserRoleMapping. Many of the stored procedures that are written currently for this database rely on these tables.

View 1 RepliesMy company uses ActiveDirectory, and naturally the IT department wants to maintain control over it and not give control to other users. I'm developing an ASP.NET app (for internal use only) using an SQL Server 2008 database.My question is, how can I BEST use the .NET namespaces and SQL Server to manage access to the app within the organization at the application (or possibly DB) level? I would like the user to be authorized based on their network username as provided by ActiveDirectory.On a side note, I would also like to access their AD contact information.
From my understanding I can use the ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider class or Domain Services in the System.DirectoryServices namespace. There's also LDAP which apparently is another possibility. I'm having a hard time making sense of it all, and much less which is the best option and how to implement it. Can anyone provide me with some direction and possibly some simple sample code?
I have a vb.net web application running on a local server with IIS6 installed. I was using Integrated Windows authentication for allowing uses to access the data in the application which is a combination of flat files on a local directory and db information. That worked great until another dataset was brought online and incorperated into the existing application. The problem is the flatfiles for the second dataset are stored on another server. So, although user could see the file files in the application window, if they attempted to open one it would say access denied on the directory.
I explained this to our network administrator who explained the users didn't have access to that server (even though both servers had the same permissions) and that the application wouldn't work. The only way in which I got it to work was I had to
Enable Anonymous access and use a windows user account for that access, which works. However, the application requires the users NT account for various reasons. How can I get this to work with Integrated Windows Authentication?
