Here is a quote from here: So in short ... you need to look into login page, see what params it uses e.g login=xxx, password=yyy, post it to that page and you will have to manage the cookies too, that is where library like twill etc come into picture. How could I do it using Python and Google App Engine? Can anybody pleas...

Hi all, I am going to use email as a username across the website, however I still need to pre-fill the mandatory username field in User model somehow. Initially I was thinking of using a md5 hash of the email as username, but given the limitation of 30 characters it is not possible. Also I don't think I can use GUIDs for that as they a...
hello, I use a simple login system based on SESSION vars. Once the user logs in, a session var is set that tells my script the user is to be accepted in. I don't use any custom clientside cookie var. I would like to offer the option on the login screen that says "keep me loggued in the whole day". How does one do that in a secure way? ...

After having checked out once the repository to a folder, the svn command line client remembers the username and password (along with the repository url?). So, 2 questions arise: is there a way to make it stop remembering the login info (and ask user/pass every time)? is there a way to make it 'forget' the current login info (to delete...
The following is the piece of java code by using filters that shows the error page at every time if the username and password is also correct. Please help me, I don't have much knowledge on this concept. String sql="select * from reg where username='"+user+"' and pass='"+pwd+"'"; rs=st.executeQuery(sql); if(rs.next()) { chain.doFilt...

I'm going to use the membership system in ASP.net, but need to change it in 2 ways. The database which stores the users is Access, and I want to salt the password(etc) plus ask the user to enter details like links to their facebook pages etc which are stored in the database.

I've two subdomains. Each subdomain has its own authenticated users database. I'm using $auth = Zend_Auth::getInstance(); if($auth->hasIdentity()){ } to check user login credentials. It works prefectly for each individual subdomain. But when I log into one subdomain and try to access 'restricted' page in another subdomain without log...
I am playing a browser based online game and is wondering how it can detect I am trying to login using 2 separate accounts on the same machine. I've tested a few things. First it is not based on detecting same IP since I can login concurrently using firefox/IE and it wont be a good idea to ban users sharing the same IP using a router (...
When I click on my Login link it takes me to the Login.aspx page in the same browser session as expected. But when I click on a page the user needs to be authenticated to see, it redirects to the login.aspx page in a new browswer tab. Thus it now has two tabs open. Anybody know how to stop this behavior?

Hi again. I'm trying to find out: how browsers identify login forms in different sites? Doesn't matter if I'm acessing my GMail account or some personal project, IE/Firefox always knows that that page contains login info. Do they conclude that simply searching for input types = password or there is some cookie information involved? T...

I am trying to integrate my custom user system with Wordpress, and I have recently asked a question on how to redirect requests to wp-login.php to my own login/registration page, but as I was working on the pluggable functions, I realized that requests to wp-login.php can either be for login, registration, or log out. This is set in th...
I'm trying to implement a login system that will be smart enough to redirect a user back to the page they were on before they decided (or were forced to) go to the login page. I know this seems like a similar question to this one, and this one, but they do not address both of my scenarios. There are two scenarios here: User specifica...
Are there any 'best practices' concerning how one should return a user to their original page after logging in to your website, specifically in PHP? e.g. if I'm viewing a StackOverflow question while not logged in, how would you ensure that I return to this question if I logged in? From my research, it seems a lot of advice centers arou...
