I've created a self-hosted WCF REST service (with some extra's from WCF REST Starter Kit Preview 2). This is all working fine. I'm now trying to add Basic authentication to the service. But I'm hitting some rather large roadblocks in the WCF stack which is preventing me from doing this. It appears that the HttpListener (which self-host...

If a user logs in the PHP portion of the website, can I customize the content for him/her in the Rails section without requiring a second login? I'm relatively new to Ruby on Rails so that's why I'm...

For example, http:// www.example.com is for viewing content and https:// manage.example.com is used by content contributors.

So I play an online game that's web based and I'd like to automate certain things with it using C#. Problem is that I can't simply use WebClient.DownloadData() because I need to be logged in to actually recieve the source. The other alternative was to use the built-in web browser control but that doesn't give me access to source code. An...
I'd like to create a piece of code that can be embedded on many different websites (widget). Is there any way that my code can identify a user without them logging in? I.e, can I use any of the established identity mechanisms floating around the web to reliably identify them across instances of this widget? I don't need to (nor shoul...
I have a very simple Ruby on Rails app which uses acts_as_solr plugin to index and search PDF files. The basic idea of the app is: all PDF files located in myRoRapp/public/PDFfiles/example.pdf are full-text search-able. Usage of the webapp returns links to all PDFs that meet the search criteria. The app is user authenticated using nift...

I found a custom implementation online that involves a series redirects and an encrypted querystring parameter. MrUser logs into http://www.foo.com MrUser clicks a link to http://www.bar.com/page.aspx MrUser is not aut...
Using a WSDL that requires a SOAP HEADER for Authentication (fragment below) code that gets generated when creating a web service client via the "WSDL Importer" has no concept of the Authentication Headers and there are no examples in BCB6 C++ Examples/WebServices directories that show how, and nothing on Web that I can find. Anyone wit...
When the person opens my app, I want to display a button. The user clicks this button, and it opens a browser (embedded, of course) inside the app, allowing the user to LOGIN through that web page. Of course, when the person logs in, it only logs in to that web server. The web service now knows that the user is logged in. As the user ...
I know how to configure basicHttpBinding for NTLM authentication, but can't figure out a way to do the same for netTcpBinding. Does netTcpBinding support NTLM? If so, how to force WCF service to use NTLM? BTW a well known method using identity element for some reason didn't work at all. I am looking for something like this - clientC...

To enable single sign-on for a web application and a web application in a virtual directory, I set the machinekey in both apps to the same: <machineKey validationKey="xxx" decryptionKey="yy" validation="SHA1" /> The single sign on works just fine, but existing users can't sign in any more; their passwords are rejected. The machinekey ...
When I access a HTTP server using the standard Java API (java.net.URLConnection), the credentials are "cached" after the first successful authentication, and subsequent calls to Authenticator.setDefault() have no effect. So, I need to restart the application in order to use different credentials. I don't observe this effect when Basic A...
